At Community Day Nursery, we’ve been dedicated to serving the children and
families of East Orange for over 126 years. This holiday season, our Holiday
Fundraising Drive is focused on ensuring that our neediest children have a holiday
meal. Your donation will go towards Shoprite Gift Cards, allowing our children to have a
Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. Join us in making a difference in the lives of our
community’s most vulnerable families.

Welcome to Community Day, a high-quality preschool and childcare program serving families in East Orange since 1897.  We partner with the East Orange School District to offer three- and four-year old children a free public prekindergarten program in a warm and caring early childhood environment.  Extended hours are available for families in need of childcare before and after school.

Our Programs provides children with consistent care and guidance that will promote social-emotional development, the foundation for learning. Our curriculum focuses on social-emotional development as well as cognitive skills including literacy and math. Special guest and projects help children to explore new ideas.
