About Children's Day School
Children’s Day School provides a full-day, year-round learning environment for children 6 weeks to five years old. Established in 1946 as Christian Day School, Children’s Day School (CDS) was renamed in 2000 and expanded to two campuses as a result of the collaborative efforts of the Junior League of Greenwich and Greenwich United Way.
Our early childhood early care and education program adheres to the highest quality standards and implements principles and guidelines driven by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) and the latest early childhood research of best practice. We are a licensed childcare center by the state of Connecticut Office of Early Childhood.
CDS promotes independence and intellectual, emotional, social and physical development through a curriculum that is enjoyable, stimulating, developmentally appropriate and nurtures creativity. We create a play-based educational experience that is inclusive and culturally responsive. Our graduates are ready for school success and lifelong learning.
We pride ourselves on having a dedicated teaching team and a competitive, comprehensive benefit package in order to retain quality educators. All teachers have education and training in early childhood development and education.
CDS has been able to support families for many years by providing affordable, exceptional childcare in our community. We are proud to provide need-based tuition assistance through the Heimbold Tuition Assistance Fund created in 2000. Over the past twelve years, we have awarded more than $1.2 million in assistance covering between 15 and 75% of annual tuition to our families who could not otherwise afford to attend. The Board of Children’s Day School and our 180 children and their families thank those who have contributed for your generosity as together we continue the Heimbold legacy.
