Kare A Lot

Kare-A-Lot Riverside is a Columbus, OH childcare center serving the Upper Arlington area since 1984. It provides year-round care and early education for children ages six weeks to five years, operating Monday–Friday, 7:00 am–6:00 pm. Programs include Infant I, Infant II, Toddler, and Preschool classrooms built on consistent routines, small staff-to-child ratios, and a hands-on, developmentally appropriate curriculum. Children engage in activities that support language, cognitive, physical, social, and emotional growth; participate in creative movement and gymnastics to build motor skills; and play in safe outdoor spaces with supervised walks to a nearby park. Daily nutritional lunches and snacks are provided. The teaching team is trained and committed to ongoing professional development, working in partnership with families and offering parent support to reinforce learning at home. Kare-A-Lot Riverside observes standard holiday closures and plans to launch after-school and summer programs in 2026. Families seeking a stable, engaging early learning environment will find structured classes that foster curiosity, independence, and school readiness.
