Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning.  But for children play is serious learning.  Play is really the work of childhood.

A Place to Grow is a full- time, fully licensed, Four (4) STAR , non-profit child care center that is an outreach ministry of
New Hope Presbyterian Church. At A Place to Grow we believe that children are a gift from God and that every child deserves the opportunity to grow and learn in a safe, nurturing, Christ-centered environment. We believe children learn best though hands-on experiences that stimulate spiritual, social, cognitive, physical, emotional and creative learning.  Children learn best when they are taught by educated, caring and experienced professionals. We respect the uniqueness and individuality of each child. We embrace the whole family, for it is through strong partnerships that the child will grow to their full potential.
