St. Mark's Child Development Center provides a loving and nurturing environment for children to grow and develop.
St. Mark’s began serving families with young children in 1992, providing day care in the Sunday School classrooms of the Church.
The program soon outgrew the church, so the congregation built a new building, our existing site in 1999.
We use a top quality curriculum, which is based on a developmental play approach.
Our program focuses on the total development of the child: physical, intellectual, social, emotional and spiritual.
It is a stimulating learning environment that prepares children for school and the bigger world.
Our trained and experienced teachers are nurturing, and they enjoy getting to know each child’s personality and meeting his or her individual needs.
Parents can feel confident that their children are safely and lovingly cared for during their stay at St. Mark’s.
A not-for-profit corporation, we are committed to your child's safety and are licensed by the Department of Children and Family Services, an agency of the State of Illinois.
Our facilities are available to members and non-members alike. As you are seeking to find a day care with preschool for your child, I hope you will consider St. Mark's.
