Severn Christian Church

Early Learning Center

At our Severn Early Learning Center (ELC) we offer the SCC promise. We promise to educate your child, at a reasonable and affordable rate, in a safe environment, giving you confidence, with certified staff. Because we offer unique and specialized care, we have a limited number of children we can accept. We are currently accepting new children no younger than 2 1/2 years (or 30 months) for the upcoming school year. 

As Christ revealed his care and protection for the "little children," so we too take the care and education of our kids seriously and professionally. We believe our transparency, affordability, education, and facilities offer parents and children the best of both worlds in these important years of development. Check out our rates, times, and information below. Also, if you want more information or a tour, fill out our "Contact" form at the bottom of the page or email us here. 

Safety

Picture
We offer safety as a top priority. Our facilities, trained staff, and protocols set up our ELC to be a safe environment for your family. We keep our doors locked, security cameras running, and background check all staff who will be working with our children. Our ELC's safety is a top priority for our mission in serving your family. 
Picture
Our seclusion and confinement from the busyness of Maryland help make us a desirable choice for families. Bringing your child to our ELC is like taking them on an adventure into a peaceful and protected farmland. Our location is easily accessible and central to Ft. Meade, Schools, DC & Baltimore, and Rt. 97. However, our facilities location is set off on a farm with lots of land and open space. You can have confidence in your child's education and safety. 
Picture
We take pride in our MD certification, licensure, and training. Our staff are considered teachers, not baby sitters, because we lovingly equip your children to learn as well as live. Both our facilities and staff offer safety and security so that your child can be educated in a worry free environment. This means that your precious child isn't a "number" to fill a quota but a "person" to be loved and educated. 
 About Us:
We exist to be an outreach ministry of the church by providing a licensed, high quality and valuable service to the community. We believe that Children are a gift of the Lord (Psalm 127:3) and we exist to value these treasured gifts of God, and to train and teach them to love and serve God.
 
Licensure:
SCELC is licensed through the office of child care (within the Maryland State Department of Education). This license regulates class sizes, staff qualifications, and what type of program components must be offered.  In addition, state mandated forms must be completed prior to the child starting the program.
 
General Information:
During circle time the children learn Bible stories, ABC’s, numbers, colors, shapes, and all about the weather.  They also learn about other things via a weekly theme (i.e. vacations, sports, community helpers, etc…).  Our effective teaching is accomplished through a combination of excellent published curriculum and teacher developed lessons tailored to your child's needs. We provide a snack during the AM & PM sessions.  If the child is staying for lunchtime (11:30 AM – 12:15 PM) a lunch must be provided by the parent. We have a large outdoor playground and a gymnasium for use during inclement weather.

Operating Hours:
8:30AM - 3:00 PM Monday – Friday
