Welcome to Our School
Welcome to our Childtime educational daycare in Chester, VA - a Virginia Quality Rated school. We offer a curriculum based on the philosophy of Reggio Emilia to families in the Chester, Chesterfield, Richmond, Tri-Cities and Ft. Lee areas. My name is Nikki and I am the center director.

Our curriculum provides a comprehensive and developmentally-appropriate foundation for our Infant to Preschool students. We also offer a fun and exciting curriculum for our school-agers that helps them to build their self esteem and their positive view of the world!
