Child Care

Child Care:

Child Care assistance is provided to eligible parents to keep Ohio's families engaged in work and training efforts while on the road to self-sufficiency. Child Care is the stabilizing force that contributes to skilled, healthy Ohioans, successful businesses and strong communities.

Subsidized Child Care:

Subsidized Child Care is provided for eligible families to support the parents' work and training efforts. ODJFS develops and issues regulations to govern the program and eligibility is determined by County Departments of Job and Family Services (CDJFS). Child care assistance reimbursements are made available through Pickaway County Department of Job and Family Services and cover partial or full costs for child care services based on the market rate.

Where are Child Care Services Provided?

Child care services are provided to the parent or family of children being cared for in certified homes and licensed centers. Pickaway County Department of Job and Family Services certifies private homes caring for six or fewer children. Child Care centers are licensed by Ohio Department of Job and Family Services.

Who can get child care assistance?

Families whose income is at or below 125 percent of the federal poverty guideline can receive payment for all or part of their monthly child care expenses.
