CrossRoads Child Development Center

A ministry of Davidsonville United Methodist Church, CrossRoads Child Development Center offers a developmental child care program which works with each child at his/her own level to encourage a healthy appreciation of self and to guide the child to group socialization. Furthermore, each child is a person of value who should have every opportunity to develop physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. The members of our teaching team are both professional and supportive of Christian values. They strive to create a loving, enriched atmosphere for children and to personify religious principles in their relationships with children. Our teachers provide a welcoming environment where children learn and grow through hands-on exploration. Learning is accomplished through a combination of teacher-directed and child-initiated activities. The whole child is nurtured through the use of individually appropriate activities, materials and equipment. It is important that time is taken to observe and to get to know each child in order to respond to individual needs. This is accomplished by providing appropriately challenging activities, allowing the children to feel good about themselves and to get along well with others.
