Red Bridge Early Childhood Center is a part-time preschool program for children ages 2-5 years old. We opened our doors in 1978 as a ministry of Red Bridge United Methodist Church. Over the last 40 years, our partnership with Red Bridge UMC has grown. Because of this relationship, we are able to provide students with a high quality preschool experience where children can learn in a safe and loving environment. Our philosophy is to promote each child’s God given potential for spiritual, intellectual, emotional, social and physical growth.

Fostering independence in children brings numerous benefits that positively impacts their overall development.
We strive to communicate openly and clearly to parents about their children. It could be something like your child being chosen to be the line leader or performing a task independently, we love to share these wins with the parents to help build that trust.
