Creating a Brighter Future

EXPLORE FPCDC

The First Presbyterian Child Development Center was established in 1980 for children K thru 5th Grade whose parents work and need supervision for their children beyond the regular school day. This program acts as a transition between the regular school day and home. It also allows school-age children to continue in our program and keeps siblings together as much as possible. This program is extended through the summer months and is offered from 6:45am to 5:45pm, Monday through Friday. The atmosphere is relaxed, choices of activities are available and ground rules are followed.

Enrollment

Information about the Child Development Center and the School-age Program is available by contacting the Director, Karen Barnes, or Assistant Director Mary Cole, at (919) 775-2822.
Because of the large demand for child care, waiting lists are long and parents are encouraged to submit their child’s name as soon as possible. Members of the First Presbyterian Church will be given top priority on the waiting list.

The purpose of First Presbyterian Child Development Center is to provide a primary service for working parents by offering a comprehensive Child Development program within a Christian context for infants through five year old's. This means parents, church members and the center work in close harmony with a single goal, giving all children an opportunity to reach their full potential in all areas of development.
