yes - it will come out
have had many messy children myself :)
just pretreat it with some of your liquid dish soap (it has good grease cutters)
don't dilute it in water though pour it directly onto the stain- then rub in in a bit and wash it with the rest of the clothes in the washing machine

Try taking it to a dry cleaners, they have some pretty strong stuff.
However, what I found works on regular grease stains is liquid dish washing detergent. Whenever I have a greasy stain on my clothes, I would put some detergent on it, let it soak for an hour or two (wet it a bit first with hot water) and then I would wash it.
it really works, but I am not sure about this one, try it and you'll see,

Try rubbing baking soda or cornstarch on the stains to absorb the oil then soak them in Dawn dishliquid over night.
Alsoooo www.tide.com has some GREAT laundry advice

My husband spilled oil on his brand new shirt and I put that Extra Strength Spray n Wash on it, not expecting it to come out. It did! Good luck!
