HISTORY

The Live Oak Child Care Center has been in operation since 1977. It was conceived and constructed by members of its sponsoring agent, The Live Oak Church of the Brethren.

Although our Center is housed inside of The Live Oak Church of the Brethren, we are a secular, non- profit organization restraint from religious teachings
