Most leaders inherit someone else's culture. Someone else's systems. Someone else's traditions. At Better Beginnings Learning Center (BBLC), you'll have the unique opportunity to help build all three from the ground up. We're not simply hiring a director—we're seeking a founding leader who will help establish a legacy of Christ-centered excellence that will impact generations of children, families, educators, and our community. BBLC is a Premier Christian Early Learning Center opening in Fall 2026 on the campus of CCLV Church (Champion Center Las Vegas). More than a preschool, BBLC is a ministry designed to provide exceptional early childhood education while helping children flourish academically, socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. We believe every child is uniquely created by God with immeasurable worth and extraordinary potential. Everything we do is guided by one mission: Making Him Bigger. Making Lives Better. Being a Blessing.
Our vision is simple:
To see it in Vegas as it is in Heaven. About CCLV Church Founded in 1972, CCLV Church has faithfully served the Las Vegas Valley for more than five decades. We are a multigenerational, multicultural church committed to helping people know Jesus, grow in their faith, discover their purpose, and make a lasting difference in our city. From weekend worship to community outreach, family ministries, leadership development, and now Better Beginnings Learning Center, our desire is to reflect the heart of Christ and be a blessing to the families of Southern Nevada. The Opportunity We are seeking an exceptional leader to become our Founding Center Director. This is much more than an administrative role. It is an opportunity to launch a ministry.

To create an environment where children are known, loved, challenged, encouraged, and introduced to Jesus every single day.
