Half-Day Childcare in Downtown Raleigh
Welcome
to Edenton Street United Methodist Church's
Early Childhood Program
A Half-Day Childcare in Downtown Raleigh
The Early Childhood Program encourages independence and self-regulation in each child while developing lasting relationships between the families and the staff. We weave Conscious Discipline practices into each day to support the children during these formative years. Our preschool is a play based school focusing on the social and emotional growth of each individual child, while fostering strong relationships with one another. We welcome the opportunity to help every child grow and develop the tools needed to be a thriving member of our community. More information may be obtained by contacting the ECP office for a personal tour of our facility.
Why Families Choose ECP
Small classes, big attention. Low ratios mean every child is known by name and noticed for who they are.
Play based learning. Children learn best by doing, so our days are full of centers, art experiences, outdoor play, and discovery.
Conscious Discipline. We teach self regulation, empathy, and problem solving so children learn how to be a good friend.
Ready for kindergarten and for life. Our PreK classes use Letterland, the same literacy curriculum used in Wake County kindergartens.
Rooted in love. As a ministry of Edenton Street UMC, we share one simple message: God loves you, and God wants us to love one another.
