All licensed daycare facilities in Virginia are listed in our directory. You can also verify a facility's license status through Virginia's childcare licensing agency. Licensed facilities must meet state standards for safety, health, staff-to-child ratios, and staff qualifications.
When comparing daycare options in Virginia, consider:
