Grace Episcopal Church established a daycare program in November of 1972 to offer early childhood education to the families in the community. The programs at Grace Early Learning Center operates five days a week from 7:00 am-6:00 pm, 12 months a year. Children are divided into groups according to their age and development. Breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack are served daily to the children.

Beginning in September of 1982, as a separate program from the already popular child care program, Grace Church began a pre-k program. This program operates Monday-Friday during September-June. This program provides a strong academic program that prepares children who will be entering the public schools the following school year. Our program has a state-approved curriculum that follows the same common core standards Maryland Public Schools follow.
