Finding the right childcare
in Hebron & Kirkersville & Patasktala, Ohio

Hebron earned its enduring nickname, the Crossroads of Ohio, when the Ohio and Erie Canal and the National Road converged at the village's center in the 1820s–30s, making it a vital transshipping point for grain, pork, and lumber. Named from the Delaware word meaning "clear or bright water," Pataskala takes its identity from the South Fork of the Licking River that runs through this Licking County community.
