Services for Children

We use a multi-generational approach focused on both the child and their family. Read more about our Crisis Nursery approach.

Providence House provides emergency shelter and crisis care to children newborn through twelve-years-old for up to 90 days. We are licensed by the Ohio Department of Children and Families to operate 24/7 and serve up to 20 children at a time on our West Campus in Ohio City, and at our East Campus in Buckeye-Shaker.

Child eating

Each child receives their own bed or crib and personal storage areas and a nutritious diet of three meals a day and two healthy snacks.

At Providence House, children find safety and comfort in a home-like setting. They stay with us from 24 hours up to 90 days until they are safely reunited with their own family or admitted to other long-term care settings. During their stay, children receive free shelter, basic personal necessities, medical care, developmental and educational enrichment, and—most significantly—unconditional love.
