St. Michael’s Early Learning Center focuses on meeting the needs of young families by providing a strong community and consistent, high-quality education that prepares children for kindergarten. Our faith-based curriculum, ABCJesusLovesMe, supports cognitive, emotional, and spiritual growth with a focus on learning through play. This curriculum ensures children are academically ready for elementary school while building a solid spiritual foundation.
Our research-based approach empowers teachers to create an engaging and nurturing environment where children thrive. Parents can also access resources like videos and blogs through the ABCJesusLovesMe website, extending the learning experience to the home.
In addition to our core curriculum, we also offer a variety of extracurricular activities like ballet, karate, and soccer. Our 3k and 4k students participate in chapel, music education, and phonics-based reading skills each week.
We’re also part of the Child Care Aware program for military families and accept ABC vouchers. If you’re interested in learning more or scheduling a tour, feel free to reach out to us. You can fill out a form to capture your contact details and the ages of your children, or you can give us a call at 803-782-8800 or send us an email.
*Tuition rates are reviewed on an annual basis, and changes usually occur in January. Tuition rates are subject to change with a 30-day notice.

"Thank you so much for all y'all do! Last night at bedtime Lucy asked for her Bible then
looked at me and said 'Noah. Ark.' What you're teaching is sinking in. It's wonderful!"

“Finding St. Michael’s six years ago was a Godsend! My grandkids have thrived under teachers who care,
even after the kids move to their next class and graduate! It really is a family!”
Margie H.
"My family is very thankful for the ABC Jesus Loves Me curriculum! My 1-year-old and my 4-year-old are both
experiencing interactive lessons that incorporate play and academics, but most importantly a love for Jesus! We love receiving Brightwheel pictures of my 1-year-old doing hands-on activities that correlate with the story of Moses or pictures of my 4-year-old participating in hands-on activities about forgiveness. My family feels blessed that our children are so engaged with a curriculum that focuses on learning about God and academics!"

“I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all of the great new changes you have brought to St. Michael’s since you started. I have been very impressed and appreciative. I love the daily picture updates that are being sent and all of the extra activities you have planned. And I am especially grateful for the new 4K classroom. “A” loves his new classroom, and I have noticed a big, positive change in his progress with learning. My husband and I are very grateful for all that you do.”

“St. Michael’s ELC provides a safe, nurturing and educational environment for children. Like any parent, I was nervous about leaving my son with virtual strangers beginning at 14 weeks old, but within weeks, his teachers became like family. I cannot say enough amazing things about all of the teachers my son has had in his four classrooms at St. Michael’s ELC. Their dedication to and genuine affection for my child allows me to concentrate on my demanding full-time job without having to worry about my son. The director continues to create the best possible learning environment where children can thrive. We initially chose St. Michael’s ELC because of its proximity to our home, but I’m glad we did because we have gained so much in our relationship with the teachers as well as new friends in other families with children there.”

“My family has been so pleased with the care and education that our son has received at St. Michael’s ELC. The teachers and staff truly love him and have been instrumental in helping him to grow and develop. They also help me anytime I have a concern about anything from a developmental milestone to knowing how to navigate the next developmental phase that he is entering (thank goodness for the potty-training advice!!) All of the parents also do an excellent job of supporting one another. It is definitively a nurturing environment for our whole family that has a wonderful sense of community. I would highly recommend St. Michael’s ELC!”
Therese E.
“We have found our home at St. Michael’s ELC! We have been so happy to find such a loving place where our children are nurtured and loved while we are at work. The Staff is so caring and intuitive, and our children love coming to school every day! We are lucky to have found the ELC and will cherish our time here!”
