What should I look for when choosing a daycare?+

Verify current state license and inspection history. Ask the ratio in your child's specific room (not center average). Ask how long the lead teacher has been there. Request the written sick child policy and full fee schedule. Use our 30-question tour checklist →

How early should I start looking for daycare?+

For infant care, start during pregnancy — quality programs have 3–12 month waitlists. For preschool, start 9–12 months before your desired start date. For Head Start, apply during pregnancy for Early Head Start, and when your child turns 2 for Head Start (ages 3–5).
