Our Programs

  • Infants

    Babies are on their own schedule; they are fed when they are hungry, sleep when they are sleepy and are changed whenever needed. Hugging, laughing, and playing are part of everyone’s day. Caregivers in the infant room work with parents to be sure each baby’s schedule is appropriate for that child’s and family’s needs.

  • Toddler And Pre-School Programs

    Pre schoolers and Toddlers are involved in many activities throughout the day including art, stories, blocks, imaginative play, music, numbers, and social play. We encourage children to participate in their own way in all the fun activities.
    We also have a great balance between academic activities for building school readiness and "fun" ! So while the children are singing, dancing and play planned around theme based weekly lessons, we are also reinforcing the skills they need to set them up for academic success.

  • School-Age Programs

    City Kids in Hilliard offers a before and after school program for children attending Hilliard city schools. We provide breakfast and early morning care for kindergarten through 5th grade students where they can relax and talk with friends before school. We also welcome them back after their school day for either lunch (kindergarten) or snack (1st through 5th grade) and fun activities for the remainder of their day. Their classroom provides for activities including computer games, arts and crafts activities, piano, board games, role playing, manipulative and blocks, and group time. We also have an outdoor playground where our school age children have a great time running, climbing, and being active.

  • Summer Program

    Our summer program at City Kids Daycare offers the perfect mix of fun and education. We keep kids engaged with age-appropriate activities like computer programs, educational field trips, reading, puzzles, cooking, and physical activities. While our curriculum provides structure, we also listen to students and parents to ensure we're meeting their needs for a fun, safe, and creative summer. It's like a vacation designed just for kids, right in your own backyard!
