Home Away From Home Family Child Care

Following the birth of our first son, I "retired" from the medical research field and started a family child care business in our home. I welcome all the day families into our home and our lives. Some of my closest friends now are families I met through my child care business. I love to see how the children have grown and thrived, turning into respectful, successful young people. What I love most about this business is meeting families I probably wouldn't otherwise have met, due to different ages of children, different neighborhoods, churches, etc. I am proud that give parents the opportunity to work without having to worry about their child. I care for children from 6 weeks to 8 years of age, including before and after school care The school bus services Wilson Elementary or Immaculate Heart of Mary My hours are Monday-Thursday 7am-5:30pm. I provide all the paraphernalia for the babies (and babies do need a lot of "stuff!") I provide "normal" formula and baby food, also all "normal" food for the older children. Parents bring a pack of diapers to keep here; all you have to bring each day is your child, no packing a diaper bag every morning. I pay income tax so you can claim the tax credit on your end. We have a large fenced in back yard with play area; a composite wood deck, so no splinters and a driveway for the Cozy Coupes. I have tons of experience which I would love to share with you and your child. I live in Anderson Township, near Juilfs Park. I look forward to hearing from you!

I provide care in my home for families with infants and toddlers. My space is designed to provide comfort and security in a home setting. With a low ratio, young children receive the attention they need. All activities and materials used in the environment have been carefully selected to assist in meeting and mastering developmental milestones. There is more freedom with a home care provider than a traditional child care center. That is why it is a great option for parents of young children who want a more individualized approach to child care. I provide full and part time care, Monday through Friday for infants and toddlers, up to age 3. I look forward to talking with you to see if my family childcare center would be a good fit for your childcare needs.

Hi there. I am the mother of three beautiful girls ages 7, 5, and 2 months and also the wife of my husband of almost 1 year already! I previously provided childcare out of my home for 6 years, along with growing up around it as my mom also provided childcare out of our home when I was younger. I did take a short break due to family circumstances and had to find work outside of my home for a year, but then I was blessed to provide care for a wonderful family of 2 little ones, however a few months ago their mother decided to stay home as well but still uses me on occasion. I was 8 months pregnant at the time and getting ready to move so I decided to take another break until after I had my little one. :) I was not able to select this anywhere but aside from my high school diploma I also have some college education in Early Childcare Development which I obtained through the University of Cincinnati. I finished my class to obtain my CDA certificate however due to an illness in my family at the time I was not able to take the final to obtain the actual certificate but was able to complete the course! So that's a little bit about me in a nutshell. :) Now I am looking to welcome 1-2 little ones (full-time) into my beautiful town home which includes a spacious playroom! I cannot wait to spend my days caring for your little one! I provide tons of stimulating activities to help your little one develop and grow at their rate. Then of course lots of love and cuddle time just like I do with my own girls. I will treat your child as if he/she was one of my own. :) *I do not charge on days that your child may become sick. I also do not charge on vacation time you may take, as long as you give me plenty of notice. *I ask that you provide diapers, wipes, baby food, etc that your baby may need. However, once your child is older I will provide his/her meals and snacks. :) *I also need your permission to travel with your child a couple days a week to pick up and drop off my girls at Mariemont which is about 10 mins from my home. I have a perfect driving record. If this is the care you are searching for please feel free to contact me as I would love to talk to you more about my care! I can provide excellent references from other parents if requested. Thank you & looking forward to meeting!

