child care center

Advantages:

  • Convenient and Accessible: The Center is located on Interstate 10 about a half-mile east of Sheldon Road. It is next to DeZavalla Elementary School.
  • An Emphasis on Learning: Child's play is serious work! Our staff uses the Pinnacle curriculum, which incorporates learning about our world and community with learning about the Christian faith. Even more important, we incorporate learning into all activities, constantly encouraging children to pursue their own curiosity.
  • Top-notch Facility: The new facility, designed for Child Care use, was opened in October 1999. We believe it to be one of the best-planned Child Care facilities in the area.
  • New but Experienced: The Child Care Center is an integral part of the ministry of Old River Terrace United Methodist Church, which has been part of the Channelview community since 1938. Director Jo Ann Hough brings with her 25 years of experience as an owner-operator of a child care center, as well as extensive experience in personnel and office management.
  • Church-based Makes a Difference: Christian faith development is built in to every aspect of what we do. This makes a difference in the respect shown to both children and staff - decisions are made by members of the community who are committed to making it a better place.
  • Enrolling Now: We are now enrolling for all ages, as long as space is available.

General Policies:

  • Hours of Operation: The Center is open from 6:00 a.m to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, except New Year's Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day. There is no rate reduction for weeks including a holiday.
  • Family Discount: Families with 2 or more children in the center will receive a 10 percent discount. The discount applies to regular childcare fees.
  • Special Requirements for Infants and Toddlers: Parents must provide disposable diapers or pull-ups for infants and toddlers who are not yet toilet trained. We provide food for infants until they are able to eat regular food.
  • Late Pick Up Charges: If you pick up your child after 6:30 p.m., there will be a $5.00 late charge for each 15 minute interval or part thereof. It is due at the time you pick your child up.
  • Late Payment Policy: Payment is due before 6:30 p.m. Tuesday. Payments not made at 6:30 p.m. are subject to a $5.00 late fee added to your week's tuition. If payment is not paid by Friday of the current week, that week plus the coming week must be paid in full before the child can attend.
  • Optional Services: Services in addition to basic childcare may be offered at various times for an additional fee.
