Welcome ~ I offer in-home childcare and I am currently interviewing to fill a part time infant or toddler spot! I only work with one family at a time for a highly personalized experience. I have two girls - newly 6 and newly 4 - who love babies and toddlers! 1-3 days per week is ideal for care as I also homeschool my girls throughout the week. I have offered childcare in this way for the last 4 years and my most recent family started at 4 months and he is moving on to a full time preschool program so my availability is late March/ early April but the start date has some flexibility. We are a Covid cautious family as we have a higher risk member of our household. We keep our bubble very small and this is an important part of finding the right fit for us. When the weather is nice we will still do outings regularly, but we avoid indoor areas and follow all guidelines. Our days include morning snack, lunch and afternoon snack; circle time (seasons/ weather/ letters/ numbers/ songs/ music/ stories/ themes); arts and crafts; basic Spanish; indoor and outdoor play for both structured and free play; story time; spontaneous dance parties and kid yoga; quiet/nap time; a daily report card and more! Pre and post Covid we enjoy memberships to many fun places in Columbus - the zoo, COSI, Ohio History Museum, Franklin Park Conservatory, etc. During Covid we have been exploring the metro parks and finding fun learning and science activities at home and around our neighborhood! I hold a Masters Degree in Education and have over a decade of experience working with kids of all ages as a School Counselor, as a mother of two, and as a caregiver for the last several years. Babies in my care will receive plenty of attention, cuddles, socialization and a variety of sensory experiences. Toddlers will have many opportunities to explore their environment, experiment as the 'tiny scientists' they were born to be, and learn social skills, manners, and language development through themed lessons and self-directed and structured play. The premise of Little Adventures is that learning occurs best through play and when the process is fun, kids develop a lifelong interest in learning. I am located in Sharon Woods/ NE/ southern Westerville, close to both 270 and 71. Little Adventures holds an EIN and is tax deductible. Feel free to message me for more information or to set up a time to check out our space!

I'm a mother of 4 with 6 grandchildren. A former special needs preschool teacher with 35 years of experience and with excellent references. It's my philosophy to provide a warm, loving environment to foster a positive self esteem and confident social skills. I feel it's also my job to prepare children for preschool, as it is tough for children when they first enter large group environment. If you choose to have your child enroll with me, they will be participating in all of these activities: Daily circle time with stories, puppets, finger plays, songs, and rhymes. We do cognitive activities such as math, sorting, matching, sequencing, and simple sciences. Your children will enjoy music and movement with instruments, bean bags, scarves, and streamers. Offering fine motor activities; blocks, puzzles, peg boards, and beads. I provide outdoor activities such as planting seeds in the spring-time while also measuring their growth, sand/water exploration, bubbles, and drawing/painting on the sidewalk. As well as weekly seasonal and Holiday based Art and Craft activities. If you would like to contact me directly my e-mail: homegkids@gmail.com

I have a great group of children that are looking for a new playmate to share smiles, laughter, and fun. I have one full time opening for ages 1 1/2 to 4 years old. I have been providing child care in my home for 35 years. I began by caring for a neighbor's child while I was at home with my own young children. My plan was to enter the work force after the children began kindergarten, but, before they began kindergarten, another family in the neighborhood needed child care. And so began my career in child care. As the years went by, my children went to middle school, high school, and have finished college, and I still have "children at home". I fell into child care by accident, but after all these years, I still find it a fun way to spend each day! I strive to ensure a safe, nurturing, and homelike environment for the children in my care. We have a wonderful playroom for the children. This provides a fun and safe area that is just for the children. Our backyard offers outdoor fun for all! The yard is enclosed with a 6' privacy fence and the play area is mulched with lots of play equipment. There is plenty of grassy area for running and playing. Our home is smoke-free, pet-free, clean and well-organized, while still being welcoming and comfortable. Our day is routine and lightly structured, I keep meals and nap times on a consistent time schedule. During the "school year", we have planned learning activities. Our activities are pre-planned and are included in the monthly newsletter and calendar. I try to keep the learning fun, age-appropriate, and engaging for all ages of the children in our group. I provide the extra attention that home based care provides, along with preschool activities that promote early learning in a much smaller setting. I was registered with Action for Children 1989 through 2016. Sadly this program has been discontinued. My husband and I have been fingerprinted and have background checks with local and federal databases, including the sheriff's office and a background check with Children Services. I have also completed over 200 hours of training in many aspects of caring for young children and the business of home based child care. Come visit Michelle's House!

Hello! I am a mother of 3 boys, one 3 year old and soon-to-be-2 year old twins. My boys enjoy independent play often and working among themselves. All children in my home receive plenty of love and attention from me while developing social skills and relationships with the other children. Activities that we often have are crafts, gardening, imaginative play, school prep, reading and dancing! We have many developmental toys and books for children of all ages, as well as baby equipment on hand. I am comfortable with assisting in potty training, getting and keeping children adhered to a reasonable schedule and homework. From 2005-2009 I worked as a Certified Patient Care Technician. Have had CPR training many times since 2005 but my license does need renewed this year. I have over 13 years of combined experience in elderly and child care. Thanks to my beautiful children, I am comfortable with multiples and am learning more about children with autism. In March, we relocated to the Blacklick Estates area and now live directly beside Dunloe Elementary. Where we used to reside, I had taken care ofchildren for before/after school and during school breaks/holidays. We are a completely non-smoking home. I would love to speak with and learn more about you and your family's needs. Have a great day!

