Faith-Based Early Education in Arvada
Peace Early Learning Center shares the love of Jesus with your child throughout the school day. In everything, we teach that God is important. Your child will learn Bible stories and Christian values alongside developmental, social, and classroom skills. Each classroom uses a Concordia Publishing House religion curriculum.
Weekly Chapel
With school-wide weekly chapel, your child learns the routine of church attendance and appropriate behavior for church during a child-specific Bible lesson from a Peace Lutheran Church Pastor or a Peace ELC teacher.
Flexible Days and Times
Flexible days and pick-up times allow you to choose the school schedule that best works for your family. At Peace ELC, your child may attend school two, three or five days a week and can be dropped off at 8:15am and picked up at 11:30am, 12:30pm, or 3:00pm. Families needing extended care may sign-up for aftercare from 3:00 - 4:00pm at an additional cost. We also offer Full day and half day Kindergarten!
Holistic Education
Our classrooms are stocked for play-based learning through a variety of art supplies, musical instruments, dramatic play, building materials, sensory tables, climbing structures, toys, games, and books. Every class plays outside daily on our age-appropriate playgrounds--even the toddlers get time in the sun.
Superb Communications
Brightwheel is an app that both parents and teachers can use. It enhances parent, teacher communication allowing us to partner in children's education. It also allows for touchless check in, curriculum updates, pictures sent straight to your phone, and classroom reminders as well.

What other parents are saying
My kids began at Peace 2 years ago and it was our first experience with a larger childcare facility. I was nervous at first but it has been nothing less than wonderful. The teachers truly care about my kids, they create a safe and fun environment and I know I have nothing to worry about. I also love the bright wheel app so I can see what they are doing throughout the day and have an easy way to communicate with the teachers. My oldest son completed kindergarten there and I was completely amazed at how much he learned so quickly. He went from not knowing all of the letter sounds to an advanced reader! I’m so excited to have my youngest complete kindergarten there as well because I know he will get the time and attention he needs, that all kids need.
Peace truly holds a special place in my heart, it’s been the best school for my boys and I’m really going to miss it when they are no longer there.
We have had all three of our kids go to Peace through Covid, kids’ illnesses and all the craziness that comes with having young kids. We are so grateful for the teachers and staff at Peace. They are loving, understanding and thorough, and have been a huge support to our family. Very thankful and cannot recommend them enough!
Our family is so thankful for Peace Early Learning Center! I was slightly apprehensive about my daughter attending school for the first time, but she really seems to love it. She has wonderful teachers. They are dedicated and positive and full of care for each student. We also appreciate the Christian education. She has fun learning about Jesus, which is a great blessing to us.
We are incredibly happy with the staff and curriculum at Peace. Both my boys feel safe and cared for by their teachers. They sing songs and say prayers daily that they learned at school and bring home the sweetest artwork. When I have needed extra help or have had questions, both the teachers and administrators have been quick to answer the call. I couldn’t be more thankful that our family is a part of this community.
We enrolled our daughter in Peace ELC’s toddler class after hearing about their good reputation and reasonable pricing from a friend. While we don’t technically belong to any church, we appreciate the love and values being taught at Peace, in addition to their commitment to play and exploration. Dylan is excited to arrive each day and is clearly at ease with not only her own teachers, but many others in the building as well. Her vocabulary is growing, and she is constantly surprising us with new skills and talents she picks up! The communication is free-flowing with the Brightwheel app, and we always know how her day is going through regular updates and amazing pictures. We would encourage any family looking for a place for their kiddo to consider Peace ELC!!
Peace has been a wonderful place for both of our children to begin their childcare and schooling experiences. They have laid some beautiful groundwork for the future, and helped our children prepare for the next step in their educational journey. The classroom size is small, which allows for more dedicated and individual attention to our child’s specific needs. The staff is warm and engaged from day one. They become an integral part of the community we entrust to love and support for our kids, and ultimately our entire family. Communication is clear and abundant. Brightwheel offers us the opportunity to connect with staff and thus our children throughout the day, from photos to potty training and nap updates, this app allows us to stay involved as best we can. The faith-based culture, combined with superior early childhood resources allow for growth and development of the highest form, and we are so grateful for the time we’ve had at Peace.
All three of our kids have been (or are currently) enrolled at Peace Early Learning Center and we can’t say enough good things about this school! The teachers and staff are simply amazing, this school is such a blessing. If you are looking for a faith-based neighborhood school, look no further!
From the ages of 2 to 5 years old, both my daughters flourished at Peace ELC. They are/were supported and loved by all the staff for the unique individuals that they are, and they both developed a greater understanding of God, friendship, kindness, teamwork, patience, and confidence. We are so very grateful for our time there.
Sending our daughter to Peace ELC has been a huge blessing to our family this year. Every day when we walk in the doors, you can genuinely feel the love and care each staff member puts into their role. In just one semester, our daughter has learned so much more than we bargained for – the curriculum and methods have worked wonders for her even at an early age. We’re so glad we found a faith-forward program where we feel confident sending our daughter to learn and grow.
My wife, toddler and I cannot adequately express our gratitude for the love and care provided for our daughter at Peace Lutheran Early Learning Center. The staff, including the director (Angelica) and instructors (Tanya and Peyton) are welcoming and offer gentle guidance that fits perfectly with our parenting preferences. In fact, our parenting has been informed and enhanced by the team (including potty-training!) as our daughter continues to grow. We are expecting another child in a few weeks, and we hope to enroll him as soon as he is eligible. My wife and I cannot imagine a better environment for our daughter! She loves going and doesn’t want to leave. While we are not consistently involved with this or any other church, we strongly respect the nurturing framework from which our child learns. The Early Learning Center’s love for children seems to be a reflection of their intent to meet Jesus’ imperative for caring for those who are vulnerable (our children!). While this is most important to us, the team is sure to sprinkle in fun recognition of each holiday, plenty of exercise, and emphasis on spending time outdoors. The staff exceeds our expectations, and we are blessed to have our daughter receive their love!
