About Us
Welcome to the Children’s Learning Center at Mount Olive Baptist Church (CLC)
We are so glad you are here! The preschool years are a magical time of wide-eyed wonder and big discoveries, and walking alongside your family during this special season is our greatest joy.
Our mission is simple: to create a warm, joyful second home where your child feels deeply loved, truly valued, and wonderfully empowered just as they are.
Where Little Hearts and Minds Flourish
At the CLC, learning is an adventure. We believe children learn best when they are having fun, feeling safe, and following their natural curiosity. Our play-based, developmentally rich curriculum blends heart and mind, including:
-
Sensory play and creative arts that spark imagination and self-expression
-
Enchanting storytelling and early literacy to foster a lifelong love of reading
-
Hands-on early math and technology-integrated projects for curious minds
-
Music, movement, and fine motor activities to build strength and coordination
-
Small group collaboration that teaches kindness, sharing, and teamwork
-
Gentle Bible stories to nurture their growing spiritual hearts
Through this balanced, whole-child approach, your little one will grow physically, socially, emotionally, spiritually, and academically. Our ultimate goal isn’t just to get them ready for kindergarten—it’s to help them build a joyful, resilient foundation for a lifetime of learning.
Let’s Begin This Journey Together
Choosing a preschool is one of the first big decisions you make as a parent, and we consider it a true privilege to partner with families like yours. We would love to welcome you into our warm community and make the CLC the very first chapter of your child’s wonderful educational story.
We can’t wait to meet you and your little one!
Sincerely,
Mrs. April Mullins, Director, Children’s Learning Center at Mount Olive Baptist Church – Centreville
