Starts the First Tuesday of September and Ends the Last Thursday of May
Mother’s Day Out (MDO) of First Baptist Church of Charlotte aims to provide parents child-free time by providing a safe, caring and Christ-like environment for the child. We want to allow the child to grow and develop as Jesus did “in wisdom and stature, and favor with God and men” Luke 2:52.
Our MDO is more than a baby-sitting service. It is a fun interactive three-hour program for children ages one (must be walking) to five. Each month focuses on a different theme. During the month the activities, crafts, music and playtime will focus around these themes.
Our program will promote the following: Sharing, Manners, Cooperative play, Pre-academic skills (color, letter and number recognition, counting, and sorting), Fine Motor skills (writing, coloring, cutting) and Gross Motor skills (running, throwing, jumping).
Our program also serves as a means of outreach by being open to the community. First Baptist Church of Charlotte welcomes you and your family to worship with us if you are not currently attending another church.
MDO will provide a loving and caring learning environment that will nurture your child’s physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development. We will introduce them to the world of stories, music, exploration, and creativity. Sample schedule follows:
