What is considered part-time daycare?

Part-time daycare generally refers to any schedule that isn't 5 full days a week. A child would be considered "part-time" if they attended daycare 2 or 3 days a week or if they only stayed for a few hours each day.

Part-Time Daycare Program

Part-time daycare programs provide scheduled child care for fewer than five full days a week or for partial days, offering a flexible solution for families who don’t need full-time care. These programs include structured activities, playtime, and learning opportunities that support early development, while giving children the chance to socialize in a group setting. Part-time daycare is often more cost-effective than full-time care and can be customized to fit a family’s routine, making it a great option for parents with part-time work, shifting schedules, or those looking to ease their child into a more structured environment.

What is considered a part-time daycare?

Part-time daycare means different things to different providers. In some cases it could mean less than 5 full days per week and others define it as half days. Part-time daycare usually refers to any arrangement that is not 8-9 hours a day, Monday through Friday.

Can you do a 3 days a week daycare?

You may be able to find a daycare that has some wiggle room when it comes to schedules. Typically in-home daycares are a bit more flexible and may be able to accommodate a 3 day schedule.
