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

    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 Virginia is on the listing's state record.

  4. 4

    Feeding and the daily log

Questions

Questions

How many Chesterfield daycares take infants?

14 Chesterfield daycares take infants, by the Virginia 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, 23% of visited Virginia 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 Chesterfield take?

Most often from 4 weeks: of the 14 daycares in Chesterfield whose state record gives a starting age, 12 take babies from 6 weeks or younger and 14 from 3 months or younger. A daycare's own minimum can be older than its license allows, so ask.

Is there newborn daycare in Chesterfield?

Are home daycares an option for infants?

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

Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?
