Our Mission

The mission of St. John's NEST Children's Day Out is to help children develop their Catholic faith. We provide a safe, loving environment emphasizing spiritual and religious values and hands-on experiences encouraging social and emotional growth through play.

Our goal is to help each child develop an awareness of concepts through sensory experiences. We facilitate this development through age-appropriate activities:

• Working with a variety of tools and materials
• Music and movement (gross motor skills)
• Story time
• Practicing life skills
• Practicing good health habits
• Providing time and room to explore, experiment, discover, play, and be a child

 These activities are planned around themes such as feelings, family, nutrition, seasons, etc.
