St. Paul’s Children’s Center was established in August 2003 in an effort to provide quality child care to St. Paul’s parishioners and to residents of St. Petersburg, Florida. We are a Catholic early childhood center of the Diocese of St. Petersburg, and a ministry of St. Paul’s Catholic Church. We are licensed and comply with Pinellas County Child Care Licensing Board for children’s centers, Pinellas County Health Department, and Pinellas County Fire Services.

St. Paul’s Children’s Center encourages the continuing growth of children’s knowledge and understanding of themselves and their world. We provide a faith-based, safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where learning flourishes. We recognize that children are individuals and that each child is unique. Our program accommodates the broad range of children’s needs, their learning rates and styles, their knowledge, experiences, and interests to facilitate continuous learning and to pursue their own interests as members of the Catholic Community and God’s world. We achieve this through an integrated curriculum incorporating a variety of instructional models and resources.
