The Child Development Laboratories (CDL) are part of the Department of Human Development and Family Studies and serve the university, community and state as a model demonstration laboratory center.

The CDL is licensed by the state of Connecticut and accredited by the National Academy of Early Childhood Programs.

Programs for 100 children age six weeks to five years are offered through the CDL as a function of its role as a setting for teaching, training and research in early childhood education and development.

Three programs, Infant, Toddler and Preschool, are open ten hours a day, five days a week, for thirty-seven weeks a year.

The CDL's primary goal is to foster the optimal development of children. We offer child-centered curricula based on current research and knowledge of early childhood education and child development.