***One full time spot available September 3rd, starting at $70/day*** I offer nanny quality care at a more affordable rate. My goal is to make my house feel like a second home to every child I care for; a home filled with love, attention, and educational stimulation. To accomplish this, I will maintain a limit of three children in my care at a time. We will play with a variety of toys to develop fine and gross motor skills. We will sing songs and listen to music to encourage language skills. We will read lots of books to learn about colors, numbers, letters, rhyming, and rhythm. We will color, paint, and create with our hands to learn about different textures and develop artistic and cognitive abilities. We will play outside every day (weather permitting) to learn about bugs, dirt, weather, plants, and environmental sciences. We will grow vegetables and flowers to learn about basic horticulture and build excitement to eat healthy, nutritious foods. We will explore each child's individual interests to foster a love of learning. But most importantly, I will provide an environment filled with love, security, and independence. I graduated from The Alexandria Nanny School in 2008 with a diploma as a Professional Nanny and a certification as a Newborn Specialist, and I am first aid and CPR certified. Over the past ten years, I have worked professionally as a nanny, caring for children aged newborn through sixteen years old. I have an accidental specialty working with twins after providing care to four sets from four different families. I live on the border of Worthington and Clintonville on a quiet street with a nice yard. The neighborhood is safe and friendly, there are three cute parks within walking distance, and I have a driveway for convenient pickups and drop offs. I have three affectionate cats who love people and are very gentle with children. My house is five minutes from 71 and less than ten minutes from 315. I have one full time position available beginning September 3rd. I am happy to provide my full resume, references, and a letter of recommendation from my current employer. Contact me to schedule a phone interview or an in-home visit. Rates are $70 per day for full time or $80 per day for part time (up to three days per week).

Are you searching for a provider that you can count on, that goes above and beyond? For over 20 years, I have loved being an intricate part in the growth, development and nurturing of many children. Many are still a big part of my family. Working together with the families, we have experienced great success with potty training, walking, talking, transitioning from bottle to cup or no pacifier, fine gross motor skills, learning our numbers, letters, shapes, colors, object recognition along with socialization skills of sharing, caring, kindness and good manners. Our bright and enchanted storybook hollow playroom is full of exciting options to fill our day with fun and learning. I have many references from families (including several teachers) that I have provided care for in the past as well as currently. I am a Mom of 3 children. A daughter, 26, living on her own, a son, 20, who attends Harvard University and my youngest, a son who is about to graduate High School and will be attending Kent State with a goal to study abroad in Paris in 2 years. I live in North Columbus in the Forest Park area between Morse Rd and 161. About 8 minutes from Easton. I live on a very quiet cul de sac.

*One full or part-time spot available in September, 2019* Hi! My name is Rachel, and I've been a nanny for 10 years now. In 2011 I graduated from The English Nanny and Governess School, which is an intensive program focused on early childhood development and education. During my time there, I was certified as a Professional Nanny and an Infant Care Specialist, and I received certifications in Infant Massage and CPR. Other courses included Art & Music appreciation, Children's Literature, Infant & Child Psychology, Health & Nutrition, Creative Play, Communication, Awareness of possible developmental delays and Etiquette & Social Skills. In 2014, I transitioned into providing childcare based from my own home. Because of my background in private nannying it's important to me that I provide the same level of attention, consistency, flexibility and communication that I would provide were I working in your home. I will happily come to your kiddos' birthday parties and meet their grandparents! Send me pictures on the weekends or text me with random, child related questions at odd hours--I love the kids I work with and enjoy becoming invested beyond just the day to day arrangement. I'm a big supporter of child-led learning, positive reinforcement, healthy eating and playing outside as much as possible. I believe in fostering the natural curiosity that every child has by allowing plenty of time to play, explore and be creative at their own pace. I'm well versed in the art of potty training and naps! Because I work primarily with children under 5, I would like not to exceed 4 children in my care at any time so that I'm able to provide the best possible environment and one-on-one attention. My home is geared primarily towards toddlers and infants, but I'm happy to discuss caring for school aged children as well! Full-time rate is $350 per week/$70 per day for up to 50 hours of care M-F. Part-time care is a flat rate of $75 per day, and Drop-In care is $10 per hour. I'm extremely flexible with fluctuating drop off/pick up times. I have cats who are social and child friendly, fenced in front and backyards, and am located on a quiet residential street within walking distance of Iuka Park. I'm happy to answer any questions and share more information about myself and the childcare environment in my home upon request. Thank you for your time and if it seems like my home would be a good fit for your children, I look forward to hearing from you!

FAQs for finding part-time daycares near you in Columbus, OH

Part-time daycare is becoming increasingly accessible and popular among working families. The cost of part-time daycare can vary widely depending on location and the type of center you choose.

Deciding on a part-time daycare near you in Columbus, OH can be a daunting but important task. If you need part-time daycare, there are several factors to keep in mind while searching. Start by narrowing down options on Care.com based on location and rate. From there you can read reviews from other families. It is also wise to consider the program's curriculum, staff qualifications, and the ratio of adults to children for a quality environment.

Additionally, part-time daycare providers typically partner with parents to tailor program goals and objectives to their needs and those of their child's.

When looking for part-time daycare near you in Columbus, OH, it is important to research a facility's qualifications and credentials. Make sure they have a license and that their staff is certified and experienced in child care. It's also a good idea to ask about the staff-to-child ratio, as part-time daycares should be attentive to the children’s needs while they are there. Before you entrust your children with any part-time daycare, look at references from past customers or even observe how the facility operates firsthand. Finally, investigate if the part-time daycare offers activities for your children such as music, art and outdoor recreation so that your children can remain engaged when having fun outside of their home environment.
