About Explorer Preschool

Explorer Preschool, formerly known as Discovery Place Preschool, is a half-day preschool serving children ages 2-5 years old. We are housed inside the Christ United Methodist Church in Millcreek. We first opened our doors in 1997 as Parent’s Day Out, before we transitioned into a half-day preschool program in 2015.

We currently offer half-day preschool Tuesday through Thursday from 8:45 am to 12:00 pm.  The preschool year begins in September and runs through May.

Exciting news: The preschool will diversify its program from 3 days a week to 2, 3, or 5 days a week, starting in the fall of 2023. It will remain a morning program running from 8:45 am to 12:00 pm.

Explorer Preschool program is a ministry of Christ United Methodist Church. We strive to provide a safe, nurturing, high-quality, developmentally appropriate program for children. Our goal is to provide for each child’s emotional, social, physical, cognitive, and spiritual needs in a safe and loving environment.  We endeavor to instill in each child their own capacity to show love, respect, and compassion towards others. As a community, our greatest hope is that our students grow on a foundation of God’s love and that they develop a love of learning with an insatiable curiosity, and build life-long friendships that begin in our program.
