Questions
Questions
How many Newark daycares take infants?
98 Newark 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 Newark?
Full-time infant care in New Castle County has a median of $280 a week at a center and $182 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.
How young a baby do daycares in Newark take?
Most often from 6 weeks: of the 97 daycares in Newark whose state record gives a starting age, 84 take babies from 6 weeks or younger and 95 from 3 months or younger. A daycare's own minimum can be older than its license allows, so ask.
Is there newborn daycare in Newark?
84 daycares in Newark take babies from 6 weeks or younger by the state record. Ask each one the youngest age it takes now.
Are home daycares an option for infants?
Yes. 56 of the Newark daycares on this list are home daycares. Each listing shows the ages on its Delaware record.
Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?
Yes. Each shows its Delaware visits and what the state cited, in the state's words where the state publishes them.
