Questions

How many Laurel daycares take infants?
12 Laurel daycares take infants, by the Delaware record or their own description. A daycare without this tag may still take infants, so ask.
How much does infant daycare cost in Laurel?
Full-time infant care in Sussex County has a median of $182 a week at a center and $155 at a home daycare (U.S. Department of Labor, 2022). Prices have risen since that survey, so ask each daycare for its current infant rate.
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. Open a listing to read its visits, and ask the daycare what it changed.

Most often from 6 weeks: of the 12 daycares in Laurel whose state record gives a starting age, 10 take babies from 6 weeks or younger and 11 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. 9 of the Laurel daycares on this list are home daycares. Each listing shows the ages on its Delaware record.
Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?
