Our History
On
November 1, 2004, The Mustard Seed Early Learning Center opened
our doors to the local community providing parents with a
quality learning center close to home. As parents, Ms. Roxy and
Mr. Frank know first hand just how difficult it is to find a
quality learning environment for children.
Our
commitment to you is to exceed the minimum standards in all
areas in order for you to have peace of mind knowing your
children are safe and loved while they are learning and growing
in our care.

Roxy
believes that children learn through the experiences they
encounter in their environment as they examine, investigate, and
question the “things” around them. Therefore; The Mustard Seed classrooms are designed in a
manner in which children have the opportunity to develop
cognitive skills through the construction of knowledge with
hands-on materials and open-ended experiences and social skills
through the interaction with other children and adults. The curriculum is developed to meet the developmental
needs of each child in the classrooms through units that focus
on the interests of the children.
