Maryland publishes an infant band and a school-age band and no others, so these are not a total capacity and say nothing about toddler or preschool places.

Recent parent reviews

  • We’ve been part of the PlayPlace family for over 3 years now, and couldn’t be more grateful for the love, care and diligence they have shown our family. We moved here from out of state, not knowing a single person. We instantly fell in love with the staff and their dedication to their workplace, coworkers and our children. Our two girls now RUN into daycare and are so excited to see their teachers and friends. Amy and her staff care deeply about our children, their safety and well being and we know we found the best family we could have imagined. PlayPlace is a clean, safe and enriching place that upholds safety standards and protects children at every turn. Playplace is exactly where we want to be!

  • Our daughter started at PlayPlace when she was four and our son at 6 weeks. There are not enough words to describe how wonderful it is! The staff has become a part of our family! There are always activities and crafts for the kids to do and fun field trips. Highly recommend PlayPlace to anyone looking for care!

  • Play place is a wonderful daycare. Our family has been using them since 2007. Two of my stepdaughters and son have attended. My son was even there for his entire first-grade year learning virtually because of COVID. It was a difficult situation, but they made it so much easier. Even after moving to Cecil County, we use them for summer camp. The activities and field trips are engaging and so fun!! Also, no one can beat their hours. They are open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. All the teachers and staff care for the children like they are their own. Now my two grandchildren are receiving their fantastic care. I recommend them all the time to my co workers and anyone else looking for childcare. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to take care of my family!!

  • We’ve had an amazing experience with Playplace America! Our daughter attended there from a young age through 2nd Grade (until we moved). Our son attended from infancy through 4 years old, and even after moving, we continue to bring him back for summer care because of the exceptional staff and nurturing environment. It’s wonderful to see how much he enjoys his time there and how much he’s grown over the years thanks to their care and guidance

  • Play Place America has the most caring staff. They treat all of their children like family and always go above and beyond what you would expect. My children attended many years ago and now my grandchild attends the daycare. They are absolutely the best!

  • PlayPlace is an amazing daycare! It is the only place that I trust with my kids. Amy and the staff are wonderful and know how to make the days fun! My daughter loves going everyday! Never have to worry about them or have had any issues.

Questions parents ask about Playplace America

Is Playplace America a licensed child care provider in Maryland?

Yes. Playplace America holds Maryland licence 1746222471579x873310893916334700, listed as "CONTINUING - FULL" by the Office of Child Care, Maryland State Department of Education in Harford County. The licence is recorded as Continuing - Full, running to November 30, 2026. Confirm current standing with the Office of Child Care before enrolling.

What does Maryland record about Playplace America's standing?

Maryland records Playplace America's status as "In Good Standing". That is a single status field in a snapshot, not a compliance history, and it is not the same as a clean inspection record. Maryland publishes inspection findings separately at checkccmd.org and they are not included here.

How many children is Playplace America licensed for?

Maryland's record lists 22 school-age places for Playplace America. Those are the only two age bands this dataset publishes, so they are not a total capacity and do not describe toddler or preschool places. Ask the provider for its full licensed capacity.

Does Playplace America operate all year?

Maryland records Playplace America as a "Full Year" programme. That is the schedule on the licence record rather than a timetable, so confirm term dates and closures with the provider.

Does this page show inspection results for Playplace America?

No. Maryland inspects licensed child care programmes and publishes the results through Check Child Care Maryland at checkccmd.org. Those reports are not included here, so nothing on this page reflects Playplace America's inspection history either way. This page's record comes from Maryland Family Network's LOCATE service, which carries licence and status data rather than inspection findings.
