Oakland Presbyterian Preschool is a ministry of Oakland Presbyterian Church. We offer a high-quality preschool program in a safe, secure, and nurturing environment. Our teachers are fingerprinted and must pass a nationally screened background check. They are all trained and certified according to state standards. We use a Christian faith-based curriculum, and we focus on appropriate preschool goals. Our primary purpose is to teach, guide, and love children, to make a lifelong impression on their lives and the lives of their families, and to teach them about the love of Jesus Christ. Please note that we are not a daycare- we can not enroll children under age 2, and we do not offer drop-off before 8:30 am or pick-up past 3:15 pm. For information, contact our director at preschool@oaklandpres.org.
