Announcements
Extended CCPS Hours
To help meet the needs of some of these families, we are enthusiastically announcing the expansion of our child centered ministry.
To the people of the Hopewell Valley and our neighbors in surrounding areas,
We hope that this message finds you in both good health and good spirits as we all navigate through these uncertain times. Each day our members and friends bring us news of the needs that people face within our local communities.
Many families are facing an increased need for care for their preschool age children while they work - and this need is coming at a time when many childcare facilities are scaling back operations due to budgetary concerns, or COVID-related restrictions on class enrollment size.
To help meet the needs of some of these families, we are enthusiastically announcing the expansion of our child centered ministry:
Creative Connections Play School will be expanding its operating hours to accommodate families that require full day care for their pre-school age children.
The small, boutique setting includes a core 9am-5pm specialized preschool program plus 60 minutes of extended care both before and after school.
If anyone in your community is currently facing this need for child care, additional information about Creative Connections Play School can be provided by contacting:
