A daycare ministry being built to help children feel safe, known, loved, and ready to grow.
Connect Kids is preparing to open in December 2026 at Connect Church in Lubbock for 2s, 3s, and 4-year-olds. We are building a Christ-centered early learning environment where children are cared for with patience, families are communicated with clearly, and every classroom is shaped by safety, purpose, and joy.
Why Connect Kids exists
Connect Kids exists to serve Lubbock families with trustworthy early care rooted in the love of Jesus. We know choosing daycare is one of the biggest trust decisions a parent makes, so our goal is to create a place where children are protected, nurtured, encouraged, and gently prepared for what comes next.
Our approach to children
Safety before everything
Daily routines, supervision, background checks and training as required by licensing, and careful check-in/check-out planning.
Learning through purposeful play
Frog Street educational curriculum, centers, language, discovery, and school-readiness experiences designed for young children.
Faith that feels joyful and age-appropriate
Wonder Ink, Bible stories, prayer, worship, wonder, and belonging in a tone that is warm and child-friendly.
Partnership with parents
Procare updates, practical communication, and a leadership team that welcomes questions as opening details are finalized.
