Several Houston Neighborhoods Offer Great Daycare Programs for Small Children
A great daycare near home can make a world of difference for most parents with young kids. Whether you need part- or full-time daycare, here’s a look at some of the best options in the Greater Houston area, featured by neighborhood.
This Houston daycare guide shares details about tuition costs, based on programs that offer daycare and related programs 5 days a week. Please note that tuition fees are subject to change and may vary by age of the child. Also, some programs offer discounts for multiple children or re-enrollment.
This guide also shares the child-to-care provider ratios (CCPR) and whether each Houston daycare has a waitlist.* While some of these options focus exclusively on daycare for infants and toddlers, others are part of schools and/or churches that may offer programs for older children too.
