The list of child care providers and preschools preceding this page were verified for accuracy as of January 2018.

If you would like to search for possible additions to the list or if you need information on cost, you can go to the Mass. Dept. of Early Education and Care’s website and search for center-based and/or home-based caregivers by town. Some preschools are not required to be licensed and would not be included in the EEC list.



Information about Child Care

Subsidy Vouchers

Regional offices serving Massachusetts residents can provide free information and referrals to families who are in need of childcare as well as information on the statewide childcare subsidy wait lists. They can also answer specific questions about a home-based or center-based program you are considering to care for your child.

Child care vouchers are available to those who qualify based on income and “activity”. Activity requirements are that parent(s) in the home are working a minimum of 20 hours per week for part-time care or 30 hours per week for full-time care, or they are in school (other than graduate school) for those same hours. Children must be citizens of the U.S. Parents or children with a diagnosed and documented disability or special need may be eligible. Grandparents with custody of their grandchildren are also eligible to apply.

If you are eligible in the general category it can take 12-18 months for your name to move up the list so if you anticipate needing childcare within that time frame you should consider applying now. Vouchers usually have a co-pay amount in addition to the subsidy. When your name comes up on the wait list you will have 8 weeks to meet the activity requirement. To see if you may qualify for financial assistance for child care, before- and after-school care, or summer care, check the income eligibility guidelines:



You can be screened for voucher eligibility over the phone by calling 211, or by filling out your information at .
