Denise B. McDonald
We have been with A Child’s Place – Ridgefield Parkway Campus since they opened their doors and could not be happier. We have referred four students to join as well because we know that the kids will not only be happy and feel loved, but also have fun learning! The teachers and management are truly the BEST!

Denise’s love for children and her desire to provide children with a loving environment for growth, led her to start A Child’s Place Preschool & Child Care Centers in 1984. Since 1984, Denise has opened four child care centers in both Chesterfield and Henrico counties and has been a part of numerous child care associations. Currently, she has two child care centers, one in each county. Denise is devoted to providing a loving, caring environment for children to grow and learn. Michael and Kristen are Denise’s children and they too share in her passion of child care. Being a family owned business, A Child’s Place has a vivid understanding of what parents are looking for in a child care provider. Denise invites your family to come join our family at A Child’s Place Preschool & Child Care Centers
