More than Early Childhood
Concordia Day is the cornerstone early childhood service of Concordia Place.
Concordia Day is a cornerstone service of Concordia Place, a vibrant, local nonprofit with a vision that everyone has the opportunity to achieve their full potential. As a result, when you enroll at Concordia Day, you and your child are part of something bigger than just child care.
Concordia Place provides opportunity for education, growth, and development for young children, youth, teens, and their families. With a focus on proactive solutions to key social needs, it impacts more than 800 people every year.
Nearly 40 years ago, Concordia Place was started as an after school program by Concordia Lutheran Church (ELCA) to serve people beyond the walls of its members. Since then, Concordia Place has continually adapted to meet growing and changing community needs and now has four centers in Chicago.
Early Childhood — Building a Foundation for Life
Through purposeful play, learning and development for young children (6 weeks–5 years old) are supported by strong relationships with expert teachers that closely monitor each child’s progress.
Home Visiting — Personalized Family Support
New and expecting families get personalized, one-on-one support from an early childhood expert.
School-Age 365 — Enriching Lives Year Round
When school is out, School-Age 365 is in session! Children (5–12 years old) continue learning and having fun in this out-of-school-time program that’s customized around the schedule of local schools.
Teen Leadership — Preparing Tomorrow’s Leaders
Teens explore possibilities and are actively engaged as they build 21st century skills in leadership programs through hands-on activities in culinary, ecology, social responsibility, entrepreneurship.
It's a larger daycare facility, but what we enjoy about Concordia Day is that it always feels like a really well run 'mom & pop' type of organization- which is a positive trait for us. Also, we value the mission of Concordia Place and enjoy that our tuition at CD helps support the larger non-profit.
