Childs Glacier (83°24′S 58°40′W) is a glacier in the Neptune Range of the Pensacola Mountains, draining westward from Roderick Valley to enter Foundation Ice Stream. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1956–66, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for John H. Childs, a builder at Ellsworth Station, winter 1958.
