Question 1

What types of childcare facilities are listed?

Accepted Answer

Three types of licensed childcare appear here: day care centers (larger facilities with multiple staff), day care homes (small home-based care for up to 12 children), and group day care homes (home-based care for up to 16 children with an assistant). All are licensed and inspected by the state.

Question 2

How are childcare facilities licensed and inspected?

Accepted Answer

Each state's licensing agency inspects and licenses childcare facilities. Inspections cover health and safety standards, staff qualifications, child-to-staff ratios, and facility conditions. Inspection reports are public record.

Question 3

Why does this page show providers outside my town?

Accepted Answer

The search includes providers within a 10-mile radius because many families use childcare near their workplace or along their commute, not just in their home town. You can filter by distance to focus on closer options.
