Child Care Options
The Ohio State University Child Care Program
The university supports families with The Ohio State University Child Care Program, which is fully licensed and a department of the Office of Human Resources. Our program is one of fewer than 10% of early childhood programs nationwide accredited by the prestigious National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
Please be aware that the popularity of this program often results in long wait lists.
