Before you enroll

Choosing infant care in Fredericksburg

  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 Virginia 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 Fredericksburg daycares take infants?

48 Fredericksburg 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 Fredericksburg take?

Most often from 4 weeks: of the 43 daycares in Fredericksburg whose state record gives a starting age, 35 take babies from 6 weeks or younger and 43 from 3 months or younger. A daycare's own minimum can be older than its license allows, so ask.

Is there newborn daycare in Fredericksburg?

35 daycares in Fredericksburg 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. 15 of the Fredericksburg daycares on this list are home daycares. Each listing shows the ages on its Virginia record.

Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?

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