Christian Life Childcare is an integral part of Christian Life Center of the Tri-Cities. For over 20 years, we have provided the finest child care available.

Our Vision: Be the best child care facility in the Kingsport area.

Our Mission: We will provide a loving, safe, happy, interesting, and healthy environment for all ages during the time their parents have entrusted them to us. Our primary emphasis will be to keep children happy and engaged in activities that interest them, and to maintain a caring, personable staff.

Statement of Principles:

  • Invite parents to provide input in decisions, activities, goal setting, and program planning on both an individual and holistic level. We will make extended efforts to establish and maintain strong, trusting relationships with the parents and seek them out as primary resources for ideas, assistance, and support.
  • Be responsible care givers by obeying the laws and regulations, budgeting effectively, handling children and the decisions about them with a high moral and ethical standard, protecting and loving every child equally.
  • Value employees by realizing that they are the key to maintaining our high standards and a stable, inviting environment.
  • Keep perspective in all of our decisions. We were created as a not-for-profit ministry of Christian Life Center to reach and serve the community and to also be a constant source of funding to the church. This balance must always be maintained.
  • Our Services

    For your child of six weeks to four years, we offer comprehensive child care between the hours of 7:00 a.m – 6:00 p.m and the nursery hours being 7:00 a.m – 5:00 p.m Monday-Friday.

  • Our child development programs help children grow in their social skills, creativity, and academics. We also help prepare them to grow in their different stages of childhood. For some, that’s going to school for the first time, and other’s it may be encouragement for potty training. Every stage in a child’s life is extremely important. As parent’s, we fully understand what it means to nurture a child with patience, love, and kindness.
