About licensed daycares in Cutler Bay
Cutler Bay is a Miami-Dade town on the southern side of the metro, between Kendall and Homestead along the U.S. 1 corridor. The town was incorporated in 2005 and has grown as families have moved south from denser Miami neighborhoods in search of larger lots and more affordable single-family housing.
Neighborhoods are largely defined by the master-planned residential pods laid out in the 1980s and 1990s, with a smaller strip of older bayfront housing along the Intracoastal. Many parents work in Miami's medical district, at the airport, or in South Dade agriculture. The licensed provider directory includes bilingual accredited centers, faith-based programs across the residential streets, and family day care homes throughout the town.
