OUR STORY
Childcare associated was founded over 30
years ago by Dr Rajadevi Satchi.
Although starting as a single provider practice, it has now grown to have four board certified pediatricians as well as an advanced nurse practitioner.
Our present office is a state of the art facility located in the heart of Danbury, CT.
Our new building was constructed by our doctors to provide the optimal patient experience, complete with child friendly decor, wide hallways to accommodate double strollers, and separate sick and well waiting rooms with built in fish tanks to create a relaxing atmosphere.
All charting is done through electronic medical records and is accessible to patients via our online patient portal. Our child friendly staff will listen to patients and parents to advise with care and compassion. We are dedicated to improving the health and lives of children and families.
