About Second Baptist Child Development Center
Second Baptist Child Development Center
Established in 1987, Second Baptist Child Development Center is a long-standing Corpus Christi ministry offering a nurturing, play-based environment. The program utilizes the WEE Learn curriculum to support cognitive, physical, and spiritual development through hands-on activities. Parents value the center's stable environment, which emphasizes Christian values and positive social development for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. The facility is designed with safety and accessibility in mind, featuring secure code-access doors, closed-circuit cameras, and a full kitchen preparing family-style meals. Children enjoy extensive outdoor play on a large playground divided into age-appropriate zones, including a specialized infant/toddler area and a bike path. In addition to preschool care, the center provides a robust Latchkey program for school-aged children, including van transportation from several local elementary schools.
What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
I have been meaning to write this for a while! I can’t say enough good things about 2nd Baptist CDC! I have 3 boys…ages 3, almost 2, and 8 months. We left a TERRIBLE daycare in town after exhausting every attempt at a good relationship with them. We’ve been at 2nd Baptist now for well over a year and the peace I have of people I trust taking care of my kids is PRICELESS. The school follows a Montessori program + they learn about Jesus, the Bible, and that they are loved by Him. My boys have learned & grown so much there, mentally & spiritually. Ms. Sharon, Deborah, & Adela in the office always accommodate us (like getting my baby adjusted to daycare & letting me know how he was doing during the day, having a late drop off one day, etc.). Ms. Melissa (both of them!), Mercedes, Alexis, Gloria, Letty, Paige, Cassie… (I’m sure I’m missing some) are incredible!!!! I haven’t seen too much turn over either which I think is fairly common at daycares. I feel like my kids are genuinely loved and cared for by good mamas. I always keep my kids home if I can, but knowing they’re having fun & learning when I need to go to work, is a blessing. Mine will stay here until they start grade school. If you can get in here, do it. You’ll love it.
Great place! Love the staff and teachers!
Best early years program in Corpus Christi with the best staff.
