A Child’s Place

At a Child's Place, we promote each child's emotional, social, cognitive and physical development.

Each year, A Child's Place serves 60 children ages 3 through 6 years of age from the U.S. as well as Asia, Africa, Europe, and Central and South America. The school is licensed and accredited by the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE), and offers an MSDE-approved kindergarten program. The school is open Monday through Friday between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. C

A Child's Place also hosts a summer camp for children ages three to six (entering first grade).
