Faith First Early Learning Center

The mission of Faith First is to provide a Christ-centered, safe and nuturing environment with developmentally appropriate programs for 3 and 4 year old children.  Our child-centered curriculum creates an opportunity for each child to succeed by providing experiences that foster spiritual, social, emotional, physical and academic growth as well as school readiness skills and assist the child to become a self-motivated, confident, life long learner.
