Full Ranking Detail
childcare
Worthington Preschool is a Presbyterian church-based nonprofit serving Worthington since 1965, providing half-day programs for children ages 3 to 5 across five classrooms. The center's defining strength is exceptional staff continuity—teachers average over 10 years of tenure—which supports the warm, family-oriented, play-based approach it offers to over 150 children annually. Flexible scheduling options (2-, 3-, and 4-day programs from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.) accommodate different family needs, and its inclusive founding mission reflects an intentional inter-racial community orientation. The half-day format means it is not suitable for families needing full-time care, and the absence of parent reviews and state quality rating enrollment limits external verification of current operations.
