About Us
The Cheshire Nursery School is family owned and operated by Suzanne Miller and her daughter Nicole Miller Stevens. The Millers opened The Carrot Patch Early Learning Center at 235
Johnson Road in Hamden in 2005 to offer a first-rate children's program not widely available outside the New Haven/Yale community. The Center has been an amazing success story, and the Cheshire Nursery School is the natural outgrowth of this experience.
One of our keys to providing the best possible learning environment for young children has been the wisdom and guidance of Janice Romo. Jan brings over 35 years experience in education, from teaching kindergarten through teaching early childhood teachers at Southern Connecticut State University, and every imaginable role in between involving the education of young children. She has been a tremendous asset as Educational Consultant and Staff Developer at The CarrotPatch. And now Jan serves the Cheshire Nursery School as Executive Director.
Jan and Suzanne have established solid ties to Cheshire's Darcey School in order to provide a meaningful link between the preschool and kindergarten programs offered at Darcey and the programming and activities presented at the Cheshire Nursery School. Our goal is to enhance the experiences provided at Darcey by providing fun and interesting enrichment opportunities as well as directed discovery and free-play, without duplicating the public school day. Through an individualized approach to learning based on the Bank Street model and The Creative Curriculum, and the employment of only professional degreed teachers, the Cheshire Nursery School program stands on its own as a meaningful, valuable and fun children's program, even for those not attending
kindergarten at Darcey.
