Questions

Questions

How many Bridgeport daycares take infants?

What does a safe-sleep citation mean?

It means a state inspector found a sleep rule not met on a visit, for example a baby put down on their side, a crib with blankets or toys, or babies left without a check. Since October 2023, 45% of visited Connecticut infant programs had one cited. Open a listing to read its visits, and ask the daycare what it changed.

How young a baby do daycares in Bridgeport take?

Most often from 6 weeks: of the 34 daycares in Bridgeport whose state record gives a starting age, 33 take babies from 6 weeks or younger and 34 from 3 months or younger. A daycare's own minimum can be older than its license allows, so ask.

Are home daycares an option for infants?

Yes. 4 of the Bridgeport daycares on this list are home daycares. Each listing shows the ages on its Connecticut record.

Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?
