The South Riding Children's Center is part of the greater Child's Play company that offers students a private liberal arts education. It is a preschool and day care center that was founded by parents in 1985 - a fact that is highlighted by its small town home exterior design and welcoming porch. It is conveniently located in the heart of the up-and-coming residential communities in the South Riding area, offers accommodations for special needs students, and offers pick-up and drop-off services from surrounding public schools.
