Susan Birnbaum

Hello, everyone! My name is Susan Birnbaum, and I am honored to be the Director of Children’s All Day School! I started here in 2013 joining an experienced, kind, and loving staff like no other I have seen. I am a native New Yorker, born in Brooklyn and now living on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. I have a wonderful daughter and a great husband also from New York. I earned my teaching certification at Clark University and a Master’s Degree in Education from the University of Massachusetts. I have spent over three decades as an educator in a variety of roles. My first teaching job was in New York City’s District 2. During my tenure, I became a staff developer as I helped teachers create meaningful curriculum for their students. I then worked as a curriculum developer for over ten years at Scholastic and McGraw-Hill, where I wrote books for teachers and students. Eventually, I became a Professor of Early Childhood Education both at Kean University and B.M.C.C. Yet, with all of my professional experiences, being part of the C.A.D.S. community has been the most rewarding and fulfilling experience of them all! I believe children should spend their early years surrounded by exceptional experiences and learned caregivers, both of which can easily be found at Children’s All Day School.
