  • We have sent our two children to Riverside, and it’s been one positive experience after another. Great classrooms, great play spaces, great safe places nearby for walks and field trips for all ages, and most of all the greatest teachers. Every classroom is led by experienced, caring teachers who love kids and support their parents in navigating the changes and challenges of early childhood. Support from teachers (who our children adore) is augmented by great outside programs that enrich learning through music, sports, nature lessons, and gymnastics. Our children are excited to go to school every day, and we know they are known and cared for every hour they are at Riverside. And the supportive group of kind and caring families that comprise the community make the center feel like home for us too.

  • We have been sending our children to Riverside for the past 8 years and could not be happier with our time there. The hours, classroom curriculum, and outdoor play yards are fantastic, but the teachers and staff are really what sets this place apart. It is easy to see how much they care about each individual child and the family atmosphere is pretty special. The field trips and summer camp activities for the preschool age kids also stand out to me. I would highly recommend RCC to anyone in the area.

  • My two children have had wonderful experiences at Riverside. It is extraordinary how much the teachers care about each kid. The fact that such excellent teachers often choose to stay at Riverside for decades says quite a lot about the center itself. If you're considering childcare options in the area, I highly recommend Riverside.

  • I have 2 children who attend Riverside and I cannot say enough positive things about RCC. The teachers are truly the backbone of the program, and there is an amazing sense of community for all who attend. Many teachers have been there longer than 10 years (some over 30 years!), which is truly a testament to the quality of the program. Everyone knows everyone’s name! Your child will truly have a family at Riverside and the stability and consistency to be successful.

  • We’ve had a great experience with Riverside. The main teachers have years of experience, and it really shows in how they care for and engage with the kids. They offer a thoughtful curriculum with a variety of activities that encourage diverse play and development. They also organize a lot of family events which creates a strong sense of community among families. We’ve had one child grow through the program and now have our other enrolled as well, which says a lot about how much we trust them.

  • We've had a wonderful experience at Riverside! The student teacher ratio is the best I have seen. All of the teachers are incredibly caring! We feel so comfortable dropping off our kids each day. The teachers make sure to work with each child individually, helping them with what they need to work on and allowing them to follow their interests. My kids also love the playground and running around the large auditorium. The school also works hard at creating a great community for all the families through many school-wide family events.
