Daycare in Cincinnati
Posted by kevin under Daycare in Cincinnati (edit this)
Welcome to “Daycare in Cincinnati”! I chose this name for the site because I figured that if there was any such thing as Google when I was young enough to be looking for day care, that’s what I would have typed in there to look for it, and I want to provide a resource for parents who are looking for a quality child care provider here in Cincinnati.
As a working parent, you’ve got to find daycare you can be confident in, at a price that won’t break the budget, and ideally, in a place that’s convenient to where you live and work. And it can be a time-consuming process: you’ll probably want to do background checks, get referrals, and visit potential daycare centers before you decide on the one that’s right for your child.
Also, depending on how old your child is, you’ll want to make sure that they get a good early childhood education to help them be prepared for when they go to school, or that they have a good environment to return to after school; a place where they can do their homework, so they’re not up all night after dinner finishing it up.
It’s also important to confirm credentials with the appropriate regulatory agencies, which means you have to know which agencies are actually responsible for daycare licensing here in Cincinnati, which all by itself can be a chore. A rule of thumb is that if the daycare center is in a home or at a business not located in a school or associated with an educational service center, the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services is the licensing agency; if the daycare center is located in a school or associated with an educational service center, it should be licensed by the Ohio Department of Education.
That’s a lot of research!
Which is the reason for this site: to help you short-circuit at least some of that research by recommending select daycare providers in each of Cincinnati’s neighborhoods, to help you narrow down your list.
Be sure to take a look at our section on how to choose a daycare provider for some helpful tips on how to get started, what questions to ask, and what to look for when you settle on a daycare or two that you want to visit.
