Who licenses child care in Delaware?

Across 383 daycare centers in the Wilmington area, the median center has 7 violations on record in the last three years, and 53 centers have none. Delaware records each regulation found out of compliance at a review, with the corrective action required and the date it was corrected. The state does not assign a risk level.
What does daycare cost in Wilmington?
6 programs in the Wilmington area publish full-time tuition on their website. The median starting price is $590 a month, and $1,517 a month for infants. Most programs share tuition only on a tour, so ask for the full fee schedule including registration and supply fees.
Why do home daycares show only a ZIP code?
A licensed home daycare is a private residence. The listing shows the licence, capacity and ZIP code. The provider gives the address to families directly.
When should I join a daycare waitlist in Wilmington?
Infant rooms fill first because the state allows the fewest babies per teacher. Ask each program how long its infant and toddler waitlists run and whether a deposit holds a place. Home daycares often have shorter waits than centers.
Help paying for care
