Our Mission
Pine Grove Early Learning Center is a community service of Pine Grove United Methodist Church located in the "Hereford Zone" of Northern Baltimore County. We are committed to the physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual growth of your child. We encourage learning and development through curriculum that is tailored to each age group. All programs are developmentally appropriate and geared toward helping your child develop at his or her own pace. We create an environment that helps your child flourish as an individual where they experience their own triumphs in learning.
About Us
We are licensed through the Maryland State Department of Education and provide care for children age 2 through 5th grade. We offer full and part day care as well as full and partial week schedules. We have fantastic children, excellent teachers and a beautiful, brand new building. We offer exciting extras to our program such as weekly visits from Rebounders Gymnastics, computers in every classroom and monthly entertainers that are related to the curriculum. Our School Age children come to us before and after school and are transported to Prettyboy Elementary School via the Baltimore County school buses. We are open from 6:30 a.m. to
6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. If you are looking for a home away from home for your children give us a call. Give us a call to see what openings we have available. We'd love to arrange for a tour and meet you.

Parent Testimonials
This is what our parents have to say about Pine Grove Early Learning Center:
"Our five and seven year old children have been attending PGELC for two years since we moved to the area. In the past, I have worked in several daycare situations and am currently an educator. Between our three children, we have had experiences with about 15 different daycare situations (home care, centers, church-based, etc) Having said all of this, Pine Grove has been THE VERY BEST childcare we have had!! The staff is caring, they communicate effectively and appropriately with both students and parents. The teachers are well trained and informed, and accept suggestions openly. The Director and Assistant Directors are both approachable and always available to address any needs that may arise. We HIGHLY recommend this early learning center for any family that resides in the Northern Baltimore County region." Lauren & Eric Moore
"Stacy & I, along with our son, are extremely pleased with everyone at the facility. It is very comforting to know that our son is in great hands when we drop him off in the morning. Additionally, I've come to notice that when the school bus picks up the kids for school, they are sent off with well wishes for the day as they board the bus. While that seems minuscule, it sends a message to me that the staff at Pine Grove are very sincere and very caring. Thanks to each and everyone who works at Pine Grove for making our child care needs stress free and rewarding." Bud Reinecke
"It's hard as a working Mom to drop your kids off with strangers and hope they are well cared for especially when you hear tons of crazy stories on the news. I am confident that Wyatt & Reagan are not only take care of but loved by the teachers at Pine Grove. It is a huge relief to me as a parent! They are learning so much these days and I have to attribute that to the fantastic teachers. Please pass along my gratitude!" Adrienne Hojnowski
