PromiseLand Child Care
PromiseLand Child Care is a ministry of Rush United Methodist Church that operates a New York state licensed child care facility. 
Our Mission: PromiseLand is committed to providing a warm, secure, responsive environment in which children can develop Christian values and self-worth; and grow physically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually.
Our Purpose is: to help a child develop a healthy personality, and develop the conscience, feelings, and attitudes which form the foundation for a positive self-image and good relationships.
To encourage the child's self-confidence, concern for others, cooperation in work and play, and a spirit of sharing.
To increase the child's skills in listening, self-discipline, conversation, creative self-expression, independent work and play, and decision making.
We offer an exciting program in a child-friendly facility with a nurturing atmosphere, and a caring, well-trained staff.  Well-balanced lunches and snacks are provided daily, prepared on the premises by our professionally trained chef.
