ECC Logo

Welcome to St. Andrew's Early Childhood Center! Exciting times lie ahead for your preschool child. Our Early Childhood Center provides an environment in which the spiritual, social, emotional, intellectual and physical growth of the child is fostered. Being a Catholic Center, we incorporate Bible Stories, prayer, and Christian values into our daily lessons. We instill the importance of each unique individual and promote the worth of each child's ideas, feelings and actions.

Daily activities center around appropriate developmental levels for each age. Intellectual and physical activities (both gross motor and fine motor) are included each day to challenge and stimulate the growing child. Children participate in arts and crafts, music class, storytelling, cutting and pasting, sand and water play, nature walks and in-house field trips. Color, shape, letters, time and number concepts are taught at your child's level of understanding.

Most importantly, the children learn on a daily basis how to play with their peers in a cooperative manner, learning to share with others and create friendships. We work together with parents to broaden the experience of their preschool child and to help each child find happiness and security in his/her ever-expanding world.
