What's in this directory
- Day care centers and small day care centers with a NY State OCFS license or registration in force, refreshed daily from the state's open data.
- School-age programs have a directory of their own: school-age programs.
- Home daycares are run from the provider's home, so only the ones that take bookings on PickNBook or list themselves on Google Maps get a page (see home daycares). Look any program up by name with our license lookup.
