Our Class Rooms
Under the Sea ages 2.5 to 3.5 Down by the Creek ages 3.5 to 4.5 Arctic Friends

 

The children are surrounded by a Christian atmosphere of respect and a loving appreciation for each person and for the wonders of God’s world. Each child is encouraged to progress at his/her own rate of speed toward enriched experiences, self-discipline, and the ability to make choices. We sincerely hope that your child’s years at Sonshine Daycare and Preschool will be a very positive transition into the academic world. It is our intention to develop a program that challenges your child, builds self-esteem, respect for others and prepares them socially, emotionally and spiritually for the upcoming challenges that face them through life.
