Our Values

Our core values are articulated by something we do every day…teach children their ABCs and 123s. This simple phrase represents our values and who we strive to be each and every day.

Our Program Goals

We believe all children are unique and have the potential to make a great impact on the world. Our goals for children while they attend are:

  • Develop a sense of emotional security, trust in their teachers (caregivers) and their environment.

  • Develop a growing sense of autonomy, initiative and curiosity.

  • Develop self-confidence.

  • Build a life-long love of learning.

  • Develop and demonstrate pro-social behaviors such as cooperation, sharing, and taking turns.

  • Demonstrate problem solving skills.

  • Expand critical thinking skills.

  • Expand verbal communication skills.

  • Be prepared to start Kindergarten.


Our Commitment

Our commitment to families is centered on three core principles we use to guide decisions at our company. Using this framework will help ensure great experiences for children, achievement of professional goals for our staff, and facilitate trusting relationships with parents.

Our Team

Our team of professionals are passionate about young children and their learning and we come together to educate and care for every child. They are some of the most fun, creative, and caring people in the world...and we are honored that they work for us!

Our Story

Every journey has a first step and with Cedar Gables it was no different. We’ve been serving families in Connecticut since 1972 and are proud to call Danbury home. While some things may not look like they did 50 years ago, one thing remains the same…we love children!
