Oakcrest Rivergate

Children can start as early as 6 weeks old. We care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, so many families stay with us as their child grows.

Dropoff begins at 7:00am. Children must be picked up by 6:30pm

We offer “red carpet” drop-off. You stay in your vehicle, and our staff walks your child to the classroom, so you can get to work quickly and the classroom stays calm. Afternoon pick-up happens inside the building or through our car line.

Yes! We love babies at Oakcrest.
