If I could give less than one star I would. Do not waste your time enrolling your child here. The vpk program is severely lacking. I moved my child two months after he started. The supervision is inadequate, the teachers will lay the blame with your child if an incident occurs and they were not watching. Nothing is their fault. Academically my child was not where he should be and my child after switching schools is now going into the gifted program in kindergarten. The teachers were disgruntled and clearly unhappy with their jobs and took it out on the kids. On several occasions I overheard complaints about having to come to work and is it noon yet when it was only 830 in the morning and they were just walking in the door. Don't waste your time.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
