Five Sims 4 Daycare Mods You Will Love + A Surprise

1. Tumbling Tots CO. Active Career Mod – ITSKATATO

It is our pleasure to introduce you to the “Tumbling Tots Co” mod, by ITSKATATO. Or in other words, the Sims 4 “Active Daycare Career”! Back in the Sims 3, there was an option to have your sims work at a daycare. We do not know what on earth made the Sims 4 decide not to include that… But it really does not matter now, because we luckily have a mod for it here! So, if you have been wanting the option to have your sims work at a daycare this is the mod for you.

Now, the “Daycare Teacher Career” works like any other Get-to-Work career. Meaning, you get an option to follow your sim to work, but this time to a daycare venue type. Indeed, this mod comes with its very own daycare venue and venue type. So, your sims can go to work there, and other sims may also come to visit! Note that to follow your sims to work you need to place down a daycare venue. This career also comes with 10 different levels, so your sims get to work their way up in rank!

Furthermore, you will need the expansion pack “Get to work”, and the stuff pack “Toddler stuff” for this mod to work. Following this, you will have to install the “Venu changes” mod by ZERBU, which is needed for the venue type to show up. Lastly, you will need the “Toodles Can: Listen To Group Stories Mod”.

2. Home-based Sims 4 Daycare Mod – WICKED PIXXEL

Daycare Providers: Care of the Child

Welcome to the “Home-based Daycare” mod. Which adds a daycare event, a trait, and new social interactions! With this mod, your sims can make money with a home-based daycare. However, before that happens, your sim will have to network with these toddlers and invite them to the event! Meaning, this mod works on any residential lot. To start, you will add the daycare owner trait to your sim. This will give you 16 new social interactions. Some of which, provide various buffs.

Now, we bet you are wondering how this mod works. So, let us explain it a bit more… To spawn toddlers and children to your home-based daycare, you need to “plan a social event”. Here, you need to select “home-based daycare”, pick your sim as the owner, and add up to 4 toddlers, and 4 children altogether. Once your event has started, your children will appear. Here, your work will begin with cooking, cleaning, feeding, reading, and such.

We really love the idea of having our own home-based daycare, and we know you will too. So, let us all just get into this new career, shall we? Come on and download this incredible mod now!

3. Live In Daycare – LITTLEMSSAM´S

If you liked the idea of having a quality daycare option in your game, but not the part about planning it all, and following your sim to work. Well then, we might have just the right solution for you. Namely, the “Live In Daycare” mod, by LITTLEMSSAM´S. This playful mod allows your sim to open up a daycare which automatically spawns 5-8 toddlers right away. Though these toddlers must already exist in the world, besides that you will not have to do a thing. They will just appear like magic – almost like a normal kindergarten.

As soon as your daycare has opened, your kids will stay there for 12 hours, unless you close before that. A huge plus is that you can open your daycare 24/7, so whenever you feel like being surrounded by adorable little toddlers, open the doors and they will be there. Furthermore, there is an optional add-on, which will spawn your daycare with 3-5 more toddlers. That is if you are looking to really fill it up. Additionally, you will get a daily rate of 300 simoleons for each toddler you care for. Sound great right? Now, let’s get to downloading it.

Side note: since we could not find a photo of the “Live In Daycare” by LITTLEMSSAM’S, we added a photo of the “Little Dreamers Daycare” build by BEANSBUILDS. Which is a brilliant CC pack you can use to build a daycare. So, if you want it, get it here!

5. Useful Daycare – PHAERIIA

Are you tired of sending your sim toddlers to daycare, only to have them return in a lousy mood – which you then have to deal with… Yeah? Us too. Well, this is the exact reason PHAERIIA developed the “Useful Daycare” mod. To avoid the utterly useless daycare provided by the Sims 4 as it is today, we introduce the updated version! Now, this tiny little mod will fill all of your toddlers’ needs besides sleep, while they are at daycare. Meaning, you still send them to the regular Sims 4 daycare, but this time they return home less cranky, and more bearable.

Though this mod really is a simple fix to a little annoyance in the game, it really does the job. We know for a fact, that a lot of simmers have been complaining about having their toddlers return home cranky after daycare. But with this mod that will no longer be an issue. So, even though this is nothing fancy, and really is the bare minimum we need in the game… We are very grateful to PHAERIIA for making it!

So, if you are simply looking for an easy fix to the existing Sims 4 daycare, then just download this into your mods folder to get your much-needed upgrade! Yes, you are very welcome.
