Quality Early Childhood Program
Our center, Cathedral Daycare Early Development & Learning Center, has been recognized by the Nebraska Department of Education for our commitment to quality.
We have achieved the honor of getting rated step 4 out of 5. Our ‘Step Up to Quality Program’ goes beyond state licensing requirements to better serve the needs of young children and their families and to prepare them for success in kindergarten and beyond.
Our Story
Our St. Mary’s Cathedral Daycare grew out of the response to the community’s need for high-quality childcare and the gift of space which was afforded to us by our new parish center. Cathedral Daycare is both community service and a ministry of the parish. Cathedral Daycare opened its doors on October 21, 2009, with only two children. Today, we have over 100 children in 10 classrooms.
We provide a safe facility with a loving, nurturing environment for children to grow and learn. Our ministry is backed by a congregation with a history of reaching out to meet your needs with the love and humility Christ modeled for us.
Our Philosophy
At Cathedral Daycare, we believe education is more than learning letters, shapes, and colors and that it is about the whole person, no matter how small.
Children are born with unlimited potential. From the moment they are born, children are learning, eagerly exploring and interacting with the world around them. Our goal is to nurture this eagerness by providing opportunities for growth and exploration in a warm, safe and loving environment.

and caretakers.
