Our Director
Jennifer Cade, Director
Jennifer is honored to serve as the Director of RCK Preschool. Jennifer began her professional career in Education in 2007. With a Master's Degree in Education, Jennifer spent the first thirteen years of her career as an Elementary Special Education Teacher and Early Intervention Specialist in New York City. It was there that she learned the value of tailoring every learning experience to the abilities, goals and interests of each child, a task that she remains dedicated to today. Jennifer has extensive knowledge of the educational milestones and learning standards for children from birth through 12 years of age and the experience that comes from working closely with our youngest learners since 2007. Jennifer joined the RCK staff in 2020 and became Director at RCK Preschool in 2021.
Jennifer is passionate about creating an environment in which a love for learning is encouraged and developed. She enjoys supporting RCK's incredible teachers in making each classroom a fun, loving and magical space for all who enter its doors. Jennifer believes that play-based learning in the preschool years is essential to developing happy, balanced and successful lifelong learners who are well prepared for all that lies ahead.
Outside of RCK, Jennifer enjoys spending time with her husband, Nick, and their three young children. They have been Ridgefield residents since 2018.
