The Mini Monarch’s Child Care Ministry is a faith-based program focusing on families!  We love that many of our school families are able to send ALL of their children to the same place!  The program was started last year by two former St. Joan of Arc teachers!  Joni Forestal and Emilee Henschen are both very excited to be back at the school!  Joni has a two year old son. Emilee has a two and a half-year old son and a new baby!

We offer child care Monday – Friday from 8:00am-3:00pm in the lower level of St. Joan of Arc Catholic School.  Children need to be one year old by July 1st to enroll in our program.  We welcome children ages 1-3 years old.


We will follow a routine each day to promote a consistent, comfortable environment for our children.  This routine is based on activities that correlate with the Indiana Foundations for Learning for birth to age 3.  Infants and toddlers are active explorers from the day they are born.  We plan on creating a faith-based environment that encourages exploration, building connections, and problem solving through hands-on activities.


Our fee for a full day is $35/day.  Our fee for half day (8:00am-12:00noon) is $20/day.  We are flexible to your choice of days and hours needed.
