The Child Development Program (CDP) of First Baptist Church is a Christian day care and preschool program that is founded on the belief that children are truly gifts from God. We are entrusted not only to care for them, but also to love them and teach them about His word. We achieve this by our actions, words and attitudes. We, as preschool teachers, are blessed and privileged to help shape the lives and futures of the little ones who pass through our doors.

   More Information

The Child Development Program is located in the Children's Center of First Baptist Church Tuscaloosa.

 

We recognize each child as a unique individual. We understand they will all learn differently and at different rates. Our role as preschool teachers is to be enthusiastic, reassuring, creative and positive. The experiences the children have while they are with us will affect their feelings toward school, other children, adults and the world around them. Our goal is to help insure that the feelings and attitudes they develop will be positive ones. You will find more information in our Child Development Program Parent Handbook.

 

   Admission Policy

The Child Development Program (CDP) is a nonprofit organization. Children are placed in classes according to their age as of September 1st (public school cut-off). Half-Day and Full-Day children must be walking, 3-year-olds must be potty-trained.

  CDP Curriculum
Our CDP curriculum was written in-house. It is a balance of age appropriate academic activities and Biblical learning for toddlers, twos, threes and fours. Children participate in a variety of learning centers and physical activities. The Threes and Fours also will have computer time in their classroom and Chapel time on Mondays.