M Squared Childcare

Hi! My name is Megan and I'm the owner/operator of M Squared Childcare which is located in the Summerside/Eastgate area. Before I get started with the business let me tell you a little bit about myself. First, and most importantly, I have a passion for children. I love watching them grow and learn. I also really enjoy helping them discover new things on a daily basis. Second, I am CPR/First Aid Certified, have a background in Early Childhood Education as well as Nursing, and I'm a member of two nanny associations. I have been babysitting since I was 10 years old. I have worked in childcare as a profession for most of the last 10 years. Prior to opening my home center I was a private nanny to four children for three years. I have experience with Preemies, Newborns, Infants, Toddlers, Preschoolers, School-agers and Multiples. And now a little bit about M Squared. I opened M Squared so that I would be able to provide quality care on a wider scale with a set schedule. That being said, I am open from 7:00am to 5:30pm - earlier or later can be negotiated. I can provide Full-Time, Part-Time and Before/After School care. You will receive a daily "sheet" via a mobile app called BrightWheel - meals, diapers/potty, snacks, naps, etc. I try to make one take home craft per week. We do outings whenever possible - Parks, Zoo, Libraries, Splash Parks, Movies and anything else that sounds fun! We're outside daily (weather permitting of course). If you'd like to know more, feel free to contact me! I look forward to hearing from you!

Ladybugs and Monkeys Day Care

My name is Katie and I am the owner and operator of Ladybug's and Monkey's, a small in home daycare in Kenwood/Indian Hill Ohio. I have been babysitting/nannying since I was 11. I have had 2 full time summer jobs as a nanny and almost 6 years experience with my own 2 girls (6 and 3.5) I try to keep a steady enrollment of 1-2 more children during the day. I like to keep enrollment sizes small so that focus can remain on the kids at all times without anyone getting lost in the shuffle. I have just recently relocated to Cincinnati from Louisville and I am opening up Ladybug's and Monkey's here starting in June 2013. I home schooled my 6 year old for 2 years of preschool and will be starting this summer and fall with my 3.5 year old. This year we will be using the Letter of the Week and curriculum and Kumon workbooks for ages 3-5. For the more advanced 5 year old and all ages beyond beyond we will be using Easy Peasy all in one curriculum and the Summer Bridge Workbook. I like table time and worksheets a lot for learning but really feel that young kids learn best through play and exploration. I am open from 7am-6pm Monday-Friday. I look forward to meeting you and your family and being a part of your child's early years.

I taught school for 10 years before I had my own children. I am the mother to 3 children, ages 24, 22, and 18. Besides my own children, I have cared for infants in the past. I prefer to care for children in my own home. I provide a clean and safe environment. I have new baby equipment so parents would not need to provide those items. Depending on age, I love to read and do fun art activities with the children as well as play and lots of interaction. I prefer only one infant or child at a time and one family at a time but, I would consider a family if they had two children. I just want families to know I am not running a daycare with many children. I love kids but the fewer I have the more time and attention I can give them. If this is a setting you would want for your child or children, please feel free to contact me.

In the past, I have been employed as a nanny and a camp counselor, where I received training in both First Aid and CPR.

FAQs for finding drop-in daycares near you in Fort Thomas, KY

Drop-in daycare near you in Fort Thomas, KY can be a flexible and convenient solution for busy parents who need child care on an as-needed basis. This type of child care gives families the flexibility to drop their children off for just a few hours or for an entire day, depending on their individual needs. This kind of drop-in service can help to reduce stress associated with arranging more traditional, longer-term child care options.

Typically, drop-in daycares cater to children between the ages of 6 weeks and 5 years old, but daycares will vary depending on their facilities and requirements. When reaching out to drop-in daycares in Fort Thomas, KY, be sure to mention the age of your child or children and confirm they accept children in that range.

While drop-in daycares in Fort Thomas, KY may require a short registration process and forms to be filled out, it is usually not necessary to make a reservation ahead of time for each visit. This convenience makes drop-in daycare an ideal option for those with unpredictable schedules or when babysitters aren't available due to illness or other unanticipated events. However, drop-in centers may fill up quickly during peak times, so it's always best to call ahead to ensure the needed availability.

When preparing to drop your child off at drop-in daycare near you in Fort Thomas, KY, it is important to make sure that you are bringing all of the necessary items for a successful and enjoyable experience. Remember to bring any blankets or stuffed animals that may serve as a comfort item -- this may even include pacifiers or sippy cups if necessary.
