What to know about childcare in Chesterfield Township

Chesterfield Township's 20 licensed providers lean toward centers, with 12 operating as centers and 8 as home-based programs -- a 60-to-40 split. That tilt means center-based, classroom-style programs make up the majority of local supply, though the township's 8 home-based providers still offer a smaller-scale alternative for families who prefer it. A center-based license in Chesterfield Township generally covers a facility with multiple staff members and separate spaces for different age groups, supporting a more structured, classroom-style day. A home-based license covers care provided out of a caregiver's residence, usually with fewer children and a single primary provider, which can suit families looking for a smaller, more flexible arrangement.

Licensed capacity is reported for all 20 of Chesterfield Township's providers, totaling 828 slots citywide for an average of 41 per provider -- a middle-range figure. Anna Mae Burdi Early Childhood Center is one of the providers included in that total. As with any citywide average, actual provider size varies, so comparing specific listings gives a more accurate picture than the average alone.

It's worth noting that licensed capacity reflects how many children a provider is authorized to serve, not necessarily how many spots are open right now. A larger licensed capacity in Chesterfield Township can mean more overall slots, but availability still depends on enrollment at any given time, so capacity is best used as a planning reference rather than a guarantee of an open spot.

Chesterfield Township's providers are licensed through Michigan's Child Care Licensing Bureau (CCLB), the agency responsible for licensing standards that apply to centers and home-based programs statewide. A CCLB license confirms a provider has met Michigan's baseline requirements to legally operate -- the credential every one of the township's 20 providers is expected to hold. The same CCLB licensing framework covers both centers and home-based providers statewide, setting the administrative and operational standards each must meet to legally serve children. Because the requirements are consistent across formats, a license from CCLB carries the same basic meaning whether it's held by a large center or a single home-based provider.

Because centers make up roughly 60 percent of Chesterfield Township's child care supply, families beginning a search will likely see more center-based listings, but the 8 home-based programs remain a solid option for smaller-group care. Comparing licensed capacity alongside format is a practical way to narrow the search. CloverMap consolidates Chesterfield Township's full roster of licensed providers for that purpose. Rather than researching providers one by one, families can use CloverMap's Chesterfield Township listings to filter by provider type and compare licensed capacity across the roster in one view — a faster way to see how a provider like Anna Mae Burdi Early Childhood Center stacks up against other options in the city.
