early childhood center

The First United Methodist Church Early Childhood Center is committed to be a program for church families and the Stillwater community at large. The educational program is of nonsectarian, Judeo-Christian style and is designed to nurture individual needs of children, providing them with an opportunity to grow and develop through independence, decision making and problem solving. A warm, relaxed and safe setting, a well trained staff, and developmentally appropriate equipment and activities provide ideal opportunities for social, emotional, physical, aesthetic, and intellectual growth.
