Oak Grove Child Care Center is a state-licensed program established in 1988. It is a division of Redeemed Assembly, a non-profit organization founded in 1979 whose purpose is to serve the community by “finding and meeting the needs of people.” The center participates in the Child and Adult Care Food Program and provides breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack, described as delicious and nutritious meals and snacks. The program lists affordable tuition, before and after school care, enrichment activities, a certified curriculum, programs for infants through school-age, an open-door policy for parents, and a safe and secure environment among its features.

The mission of Oak Grove Child Care Center states a dedication and commitment to children by providing exceptional education and quality child care for children six weeks to 12 years of age, regardless of race, creed, color, or origin. The mission explains that Oak Grove Child Care Center is a place of bright beginnings that help develop and nourish firm foundations with active learning through play and discovery. The program’s stated focus is to help students develop their social, emotional, literacy, language, creative, cognitive, and physical skills. The mission further states that early childhood experiences provide the foundation for one’s lifetime, and that the Early Childhood Program provides experiences that promote social, emotional, physical, language and literacy, and cognitive development. The program’s beliefs include that each child is unique and that the program provides for individual needs and differences, that a child’s self-perceptions are influenced by the attitudes of significant others and thus the program provides a positive, supportive, and accepting environment, and that young children learn about their environment through direct and concrete experiences, so Oak Grove provides opportunities for discovery, exploration, and experimentation.

According to the program’s description, Oak Grove Child Care Center provides a safe, healthy, and secure environment for early learning. Classrooms are filled with developmentally appropriate toys and activities, and centers are changed periodically with toys rotated to keep activities new and exciting. The program highlights experienced and nurturing staff and an open-door policy for parents as key features.

The staff description states that teachers and staff are highly qualified and guide the way for children to become independent while making good choices. The Oak Grove staff has been carefully screened, and teachers are selected based on nurturing skills, experience, and educational backgrounds. Staff members have formal training in childcare or a related field with extensive experience in childhood group learning settings. Each caregiver is certified in daily health screening, bloodborne pathogens, First Aid and CPR, and trained on COVID-19, and the program notes that CPR/First Aid trained staff are on site.
