Finding a daycare with live cameras in Wilmington

Whether your center is in Wilmington or nearby Hockessin, Greenville, or Newark, here's what to look for in a daycare that offers live parent viewing:

  • ✓Live parent viewing (not just photos or recorded clips at the end of the day)
  • ✓Video-only streaming — no microphone — to keep audio-consent rules simple
  • ✓Per-child access, so you see only your child's classroom
  • ✓Center-controlled viewing hours, not an always-on public feed
  • ✓Secure logins — never a shareable public camera link

Delaware camera law applies in Wilmington

Delaware does not mandate daycare cameras, but licensed centers using them should disclose to parents. Because Delaware's audio-recording law is split, treat audio as requiring all-party consent and verify before enabling it.

Because Delaware's audio-recording rules are split, video-only systems like CareCam are the safe default — there's no microphone to trigger a consent issue.
