Both Schools' fall program's last day is Thursday, June 13th. Both schools are closed on Friday, June 14th for summer set up.  Both schools will reopen on Monday, June 17th for summer camp.

Our Philosophy is to provide care for children in a warm, nurturing environment where parents can feel secure about the safety and well being of their children. We encourage your children’s ability to learn through play with a variety of developmentally appropriate activities.

Our Goal is to encourage independence, individuality, creativity and a positive self-image for every child in our care.

Our Mission is to create a safe, healthy environment for children that will foster curiosity and creativity, support their independence, nurture their self worth, spark their desire to learn, and model respect for the uniqueness of others.

Our Curriculum meets or exceeds the CT State Benchmarks to prepare children for Kindergarten. Learning experiences encompass age-appropriate and fun activities designed to peak your child’s interest and create a desire to learn. A Child’s Garden’s curriculum advances the growth of each child in the key areas of Social/Emotional, Physical, Cognitive and Language.
