Who licenses child care in Delaware?
Delaware Department of Education, Office of Child Care Licensing licenses and inspects child care centers, preschools and home daycares in Delaware. Every profile links to the state record. Licence data on this page was synced in September 2026.
How common are inspection violations at Wilmington daycares?
Violations are common and most are paperwork or maintenance items. Across 356 daycare centers in the Wilmington area, the median center has 7 violations on record in the last three years, and 26 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.
