Londonderry Child Development Society

LCDS is an independent, non-profit early childhood services program, and a parent cooperative. As a parent cooperative, parents play a crucial role in the program’s operations and sustainability through volunteering in the classroom, for various committees and the Board of Directors.
LCDS offers a unique early learning experience by combining preschool and kindergarten in a single classroom. Our program embraces a “learning through play” philosophy, providing a language-rich and engaging environment focused on high-quality education, speech & language and kindergarten readiness. Children aged 3 to 5 participate in a daily structured routine that balances guided learning activities with free play. The curriculum is designed to foster the age-appropriate development of language, social skills, emotional growth, cultural understanding, physical abilities, and intellectual curiosity. Our dedicated teaching staff introduces kindergarten concepts and prepares children for future educational success, building a solid foundation for their academic journey.
