Bethlehem Lutheran Child Dev Center believes that each child has an individual personality, separate learning style, and family background.
Spontaneous play and child initiated activities are an important part of learning and cognitive development.
Our goal is to help children develop the skills they will need to succeed in school and throughout life.
Our pledge is for a continuous positive contact and communication with each other to insure consistency, security and emotional support to help children grow.
