Welcome! The Weekday Children's Ministry (WCM) provides quality childcare in a Christian environment. We value inclusion and diversity and strive to welcome families from greater Montgomery who represent a broad range of education and economic backgrounds. As a ministry of the Aldersgate United Methodist Church, where the Center is located, the WCM receives guidance and spiritual support from the church and, in turn, participates in the mission and ministry of Aldersgate as it serves its membership as well as the wider community.
Parents are recognized and valued as active members of the Center's team and are partners in guiding the care and education of their children.
The WCM is proud of the quality of our teaching staff, many of whom have a long history with our Center. The preschool provides a curriculum-based approach for the developmentally appropriate education of our children. Children are further enriched through opportunities for chapel, music, Spanish instruction, creative arts and field trips.
Our Mission is to provide the best quality of education and care for our children and to serve as a local model for early childhood education. In particular, we are committed to teaching Christian values and to placing special emphasis on providing quality educational services and resources in a spiritual environment.
Program Standards: The Christian principles of the United Methodist Church guide the ethical code by which the WCM is founded and sustained. Aldersgate United Methodist Church is fully dedicated to act on behalf of the needs, rights, and well-being of the children in its WCM. There is no substitute for outstanding achievement, and we are totally dedicated to that end.
To that aim, we will work tirelessly to ensure a high standard of excellence in early childhood education and to reflect current standards of best practice established by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
Licensure: The WCM is an Alabama Department of Human Resources licensed facility and adheres to the regulations and procedures set forth in the Minimum Standards for DayCare and Nighttime Center, 2006. The Center is reviewed annually by the Department of Human Resources and has historically received accommodation for compliance to standards. The Center also receives annual inspections from the Health Department and the Fire Marshal. The WCM remains in compliance with all standards.
