Abstract

Catch cries such as ‘high quality care’ and

‘warm, caring environment’ seem to be standard

descriptors of early childhood learning

environments regardless of the centre’s

philosophy. No longer can one claim that these

descriptors are unique to a centre staffed by

Christians. Christian care providers need to look

deeper into their practices to determine what

makes their centre unique.
