Bethlehem Children’s Center provides early childhood care and education in a faith‑based setting for children ages four months through pre‑kindergarten. The center operates as a nonprofit ministry outreach of Bethlehem Lutheran Church and is overseen by the Bethlehem Lutheran School Board; tuition provides program funding.
The program uses a play‑oriented, developmentally appropriate approach informed by child development principles (including references to Piaget and Erikson and alignment with National Association for the Education of Young Children guidance). Teachers act as guides and facilitators, offering hands‑on activities designed to foster positive self‑concept, social skills, physical development, language and literacy, critical thinking, and respect for cultural diversity.
The center maintains health and safety policies covering illness exclusion criteria, medication storage and special arrangements for administration, sunscreen and allergy guidance, hand washing, first aid, and emergency procedures (including evacuation sites and provisions for short‑term care). Staff are mandated reporters of suspected child abuse. The program also documents release and pick‑up procedures, car‑seat requirements for transported children, a positive discipline approach that prohibits corporal punishment, and procedures for addressing repeated behavioral issues.
