Daycare Options 

Overview
Daycare centers are primarily aimed at offering care for children while their parents are at work. These centers cater to a wide range of ages, from infants to school-aged kids, focusing on a safe and supervised setting where children can engage in basic play and social activities.

Features
With flexible hours, daycare centers are designed to accommodate the schedules of working parents. They provide basic social activities and some structured routines, though their main objective is reliable child care rather than education.

Age Group
Typically, these centers serve children from a few months old up to around 5-6 years of age.



Pros: Convenient Hours, Covers All Age Groups, Cost-Effective
Cons: Less One-on-One Attention, Varying Quality, Minimal Educational Content

These centers emphasize a structured environment that blends care with early learning.
