CHILDCARE
Welcome!
We look forward to each morning and afternoon with your children. At before & after school care, we keep children safe and happy, and build strong relationships with one another and with Jesus.
Messiah’s Childcare is a licensed, non-profit childcare for children ages 3 to 13 years. Our staff have gone through background checks and training.
We look forward to welcoming and serving your family, and building strong Christ-centered relationships with you and your child!
