Where children grow intellectually, physically, emotionally, and spiritually through part-day enrichment programs.
It's a place for childhood...come and play!

We believe that parents are their child's best expert and
first teacher! In personal faith, we respect each family’s beliefs while sharing the love of Jesus Christ through example, and stories.

We believe that children learn best by cooperating, creating, socializing, imagining, observing, reporting, and serving!

We provide a physically safe environment for the children and create an environment that supports experimentation, questions, success, and failure—one in which children trust they are loved for who they are, not for what they do.

We believe in the importance of strengthening connections with each other & with families to build a better community.

Faith Lutheran Programs for Young Children (PYC) offers a variety of classes and age groups to meet the social and academic needs of children and families. All classes for children 3-5 have a maximum of 14 children with two teachers.

Our Preschool Charter requires all lead teachers to have completed a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood, Elementary or Special Education or a related field with extensive experience working with children from the ages of 0-5. Most of our teachers have raised their own children or are in the process of raising school-age children.

Child Safety: All parents and caregivers who have regular contact with children in our preschool classes or playgroups are required to complete Illinois Department of Children and Family Services' (DCFS) Child Abuse and Neglect Tracking System (CANTS) Authorization in order to enroll a child in our programs.

Nothing is more important to us than the safety and well being of the children in our care.

All staff have full FBI fingerprint background checks as well as the CANTS background check.
