Our Weekday Education Ministry is directed by Mrs. Debbie Cantrell, who was the recipient of the 1996-1997 Alabama Conference of Childcare/Human Service Award.
Locust Grove’s daycare is non-profit, licensed and Alabama DHR approved for children ages six weeks to 5 years. We open at 6:30 AM and close at 6:00 PM.
We offer a Pre-Kindergarten Program for children who will be starting school the following year and a Summer Program for children in kindergarten through 6th grade. Our summer program is filled with trips and activities throughout the summer.
We also offer an After-School Program for kindergarten through 6th grade. We are on the school bus routes from Riverton Elementary and Riverton Intermediate School.

Hi, I was just curious how long the wait list is typically for full time childcare? We are praying to conceive very soon and we are currently searching for daycares in the New Market area to consider.
Hi Annie,
Our waitlist for infants is usually very long. I would suggest you contact our daycare director (Debbie Cantrell) at 256-379-3950 and talk with her about your future needs.
I am currently looking for a daycare/preschool for my almost three and four-year-old. I am interested in how long the waitlist is. My number is 256-804-5995.
Good morning, I am moving to the area and your church was recommended to me for services as well as after school care for my 2nd grader. Can you please get back to me at your earliest convenience regarding availability.
Thank you,

Hi Hannah,
Welcome to the area! I’ve forwarded your inquiry regarding childcare to our daycare director, Debbie Cantrell.
We would love to have you visit Locust Grove on a Sunday or Wednesday as well. We have an excellent children’s ministry that your 2nd grader would enjoy as well as worship and lifegroups for adults. Lifegroups begin at 9:15 am on Sundays and worship is at 10:30 AM.
If you are already here, I’d encourage you to bring your 2nd grader to Vacation Bible School on May 30 & 31. You can register online at https://vbspro.events/p/locustgrove2024.
Please contact our daycare director, Deborah Cantrell, for information regarding the waitlist for specific classrooms. You can reach her by phone at 256-379-3950 or email at weekdayed@locustgrove.com
