Child Enrichment Center
We opened our doors in 1970 as a ministry of Mount Carmel Baptist church. We have been providing high quality childcare in our community across the years. Our program is inspected annually by the North Carolina Division of Child Development. We offer enhanced standards within our program which include smaller staff-to-child ratios and smaller classroom sizes.
Our purpose at Mount Carmel Child Enrichment Center is to provide a safe, Christian environment where learning and nurture takes place when the parent must be away from the child. One of our goals is to prepare the pre-school age child socially and intellectually for kindergarten. This is accomplished through small and large group activities, art, music, math, science, cognitive games/activities, creative dramatics, and free play within our program.
