                           Our goal at Zion Day Care Center is to provide safe, loving, quality care for children of working parents in a positive environment where they can grow and learn. We strive to instill values which strengthen a childs good Judgment, self-esteem ,and respect for others. We take pride in providing and  environment filled with laughter and new experiences.           
         
            
              Our philosophy is one of encouraging the positive development of each individual child. We provide a foundation for socialization and learning with a structured program which has been carefully created to address the emotional and physical development of each child. Although we are not an academic child care center, our program has been designed to teach the proper skills that children need to develop, and to satisfy their various needs.
        
              The relationship between our children, our staff members, and our parents is a very important and valuable part of our program. We encourage active interest and participation by the parents. Your involvement and input helps us to maintain quality care for your children.
        
              Our staff members are experienced, qualified, very understanding and loving caregivers. They come to us highly recommended and they strive to enhance the lives of all the children. They have been certified in CPR, infant and child first aid, and fire safety. They must upgrade their skills with regular participation in workshops and seminars throughout the year. Many of our staff members have been with us for five years or longer. Our first priority is to maintain high-quality, safe and loving care for your children at all times.
        
              Although our doors are locked for your child's safety and security, we have an "open-door" policy. No parent will be denied the right to see their child at any time during the day. The Director and staff members are available to answer any questions or discuss any concerns you may have about your child.
        
              Zion Christian Child Care Center was founded in 1985 and is currently licensed to enroll 159 children. We accept children of all races, cultures and denominations.
