A significant reduction in childcare services is coming to Davis County at the end of the school year. Wigwam Daycare and Preschool has announced plans to cut its enrollment from 145 children down to just 60.
The decision will drastically reduce the number of available daycare spots in the area and will also result in staff reductions at the facility.
For many families, this change could mean scrambling to find alternative childcare options in a county already struggling with limited daycare availability.
Parents and community members have expressed concern over how the reduction will impact working families. The change is expected to create longer waitlists at other daycare centers and potentially increase the cost of childcare across the region.
Wigwam officials have not released specific details about the reasons for the cut, but the change is expected to take effect at the conclusion of the current school year
