All licensed daycare facilities in Wisconsin are listed in our directory. You can also verify a facility's license status through Wisconsin'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 Wisconsin, consider:
  • Licensing status and inspection history
  • Staff-to-child ratios (Wisconsin sets minimum requirements by age group)
