Thurgood Marshall Child Development Center

Welcome to Thurgood Marshall Child Development Center!

At Thurgood Marshall Child Development Center, we believe in providing quality care for children from 3 months to kindergarten. Nestled in the heart of Washington, D.C., just a stone's throw from Union Station, our center is a warm and friendly place where your child can thrive.

A Loving Community

We strive to create a loving community of children, parents, teachers, and friends. Our talented and highly trained staff are not just teachers; they are nurturing guides who understand that every child learns in their own unique way. They follow each child's natural rhythm, ensuring that learning is both fun and engaging.

Learning Through Play

We use the Creative Curriculum, which is all about play! This child-initiated approach helps satisfy your child's natural curiosity and eagerness to explore. Our responsive teachers know that children learn best through active involvement with people, materials, and ideas. They foster a dynamic environment that encourages:

• Wonder
• Sociability
• Problem-solving
• A love for quality literature
• Learning through play

Outdoor Adventures and Enrichment Programs

In addition to our exciting classroom experiences, children enjoy our large, private outdoor playground. They also love going on neighborhood walks and have the chance to take field trips to exciting destinations! To enrich their learning even further, we offer programs in Spanish, music, and gymnastics.

Partnering with Parents

We see parents and teachers as partners in your child's education. We value close, regular, and open communication to ensure that everyone is on the same page. Our environment respects individuality and differences, and we have an open door policy—parents are always welcome to visit!

Join us at Thurgood Marshall Child Development Center, where your child's journey of discovery and learning begins!
