Our Philosophy
Small Beginnings Christian Preschool is an extension of the mission of the Maumee United Methodist Church. The Preschool is a place where children and families are touched with the love and grace of God and their faith is nurtured.
​
We believe we must nurture the whole child; spiritually, emotionally, physically, socially and academically. We believe quality learning experiences foster the natural learning abilities of young children.
Curriculum
Our program offers a Christian atmosphere in which the importance of every child's individuality and positive self image are stressed. Social growth and kindergarten readiness are perpetuated through developmentally appropriate activities related to readiness skills in basic subject areas.
