Welcome to Friendswood Children’s House, Friendswood’s premier educational child care facility, serving children ages 16 months through 2nd grade. We are a family-owned Christian school that has been honored to partner with families in the Houston Bay Area for 50 years, nurturing children in both faith and academics.
At Friendswood Children’s House, our mission is to provide a Christ-centered learning environment where each child is valued as a unique creation of God. We combine Montessori principles with a highly academic curriculum, using an exceptional teaching approach designed to help students reach their full, God-given potential. Our classrooms are thoughtfully designed to encourage growth, curiosity, and a joy for learning each day.
Through hands-on, sensory-based instruction, students build strong foundations in science, math, reading, and writing while learning important Christian values such as respect, kindness, responsibility, and love for others. We believe that education is most successful when families and teachers work together, and we prioritize open communication through daily reports, newsletters, and two parent-teacher conferences each year to celebrate your child’s progress.
At Friendswood Children’s House, we believe that with faith, respect, and opportunity, your child will develop a lifelong love of learning and a strong foundation.

Along with providing excellent care for your child, our goal is to nurture each child’s social and emotional development. One way we support this growth is by teaching foundational Biblical principles and reinforcing them throughout the day.
Children participate in an interactive devotional time daily and explore a different Bible story each week. We pray before lunch, thanking God for His provision. Our PreK 4, Transition, and Kindergarten classes also spend time memorizing Bible verses.
As children interact with their friends and teachers, they are gently reminded of the moral truths found in Jesus’ teachings—encouraging them to share, show kindness, and resolve conflict in loving ways. We believe that Jesus is our Savior, and we joyfully share this truth with our students.

Testimonials From Educators
Early Preschool
Between the ages of 16 months and 3 years, your child's intelligence and social characteristics will be formed. This is also when your child desires to do things independently and will thrive through exploration. Research proves young children gain knowledge when provided an opportunity to explore their world and interact with their environment. It might look like just child's play, but early preschoolers are hard at work learning important physical skills as they gain muscle control, balance, and coordination. A language rich environment promotes speech and vocabulary. At this age our students also have opportunity to learn about shapes, colors, animals, and seasons- all of which can be reinforced through literature.
Pre-K 3
Three year olds are like sponges: they absorb new experiences. Because they are developmentally curious and gain knowledge through active involvement, our teachers develop lessons designed to encourage and excite the young learner. Classrooms are created to stimulate opportunity for children to learn, grow and develop their skills confidently. Preschool classrooms provide an opportunity to build language skills through imaginary play, finger plays, series through dramatic play and a print rich environment. Social growth is encouraged through shared and independent learning activities. Motor skills develop through games, music and movement, stringing, lacing, and creative art. Cognitive and math skills frow in through matching, classifying, sequencing events, identifying colors, shapes and size, rote counting, and much more. Our teachers also help develop life skills in the children through interactive play and biblical truths.
Kindergarten & Transition Kindergarten
Friendswood Children's House has been creating life long learners for over 40 years. Our highly individualized Kindergarten curriculum with a modest student-teacher ratio provides children an opportunity to establish a strong foundation of academics, as well as social, emotional, physical and moral development. This approach encourages a child's independence, self-motivation, and decision-making skills.
In this class the students are taught how to be self-directed in the classroom. Our curriculum is Montessori based and enriched with traditional academics. This creates a balanced academic program for your child that goes beyond what is taught in a traditional public school classroom. The curriculum is also individualized so each student has the opportunity to meet his/her greatest potential.
Friendswood Children’s House has truly been our home away from home. There is nothing more comforting than sending your children to school each day without a single worry—knowing they are genuinely loved, nurtured, and cared for by teachers and staff who treat them as their own.
As a former teacher myself, I do not take educational environments lightly, and Friendswood Children’s House exceeds every expectation. Our oldest son attended FCH for four years, and the foundation he received there was exceptional. Through individualized, Montessori-style instruction, he was encouraged to grow at his own pace while developing confidence, independence, and a genuine love for learning. He entered kindergarten with strong academic skills, an impressive reading ability, and—most importantly—a curiosity and enthusiasm for learning that continues today. The way FCH meets each child where they are, while still challenging them to grow, is something I deeply value as both a parent and an educator.
Beyond academics, we are incredibly grateful for the faith-based environment that is so naturally woven into daily learning. Friendswood Children’s House truly partners with families, reinforcing the values we work to instill at home.
We are so excited to continue our family’s journey at Friendswood Children’s House with our youngest child and are endlessly thankful for the lasting impact it has had on our children’s hearts, minds, and faith.

My experience with Friendswood Children's House far exceeded my expectations. When I was searching for a preschool to enroll my daughter into four years ago, I was simply looking for a safe, loving environment with an introduction to basic skills and socialization. Friendswood Children's House proved to be much more than that; it has also provided a solid foundation for my child's education. The curriculum included individualized instruction but also concentrated on independent learning. Upon entering the kindergarten program, my child was already reading due to her exposure at the Children's House preschool for the past three years. The kindergarten teacher adjusted her curriculum to meet the diverse needs of the individual members in the class and allowed students to excel at their own pace. I have also been very impressed with the science program that was included in the kindergarten curriculum. Not only were scientific concepts taught, but they were reinforced with experiments. Overall, I feel my child has been given a first class foundation for her continuing education in the public schools.
