Part Time Daycare in Houston, TX
Not every family needs care five days a week. Some parents work part time, some work from home a few days, some share care with a grandparent, and some simply want their child to have structured social time before kindergarten.
Our part time schedules are built for exactly that. You pick the days, we hold the spot, and you only pay for the care you actually use.
How part time pricing works
Half days are $30 and full days are $50, with meals and snacks included at both. There is no separate part time premium, so a two-day-a-week family pays for two days.
That transparency matters. A lot of centers quote a weekly rate and then add fees for meals, supplies, and late pickup. We would rather tell you the number and stick to it.
Choosing a schedule that works
Popular arrangements include two or three full days a week, five half days for preschool-age children who need routine before kindergarten, and flexible schedules for parents who work rotating shifts.
Availability depends on the age group, since state ratios limit how many children we can serve in each room. Call and we will tell you honestly what is open right now.
- Two or three full days per week
- Five half days for kindergarten preparation
- Mornings only, with lunch included
- Rotating schedules for shift workers
Your child still gets the full program
Part time children are not visitors. They have the same teacher, the same classroom, the same cubby, and the same friends as everyone else, which is what makes a part time schedule actually work for a young child.
We keep you just as informed as a full time parent, with the same updates on meals, naps, milestones, and how the day went.
Part Time Daycare questions
How much is part time daycare?
Half days are $30 per day and full days are $50 per day, with meals and snacks included. You pay for the days you use, with no part time surcharge.
What counts as a half day?
A half day covers the morning learning blocks and lunch. Call us to confirm exact drop-off and pickup windows for your child's age group.
Can I change my schedule later?
Yes, subject to availability in your child's classroom. Many families start part time and move to full time as work changes, and we will do our best to make it work.
