toddlerkinder
Grace Fellowship Preschool in Katy operates a Christ-centered, academically balanced program serving toddlers and preschoolers from 18 months through age 5 at its Cinco Ranch campus location. The center's curriculum integrates Bible instruction, music, and structured learning centers across math, language arts, science, and fine motor skills, complemented by weekly Music and Movement and chapel time. With a 4.6 Google rating, parent testimonials highlighting staff warmth and kindergarten readiness, a 191-seat enrollment that fills each season, and zero high-severity licensing deficiencies, it demonstrates strong community confidence and operational compliance. The center operates part-time only (2 to 4 days weekly, 9 AM–2:30 PM), which suits families seeking flexible weekly schedules but not full-time working parents; it also does not serve infants under 18 months.
