OUR STORY

Over 40 Years Serving the Northern Metro Community

Noah’s Ark is an early learning center located within The Crossing Church in Westminster, Colorado. Our goal is to give parents a safe, trustworthy childcare partner that combines the convenience of a larger center with the warmth of a home-based facility. When we say you’re part of the family, we mean it. Our center provides loving, year-round care for children ages 8 weeks to 5 years old, as well as engaging winter and summer break camps. Our dedicated staff are eager to help your child grow into the person he or she can be! We look forward to adding you to our family.

Our Philosophy

At Noah’s Ark Learning Center, we believe every child grows best through play-based learning and whole-child development. Our Westminster preschool curriculum nurtures cognitive, social-emotional, physical, and problem-solving skills through developmentally appropriate, curriculum-based play, building confidence, independence, and a lifelong love for learning.

Play-Based Learning

Children learn best through curriculum-based play. Our Westminster preschool curriculum turns everyday exploration into hands-on, developmentally appropriate learning.

Whole-Child Development

We empower cognitive, social, emotional, motor, and language growth in every classroom, every day.

Parent Partnership

Parents are a child’s most influential teacher. Our teachers maintain open communication with parents through daily updates, monthly newsletters, and parent boards, building trust between home and classroom.
