Learn more about our mission, our campus, and some of the benefits of choosing our programs.
Family Driven. Compassionate Care. Ministry Oriented.
Our mission is to join with families to provide quality care for children that is life-applicable, interactive, creative, and tailored to each age group in daily activities and curriculum in an environment that is both fun and safe. We are dedicated to providing excellent care that is truly relational and strive to teach the qualities of a “servant heart.”
Northwest Christian Childcare Center has been providing children and families with childcare programs they can trust since 1981. We strive to have each child receive the attention and care they deserve. Because we hire staff who share the NWCCC passion for teaching, learning, and growing, we have a long-term team who stay year after year, still excited about what they do.
We are committed to providing the best possible care for your family and believe caring for children is a special privilege. It is our desire to guide and nurture each child by providing social, emotional, physical, intellectual, and spiritual learning experiences. We want to encourage your child to reach their God-given potential. It is our prayer that your child will be surrounded by Christian love.
We are a Christian-based childcare center, and we make learning fun. With chapel time, Bible stories, and music we are teaching your children lessons that will stay with them throughout their entire lives. In addition to these programs, we use the Creative Curriculum in all Toddler and Preschool classrooms. With a curriculum specialist on site, we are able to ensure that we are going above and beyond standard curriculum guidelines while providing an atmosphere where each child feels welcome, safe, and excited about learning.
While we teach and care for your children, we believe that your family is a fundamental aspect of your child’s life. In this way, we make a point to create a family atmosphere, doing everything we can to meet each family’s needs on an individual basis whenever possible. With a ministry focus, we are always here for our children and their families.
Northwest Christian Childcare Center is a privately owned and operated non-profit childcare center. The childcare center is licensed by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. We are approved to operate legally as a childcare center, preschool, after school care, and summer day camp (school-age) program.

Pre-K Cooking Class
Our Kitchen Manager leads an introductory cooking course for our Pre-K students. These children are learning safe food practices as well as tasting various recipes. We hope to awaken the Little Foodie in your child and make some delicious dishes.
Some Sample Recipes
Ingredients:
- 1 medium or large tomato
- ¼ of a red onion
- ¼ of a green bell pepper
- 1 lime
- ¼ cup of cilantro
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Dice your tomato, red onion, and green bell pepper into small diced pieces. Place in medium mixing bowl. Finely chop the cilantro and add to salsa mixture. Add the juice of half of a lime. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix all ingredients together and enjoy! *Jalapeno can be substituted for green bell pepper for more spice.*
Ingredients:
- ¼ cup of Sunbutter
- ¼ cup of honey
- ¼ cup of craisins
- ¼ cup of mini-M&Ms

In a medium mixing bowl combine all ingredients. Form powerballs with small cookie scoop. (A spoon will work just fine just roll them in the palms of your gloved hands.) Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and enjoy.
