About Us
Your Child Is in Great Hands
Our Philosophy
Church in the Gardens Preschool, established in 1967, is a Christian preschool focused on providing a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for children in the community. With programs for Pre K2, Pre K3, and VPK, the preschool emphasizes the importance of early childhood education as a foundation for future learning. Our mission is to help children find joy in learning and come to know God, fostering social, emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual development through developmentally appropriate activities. We value the partnership between parents and teachers, recognizing each child as a unique individual to be respected and valued.
Health & Safety
At Church in the Gardens Preschool, the well-being of every child is our top priority. Our classrooms and play areas are designed to provide a clean, secure, and welcoming environment where children can learn and grow safely. Staff are trained in first aid, CPR, and emergency preparedness, and we follow strict sanitation and safety procedures throughout each day. From careful supervision to consistent cleanliness, we are committed to maintaining a healthy, nurturing space that gives parents peace of mind.
Our History
Church in the Gardens Preschool first opened its doors in 1967 and has been serving families in Palm Beach Gardens for more than 50 years. Generations of children have started their educational journey here, in an environment that combines faith, care, and excellence.
​
In August 2016, we entered a new chapter with the opening of our current preschool building. Built on the same grounds where the original school and playground once stood, the new facility reflects both our deep roots and our vision for the future. While our classrooms and play spaces are now modern and bright, our commitment remains the same: to provide a place where children can grow, learn, and experience God’s love.
