	Top Daycare Centers Report Card With so many households having both adults working and placing their bundles of joy in the hands of daycare providers, we here at Northern Virginia Magazine want to help parents make informed choices. We sent over 650 surveys to state licensed daycare centers in the Northern Virginia area asking for information about their staff, curriculum and facilities. The centers on the Top Daycare listing are centers whose staff and facilities go above and beyond both the state’s licensing requirements and the average center in Northern Virginia.
