Questions
Questions
How many Fairfield daycares take infants?
17 Fairfield daycares take infants, by the Connecticut record or their own description. A daycare without this tag may still take infants, so ask.
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 Fairfield take?
Most often from 6 weeks: of the 16 daycares in Fairfield whose state record gives a starting age, 11 take babies from 6 weeks or younger. A daycare's own minimum can be older than its license allows, so ask.
Is there newborn daycare in Fairfield?
11 daycares in Fairfield take babies from 6 weeks or younger by the state record. Ask each one the youngest age it takes now.
Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?
Yes. Each shows its Connecticut visits and what the state cited, in the state's words where the state publishes them.
