Riverside Child Care and Learning Center

My kids absolutely love this daycare. They are in older toddler and pre school and everyone is so amazing. My kids are learning so much and they do so many activities with them. Bridgette and Debbie are the best when you need anything. I couldn’t imagine any other place for my children.

My daughter went here from Pre1- the time she could start Kindergarten at WBSD. She was well prepared. We treated “daycare” as school and bot child care. She was well rounded and ready for Kindergarten by the time it came. She was socialized and didn't even bat an eye when we dropped her off on that first day of Kindergarten. She is 12 now and I am still in touch with this center. I donate many items to them and have become friends with a handful of staff here. My 3 nephews went here also and all are in grade school now. Never had an issue. A handful of kids that went here with my daughter are now with her as in middle school. We made so many memories here. Highly recommend.

Very disappointed in Riverside. Had a good experience until COVID, the center had a confirmed infection and allowed staff to return to teaching and interacting with children without requiring testing. Then they charged us tuition for the time we were out immediately after their staff’s positive COVID test. Sought a compromise with the ownership to protect our daughter but they refused to work with us on a solution, saying we could abide by their policies or pull our child out permanently. The owner made sure to mention they had plenty of calls from parents wanting to enroll, making us feel like they didn’t care about us or our daughter as there were plenty of other kids waiting to get in. If they’re willing to cut a corner after a positive COVID test, we can’t trust Riverside not to cut other corners. Good childcare is hard to come by but it’s not worth the risk of putting your child in danger.

My 3 yr old son started in the fall and he just loves it. He has learned a lot in a short amount of time and he has come so far socially. Unfortunately, he bounced to a number of different daycare providers prior to this but we're happy we finally found such a great place that we trust. Great staff, especially the preschool teachers!
