The Nest Daycare & Preparatory Center is a cherished component of NCT's broader vision for its forthcoming physical Christian campus. Dedicated in honor of Mr. Willard Sparrow and Elder Bernice Spellman, The Nest pays tribute to two remarkable Christian leaders who provided essential early childhood daycare services and youth programs for the children and families in our local community. Their dedication and commitment to nurturing young minds have left an indelible mark on the lives of those they served for decades.The impact of Mr. Sparrow and Elder Spellman’s work in their respective communities is a legacy that will never be forgotten by the countless children and families who benefited from their unwavering transformative leadership and community service. They created nurturing environments that not only provided essential family service and child care, but also fostered personal growth and development. Their dedication to the well-being of children was evident in every aspect of their work, from biblical curriculum they implemented to the love and support they offered each child.Our founder, Elder Jessica C. Reid, had the privilege of attending both daycare centers during her early childhood development, which profoundly influenced her life’s mission. It was through her personal experiences at Sparrow’s Nest Daycare and Spellman’s in-home Daycare that Elder Reid recognized the significance of Christian education and training in shaping young lives. These experiences instilled in her the values of compassion, integrity, and service, which continue to guide the vision of The Nest.

At The Nest, we are dedicated to upholding the legacy of Christ through the foundational work of Mr. Sparrow and Elder Spellman by providing an environment that promotes spiritual, emotional, and educational growth. Our curriculum is designed to incorporate Christian principles, ensuring that each child learns the importance of faith, kindness, and community engagement.

We believe that early childhood education should be holistic, nurturing not just the intellect, but also the spirit of each child. We also recognize the vital role that families play in the development of their children. Therefore, we actively encourage parental involvement and community engagement, fostering strong relationships that extend beyond the classroom. By building a supportive network of families, educators, and community members, we create a nurturing environment that reinforces our commitment to the development of excellence for each child. The Nest Daycare & Preparatory Center strives to transform the lives of young children today, preparing them to become the powerful leaders of our tomorrow. We honor the Word of God given through biblical scripture, and the memories of Mr. Willard Sparrow and Elder Bernice Spellman by carrying forth their vision of integrating Christian values into early childhood education. Our mission is to create a loving and supportive atmosphere that nurtures each child’s spiritual and academic growth. This ensures that their transformative legacy of leadership lives on in the next generation. Together, we are laying the foundation for a brighter future, one child at a time.
