Our Mission
At Early Beginnings, we believe that a Child Development Center should be an extension of the family. We strive to create an environment where children can grow emotionally, cognitively, and physically, all within a Christian atmosphere. Our goal is not just to provide childcare, but to provide a comprehensive education that incorporates spiritual, physical, intellectual, social, and emotional development.

Our qualified and experienced staff are dedicated to creating a warm and welcoming environment that makes every child feel valued and supportive.
Christian Preschool
Our Christian preschool program is designed to introduce children to the basics of Christianity and to help them develop a strong spiritual foundation. Our chapel program, led by founder Rev. Tom Winstead, includes music, books, scripture, and prayer, as well as regular prayer times before meals. We also offer Bible classes for children in our toddler rooms through Pre-K.
