Is daycare and preschool the same thing?

Question

Accepted Answer

Daycare and preschools are similar in that they both will look after your child but very different in that a preschool's focus is to educate your child while a daycare's primary purpose is solely to watch and look after your child. Typical hours of operation for both are also different. Preschools are usually half days while daycares operate from early morning to early evening.
