The mission of Noblesville Methodist Preschool and Parents Day Out (PDO) program is to provide a loving Christian environment where children can develop spiritually, socially, intellectually, physically, and emotionally; to help each child discover and explore God’s world and experience God’s love, and to enable a child to grow in confidence, and feel secure in relationships with other children and enjoy the love of adults other than their parents.
Noblesville Methodist Preschool and Parents Day Out is proud to announce this is our 55th year serving Noblesville and the surrounding communities. Our experienced teachers are degreed, CPR certified, and have a passion for early childhood education. Our teachers have a combined total of 100+ years of teaching! Our programs offer diverse, age-appropriate learning experiences and activities for children from 12 months to 6 years old.
Children are provided with challenging opportunities to pursue their interests, seek information, and expand their critical thinking skills. The classes are designed to enable individual and group problem-solving activities, role-playing, and exploration and discovery of real objects and inventive ideas.
The programs provide a secure environment where each child feels accepted, respected and nurtured through pursuits that foster well-being and a sense of self-worth.
A balance of structured curriculum coupled with free play encourages interaction with other students and the classroom teachers. The children learn respect, cooperation, and compassion while acquiring communication and problem-solving skills.
Our preschool accepts children ages 12 months to 6 years old.
We follow the guidelines established by Noblesville Schools to determine placement in classes. All students must be the following age before August 1st of the current school year.

We believe that when children play, they learn, and that is the central component of our instruction. Through high interest themes, teachers are able to implement differentiated activities that grow the whole child–spiritually, socially, academically, and emotionally.
At NMP, you will find children developing their gross motor skills at one of our many play areas, both indoors and outdoors. Sensory bins can be found in every classroom, strengthening those fine motor muscles. Academic skills are taught through music, art, games, and more, meeting the child at their current level. And through everything we do, children are learning how to do the right thing and treat people right in a faith based environment.
Your first month’s tuition (August/September) and your last month’s tuition (May) are both due and payable by September 1. The remaining 7 tuition payments will be due by the 1st of October, November, December, January, February, March and April.
Our preschool has secure entry points, and all visitors must sign in and be escorted while on the premises. Staff are trained in emergency procedures, and we conduct regular safety drills.
PDO: No! PDO offers classes for children that are not fully potty trained. Children wearing diapers need to bring a well-stocked diaper bag to the classroom, in addition to a full change of clothes that will be kept in their backpack.
Preschool: Yes! All students enrolled in preschool classes (not PDO) must be fully potty trained. Children who are toilet-trained need to keep a change of clothes in their backpack. In the event of an accident, teachers will not enter bathrooms to assist in clean-up, but will walk them through it, every step of the way. If the child needs assistance beyond what a teacher can offer, parents will be called.
My son started attending the pre k program this year. We toured last spring and Lyndsay (the director) was amazing! She was so helpful with any questions or concerns that I had. The teachers and staff are seriously over the top and love these kids like their own. My son has learned so much and absolutely loves school, his teachers and his friends. One of my favorite things is getting to see pictures and updates from each school day. They are always doing something creative and fun. My son is attending the transitional Kindergarten class this fall and we are so excited that we get another year with this amazing school. We feel truly blessed that we have found, what we believe, to be the best school for our son and future children!
We started out putting our daughter in PDO when she was almost three. She quickly grew from being around other children and having great teachers. We returned for 3-4s pre school class and she has learned so much! Her teachers communicate with us on the regular and we adore them. We moved to the next town over and there’s closer pre schools to us, but we are choosing to send her back next year for Pre-K. She loves school and we love seeing her grow and learn in a faith based environment.
My 2 youngest attended preschool and pre-k here. They were both well prepared for Kindergarten. This school fit our needs perfectly. As a stay at home mom at the time, I didn’t need a full day program but my children needed a program where they could learn to socialize with a group of children, learn to share, and learn to follow the routines and procedures of another adult like their rules and sitting and listening. The qualifications of staff was a huge plus and everyone was very welcoming and friendly. Having been a former early childhood educator myself, I liked that they were given the freedom to create their own curriculum too.
Come see for yourself why Noblesville Methodist Preschool is a great fit for you and your little learner!
