Rooted in Scripture

Growing in faith.
Close to home.

For West Valley parents, choosing Christian preschool means finding care that fits family life and a school that is clear about its beliefs. Great Beginnings in Goodyear brings early education and teaching about Jesus into the same familiar day.

We believe the Bible is God’s Word and Jesus is God’s Son and our Savior. Children begin to hear the story of God’s love in simple terms: God created us, people have turned away from God and need a Savior, and Jesus died on the cross and rose again. We can trust and follow Him.

You’ll find our campus at 13380 W Van Buren St, near Dysart Road. We welcome Goodyear families, including those in Palm Valley, and families from nearby Litchfield Park.

Faith in ordinary moments

Little prayers.
Growing faith.

Learning about God belongs throughout the day. Our teachers point children to Jesus through their words, patient guidance, and care for each child.

Prayer and worship are brief and child-friendly. Children can thank God for a meal, talk to Him when they miss home, and sing songs with motions that help them remember biblical truths.

Our Christian faith & values
  1. Hear the Bible’s story

    Picture Bibles, story cards, props, and simple activities help children understand Scripture. A creation story can lead to noticing the plants and animals God made.

  2. Remember and respond

    Short memory verses, repeated truths, songs, and prayers give children familiar words for God’s love and care.

  3. Practice loving others

    Sharing a toy, welcoming a new friend, and offering help become chances to practice the love Jesus teaches.

  4. Find forgiveness and try again

    Teachers explain wrong choices in simple language, guide children in saying “I am sorry” and offering forgiveness, and point them to Jesus as the One who forgives and helps us grow.

Faith and learning at each stage

Room to wonder.
Room to grow.

Our Goodyear classrooms connect Christian teaching with hands-on learning, play, and relationships. Age-appropriate activities support spiritual, social, emotional, and academic growth.

Teachers and parents, together

Known. Encouraged.
Supported together.

We see parents as their children’s primary spiritual leaders. Our role is to support your family with Christian care, clear communication, and opportunities to talk about learning and faith.

Your family does not have to be Christian or attend a particular church to enroll. We welcome questions from families exploring faith. Choosing Great Beginnings means being comfortable with Bible-based teaching, prayer in Jesus’ name, and a clearly Christian classroom environment.

Bring your questions

Ask about classroom themes, Bible stories, memory verses, friendships, and how your child is adjusting. Share the routines and encouragement that help your child at home.

Our teachers see their work as ministry. Warm words, patience, prayer, and respectful guidance help children experience the love of Jesus in everyday relationships.

Read our beliefs before enrolling and talk with us about what they mean for your child’s day.

Care is part of our ministry

Space to play.
Care you can discuss.

Controlled building access, check-in and check-out procedures, and supervision in classrooms and outdoor areas support children’s care. Regular cleaning and organized, age-appropriate materials help keep learning spaces ready for the day.

Indoor centers make room for books, building, pretend play, puzzles, and art. Outdoor play gives children opportunities to move, explore, and build friendships. Ask our Goodyear team about classroom routines and safety practices during your visit.
