Hear What Parents Have to Say
12 Age Appropriate Class Rooms
Each of our classrooms are purposefully designed to support the developmental needs of a specific age group. With age-appropriate toys, hands-on activities, and DHR-compliant setups, we create a safe and engaging environment that helps children reach important milestones.
As we expand our facility we will be adding 6 new classrooms to serve additional families!
4 Age Appropriate Outdoor Play Areas
Our four outdoor play areas are thoughtfully designed for specific age groups, each equipped with developmentally appropriate structures and a safe pour-in-place rubber surface. Ardent believes outdoor play supports physical development and gives children a safe, fun way to enjoy the fresh air.
Splash Pad
Our splash pad is a favorite summer feature at Ardent Preschool & Daycare! This unique outdoor space gives children a fun and safe way to cool off, play, and make memories with friends. Designed with age-appropriate water features and safety in mind, it’s the perfect way to add extra excitement to warm-weather days.
Infant Courtyard Coming Soon!
Our new infant courtyard will be conveniently located just outside the infant classrooms, this shaded outdoor space will be thoughtfully designed for our youngest babies. It will provide a safe, peaceful environment where infants can enjoy fresh air and sunshine in a space created just for them!
Indoor Play Room Coming Soon!
This special space will be all about keeping kids active and having fun—no matter the weather! Whether it’s too hot or raining outside, our indoor play area will provide a place where imagination can flourish.
State of the Art Facilities
We’re expanding our campus to offer families even more features that make learning fun, engaging, and developmentally enriching for every child in our care.
At Ardent, your child’s safety is our top priority—but we also believe a secure space should feel warm and welcoming. That’s why our facilities are thoughtfully designed to create a nurturing environment where children can thrive, while giving families peace of mind.
Program Benefits
Ardent Preschool & Daycare provides children with an early education that builds character and challenges them to grow. We use the Abeka Curriculum to give children the vital building blocks they need to propel them into a successful academic career.
Structured Learning
We believe that children thrive when provided with a structured environment. Having a predictable routine helps them understand what to expect throughout the day, allowing them to focus better on their activities.
Faith Based Education
Ardent was founded on Christian principles. Our goal is to help children gain an understanding of God’s love and to nurture character traits that will guide them throughout their lives. We pray over every meal, and part of our curriculum is scripture memorization.
Advanced Academics
Children who complete the preschool program at Ardent tend to be set apart from their peers. With advanced math and literacy skills our graduates are more than ready for what they will face in kindergarten.
We are Expanding!
We’re expanding our campus with exciting new features to enrich every child’s learning experience. The updates include additional classrooms, an all-weather indoor play space, and enhanced outdoor areas for each age group—including a peaceful infant courtyard. These additions reflect our continued commitment to a warm, secure, and engaging environment where children thrive from infancy through kindergarten.
Community
As daycare providers, we are spending a lot of time with the children in our care, and we want to build a strong bond with the families that trust us with the care of their children. At Ardent, we hope to provide a sense of community between our staff and families. We will always have a warm cup of coffee ready for you at drop off, accompanied by a warm smile when you walk in the door. We also offer a few events throughout the year to give families time to mingle with staff, and other families, to provide a sense of belonging and care.
