Mt Pleasant Child Development Center has cared for Evansville's North Side families since 1999. We're a faith-based center, and our heart is simple: to love and care for every child as a whole person, and to give parents a place they can trust.
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.— Proverbs 22:6
We believe a child grows in four integrated ways, and we nurture all of them every single day. That fourth area is what makes us different. We care for your child's heart and faith alongside everything else.
Active play, fine and gross motor skills, healthy meals, and rest. We encourage children to stretch, discover their limits, and build vibrant, active bodies.
Curiosity, early literacy and numbers, problem-solving, and a love of learning. Classrooms are organized dynamically to inspire child-led discovery.
Friendships, sharing, naming feelings, kindness, and confidence. We guide children to communicate their feelings and practice respectful cooperation.
Faith woven gently into our days — gratitude, caring for others, and Christian values. We explore standard family graces, simple thankfulness, and basic kindness.
For more than 25 years, we've been part of this community. Children who started with us as infants have grown up and moved on to school — and some have come back as families of their own.
We are deeply grateful for the trust North Side parents have placed in us, year after year. Handing your child to another is an act of trust, and we meet that trust daily with pristine clean spaces and loving educators.

We hold a Paths to QUALITY Level 3 rating — a state-recognized mark of the quality of our care and our learning environment. Reflecting structural high standards.
We're licensed by the State of Indiana and meet its standards for safety, supervision, and early learning care.
Our lead teachers hold the Child Development Associate (CDA) credential — nationally recognized training in early childhood care and education.

Our center is part of the Mt. Pleasant Christian Church family on Evansville's North Side. Our Christian values shape the warm, caring environment your child experiences every day — and families of all backgrounds are welcome here.
We practice everyday values of grace, sincere appreciation of family, and gentle patience. Your child is guided as an individual.
