Company Description
Established in 1961, PELC (Presbyterian Early Learning Center) has been offering children a nurturing, creative, and stimulating environment which emphasizes love, respect, and compassion for over a half century. For our 2024-2025 school year, we serve children from 5 months to 5 years. At PELC, we believe that every child is a unique gift, and their early years are a precious time for growth, development, and exploration. Our staff celebrates and encourages each child’s individuality, helping them grow into independent thinkers with a strong sense of self. Because we maintain a low child-to-teacher ratio, we are able to provide personalized attention in a safe, supportive setting. Our play-based approach ensures that learning is not only fun but also highly effective in promoting a child's overall development. Our large playgrounds provide generous space for your child to explore, play, and engage in physical activities.
