An executive order by Gov. Phil Murphy is going to close daycare centers on April 1 throughout New Jersey unless the daycare will exclusively service children of “essential employees.”
Paperwork must be filed with the state immediately if the daycare is attempting to stay open. The Executive Order 110 reads: “Any ‘child care center,’ including those as defined in this executive order, that fails to timely certify shall be closed to the public as of Wednesday, April 1, 2020, and remain closed through the school closure period.”
