Teacher: Mrs. Delaney

I have taught at First Christian Church as the head teacher, for 1 year and have been the teacher's aide for 7 years.

I have taken classes and received my CDA (Child Development Certification) in 2002.

I am married and have 4 children, 3 sons and 1 daughter.

"My goal, as a pre-school teacher, is to prepare the children for the next stages of their education. I work on developing strong social skills and give the unique opportunities to learn in a loving Christian atmosphere. We use hands on activities that help them learn and use their imaginations. We want them to have a good positive start to their learning experience!"

Programs run from September through May.

The 4/5 year old class: We are very excited to be able to offer this 4 day session. This class is for older 4 year olds who have had previous preschool experience and will definitely be entering Kindergarten the following fall, and for 5-year-old children,  as well. This class continues to focus on the child as a whole, gaining strength and confidence in all developmental areas. This class encourages children to refine motor, cognitive, and intellectual skills, through experiment and experience, preparing children for the further educational challenges of Kindergarten.

Mrs. Delaney's Class - Parent Quote: "We were a little apprehensive leaving them for them for the first time, but when we went there we felt very safe. That comfort level was important to us. It's hard when your're leaving them, but even when the kids are crying, you know the teachers are patient and nurturing." - Laura Pavlich, Stow
