Before you enroll

Choosing infant care in Canton

  1. 1

    Ask about the waitlist

    Infant spots fill first. Ask how long the wait is and whether you can join before your baby is born.

  2. 2

    How many babies each caregiver has

    Ask how many infants one caregiver looks after and whether the same caregiver is there each day.

  3. 3

    Safe sleep

    Ask where babies nap. Any sleep rule cited by Georgia is on the listing's state record.

  4. 4

    Feeding and the daily log

    Ask how bottles and breast milk are handled, and how you hear about feeds, naps and diapers.

Questions

Questions

How many Canton daycares take infants?

23 Canton daycares take infants, by the Georgia record or their own description. A daycare without this tag may still take infants, so ask.

How much does infant daycare cost in Canton?

Full-time infant care in Cherokee County has a median of $205 a week at a center and $163 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. Since October 2023, 31% of visited Georgia 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 Canton take?

The Georgia license list we load does not give a starting age, so ask each daycare the youngest age it takes.

Are home daycares an option for infants?

Yes. 5 of the Canton daycares on this list are home daycares. Each listing shows the ages on its Georgia record.

Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?

Yes. Each shows its Georgia visits and what the state cited, in the state's words where the state publishes them.
