Family Daycare in Bridgeport — FAQ

What is a family daycare vs a daycare center?

A family daycare operates out of a provider's home and typically cares for a small group of children. A daycare center is a larger facility with multiple classrooms and staff. Family daycares offer a home-like environment, smaller groups, and often more flexible schedules. In Fairfield County, family daycares must be licensed and pass regular inspections — ask to see the provider's current license posted in the home.

How many children can a licensed family daycare watch in CT?

Connecticut licenses Family Child Care Homes to care for up to 6 children (including the provider's own children under 13). A Large Family Child Care Home may serve 7-12 children with an approved assistant. All Bridgeport family daycares must be licensed by CT OEC and display their license in the home. Smaller group sizes in family settings often mean more individualized attention for each child.
