Our Program
Faith-Filled Care for Every Stage of Childhood
At Glory Bound Day Care Ministries, we offer a range of nurturing, Christ-centered services designed to support the unique needs of children from infancy through preschool. Each program is thoughtfully created to encourage spiritual growth, early learning, and joyful exploration in a safe and loving environment.
Infant Care
Our Infant Care program provides a nurturing, safe, and soothing environment where babies feel loved, secure, and cherished. With a focus on building strong emotional bonds, we offer gentle care tailored to each infant’s needs, encouraging early social interaction, motor skills development, and sensory exploration. Our caregivers provide individualized attention, ensuring that each baby is embraced with warmth, prayer, and Christ-centered love as they begin their early journey of growth and discovery.
Preschool
Our Preschool program is designed to provide a well-rounded educational experience for young children. Through age-appropriate activities and structured learning, children develop critical cognitive, language, and social skills. Each day, preschoolers are engaged in hands-on lessons that promote curiosity, creativity, and problem-solving, all within a faith-based context. With a strong emphasis on early literacy, numeracy, and Bible teachings, we prepare children for the next step in their educational journey, while nurturing their hearts and spirits in the love of Christ.
Enrichment Activities
Our Enrichment Activities offer a wonderful blend of fun and learning, providing children with opportunities to explore their creativity, develop motor skills, and build self-confidence. From music and arts to outdoor play, each activity is designed to engage children’s imaginations and foster their spiritual and intellectual growth. Children are introduced to Bible stories through interactive activities, songs, and crafts, deepening their connection with God’s Word while building lifelong skills that enhance their overall development.
About Us
Glory Bound Day Care Ministries
We are a faith-based early childhood care and education center located in Elkhart, Indiana. Our mission is to provide a Christ-centered, loving, and enriching environment that nurtures every child’s spiritual, emotional, and intellectual development.
Rooted in the teachings of Christ, our philosophy emphasizes compassion, purpose, and joy in every aspect of a child’s learning journey. We believe that every child is a unique gift from God, full of potential, curiosity, and creativity. Our goal is to partner with families to help each child grow into their God-given identity with confidence and care.
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.”
Our Values – Rooted in Faith, Guided by Love
At Glory Bound Day Care Ministries, our values are the foundation of everything we do. They shape how we care for children, how we interact with families, and how we serve our community. These guiding principles reflect our unwavering commitment to providing a Christ-centered environment where every child feels safe, loved, and inspired to grow.
We value Christ at the center of all things. Faith is not just a part of our curriculum—it is the heart of our mission. We teach children about God’s love and grace through prayer, scripture, and daily acts of kindness, helping them build a relationship with Christ that lasts a lifetime.
We value love and compassion in every interaction. Our caregivers and educators lead with warmth, patience, and understanding, creating a nurturing atmosphere where children feel seen, heard, and valued.
We value the whole child. We are dedicated to supporting spiritual, emotional, social, physical, and intellectual development. Every child is unique and created in God’s image, and we strive to meet them where they are—encouraging curiosity, creativity, and confidence.
We value excellence with integrity. From our curriculum and classroom practices to our communication with families, we pursue the highest standards while remaining humble, honest, and trustworthy.
We value community and family partnership. We believe that parents are a child’s first and most important teachers, and we work hand-in-hand with families to support each child’s journey. Together, we create a consistent and loving circle of care.
These values are more than words—they are lived out daily in the way we teach, lead, and serve. At Glory Bound, children don’t just learn—they are loved, guided, and prepared to shine.
