Our History

We are a nonprofit childcare center and preschool affiliated with Grace United Methodist Church, created to provide a unique service to our community-that of providing nurturing care and early childhood education in a Christian setting.

In 1992, Grace Christian Child Care was created in response to the needs of working families in the Hummelstown/Hershey community who were seeking high quality, reliable child care in a family-centered, loving Christian environment. In 2009 -- 17 years later -- Grace Christian Preschool was established to provide another facet of early education services at Grace, offering half-day classes for children needing socialization but not full-time care.
