Care you can trust.
Love they can feel.

Foundations that last.

A Christ-Centered Ministry

Our Mission & Approach

Wee Care Learning Center is a ministry of Unity Baptist Church, dedicated to serving children and families with Christ-centered love. We nurture the whole child—physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually—while building strong foundations for lifelong learning.

At Wee Care, childhood is filled with love, safety, discovery, and joy. Our educators guide children through meaningful play, hands-on learning, and caring relationships that help each child grow in confidence, social skills, early academics, faith, kindness, and compassion.
