Children's Day Out
“Friends and neighbors of First Baptist Church,
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the closing of our Children’s Day Out program for the upcoming Fall semester. We are grateful for the good work the CDO staff has done over the years, and we wish each of them well in their future endeavors. While we are saddened that we will not be able to provide this essential childcare for the families of our community this Fall, we are hopeful about the ways in which we might meet the needs of our community from this point forward.
With hope and love”
Our Mission
The Children’s Day Out (CDO) program at First Baptist Church Jefferson City is committed to providing a safe and loving Christian environment in which young children can learn and grow!
Our Philosophy
At Children’s Day Out, we watch the children in our care and respond to their needs. We fill their days with laughter, smiles, and fun. We treat the children in our care with dignity and respect. We work diligently to incorporate Christian values in all aspects of the day. Above all, we love the children in our care with the unconditional love that Christ so willingly offers us allowing their innocence and purity to guide us throughout the day.
Our Classes
We accept children ranging in age from six weeks old to five years old.
Classes are available for Infants, Toddlers, Younger Preschoolers, Older Preschoolers and Pre-Kindergartners. Our classrooms are staffed with two teachers who work together to create a wide variety of activities including Biblical Teachings, Art, Music, Games, Stories, Outdoor Play and a multitude of special activities. Our experienced staff strives to create a positive atmosphere filled with love and encouragement in which the children have an opportunity to grow spiritually, emotionally, socially, physically, and intellectually.
