Questions

Questions about 24-hour daycare

Which daycares near me are open 24 hours?

1,068 daycares list hours around the clock on the state license record: 552 on all seven days, 239 on weekdays only. Call to confirm the hours your family needs.

What is 24-hour daycare?

A daycare licensed to care for children at any hour, including overnight, usually for parents who work night or rotating shifts. Ask how overnight care works: where children sleep, who is awake with them and whether you book nights ahead.

How much does daycare cost?

It varies by county. In the middle US county, full-time preschool-age care at a center has a median of $144 a week (U.S. Department of Labor, 2022). That median covers all centers, so ask each daycare for its rates.

Are these daycares licensed?

Yes. Every listing here comes from a state child care license record.
