    Infant spots fill first. Ask how long the wait is and whether you can join before your baby is born.

Questions

Questions

How many Orange daycares take infants?

14 Orange daycares take infants, by the Texas record or their own description. A daycare without this tag may still take infants, so ask.

How much does infant daycare cost in Orange?

Full-time infant care in Orange County has a median of $135 a week at a center and $124 at a home daycare (U.S. Department of Labor, 2022). Prices have risen since that survey, so ask each daycare for its current infant rate.

What does a safe-sleep citation mean?

It means a state inspector found a sleep rule not met on a visit, for example a baby put down on their side, a crib with blankets or toys, or babies left without a check. Since October 2023, 17% of visited Texas infant programs had one cited. Open a listing to read its visits, and ask the daycare what it changed.

How young a baby do daycares in Orange take?

The Texas license list we load does not give a starting age, so ask each daycare the youngest age it takes.

Are home daycares an option for infants?

Yes. 6 of the Orange daycares on this list are home daycares. Each listing shows the ages on its Texas record.

Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?

Yes. Each shows its Texas visits and what the state cited, in the state's words where the state publishes them.
