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.
Happy Graduation
Small Beginnings Class of 2020!
What a wonderful year we have had! Our 3s have grown so much! We've seen our 4s & 5s do so many new things too! Please enjoy this graduation video for our 4s & 5s. It's not our "usual" but it still should make your heart swell with pride. Congratulations graduates! Remember that Jesus Loves YOU and will be with you wherever you are. Keep spreading His love.
Create
A child's imagination is one of the best things about them! When its time to create something new its fun to see how each kids project is something different
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.
