Our Story
At The Mustard Seed, we have been nurturing young minds since our inception on January 3, 2005. Founded by Owner Nancy Wieglosz Koon, BS, MSW, we take immense pride in creating an environment that fosters learning and growth, making us a cherished institution in D’Iberville, MS.
With a commitment to excellence, we offer a comprehensive range of programs that cater to the holistic development of children. Our dedicated team understands the importance of early childhood education and strives to create a great place for children to learn and flourish.
At the heart of our approach lies our carefully curated preschool curriculum, which forms the backbone of our educational philosophy. We believe that every child's development journey is unique, and our curriculum is designed to address various aspects of their growth, including gross motor skills, language development, cognitive milestones, numeracy skills, and kindergarten preparedness. Our emphasis on learning through play ensures that education is an enjoyable and engaging experience for every child.
Our commitment to diversity and inclusion is reflected in our age-based programs, catering to children of different age groups – from one to four years old. We recognize the significance of tailored education and support for each developmental stage, and our programs are structured accordingly.
One of the cornerstones of our approach is our musical program. We understand the profound impact that music can have on a child's cognitive and emotional development, and our curriculum incorporates musical elements to enhance their overall learning experience.
In addition to our academic pursuits, we offer a Christian-based program that instills values and ethics in our young learners. This program is designed to foster a strong foundation in both education and character development.
Our physical location at 4247 Popp’s Ferry Rd in D’Iberville, MS, serves as a nurturing haven for our students. Through engaging classroom activities, we focus on nurturing social skills, fine motor skills, early literacy, arts and creativity, and cognitive development. Our aim is to prepare children for their future academic endeavors while ensuring they enjoy the journey of discovery.
To reach out to us, please don't hesitate to give us a call at (228) 392-7405. We are always excited to connect with parents and guardians who share our passion for quality early childhood education. At The Mustard Seed, we continue to sow the seeds of knowledge, growth, and happiness, ensuring that every child flourishes in their own unique way.

I have both my children here - one year and two years old. They are both cared for and loved by all of the teachers. You can tell they each love my kids and my kids love them back. We have not had any issues the entire time here, and there is great communication from the staff using the Bright Wheel app. 100% recommend them, no matter the situation!

had this to say:
We love our school! This was my daughter's first school experience after almost 3 years of staying home with me. All of the staff/teachers are so kind and caring it made the transition so easy. She loves her school and prays for all of her teachers daily. They use the brightwheel app for check in/out and daily updates including meals, activities, photos, and ability to message directly with your child's teacher. They have tumble buggy weekly among other fun activities, and teach Bible lessons as well as academic ones which is so important to us. We are so grateful for The Mustard Seed!

had this to say:
My daughter loves this day care. The daycare Shares a strong faith with the Lord as my family does and it excites me to know my daughter is in good hands. It’s to the point where my daughter even prays for her teachers at school to have good days. That’s how much she cares about the staff, and she’s only 3. They have a very secure check in and out process, and a awesome app that details your child’s day. From uploading cute pictures, to a detail description of their meals. I highly recommend the Mustard Seed for your child care needs! Feel free to ask any questions that I can answer about my personal experience as a parents!
