How this list was built

Where the data comes from

Every program here is in the Texas child care registry kept by Texas Health and Human Services, Child Care Regulation. The registry covers several levels of regulation, from licensed centers to registered and listed home-based programs, and the "Registration level" column shows which one applies. On this list: 26 Licensed Center, 11 Registered Child-care Home, 3 Licensed Child-care Home, 2 Listed Family Home. We load the registry into the DaycareHub directory and read two fields from each record: the days of operation and the opening and closing times. You can look up any program yourself in the state's Texas Child Care Search.

Who is included

A program is included when its record shows round-the-clock hours (midnight to midnight, or the same opening and closing time), a closing time after midnight, or a closing time of 9 pm or later. Programs without opening and closing times on record (451 of 1,525 in Houston) can't be classified and are left out, so the real number may be higher. Residential operations and child-placing agencies are not daycares and are excluded. School-age programs and camps that the state regulates as child care are included. We show hours as the registry has them, and a few records look like data-entry slips, for example a weekday school with a 6 am closing time, so treat an unusual row as a reason to call.

What we do not know

We do not know prices, open spots or whether a program has changed its hours since it last reported them. Federal rules require states to post monitoring and inspection results for licensed and subsidy-eligible providers online (45 CFR 98.33), so look for a program's inspection history before you visit. Our methodology page explains how the directory is maintained.

What to ask a 24-hour or overnight daycare before you enroll

The registry tells you who reports these hours. It does not tell you how the care works, so ask each program directly:

  • What is the longest single stay you allow, and what is the latest pickup time?
  • Where do children sleep, and who is awake and supervising through the night?
  • How many children and how many adults are there after 9 pm?
  • Is the night rate different, and do I have to reserve in advance?
  • How do you handle dinner, bath and bedtime routines, and what should I pack?
  • Can I see your license and your most recent inspection report?

For a complete tour list, see our guide to questions to ask a daycare. To see every program in the city, not only those with late hours, open all Houston daycares, or see weekend daycare in Houston.

24-hour and overnight daycare in Houston: common questions

How many 24-hour daycares are there in Houston?
21 programs in Houston have round-the-clock hours on record in the Texas child care registry. Another 5 have a closing time after midnight and 16 close between 9 pm and midnight. Call first, because the registry shows what a program reported, not tonight's availability.
What is the difference between 24-hour, overnight and late-evening care on this page?
We sort programs by the hours they report. "24 hours" means the record shows midnight to midnight, or the same opening and closing time such as 6 am to 6 am. "Overnight" means the closing time falls after midnight. "Late evening" means the program closes between 9 pm and midnight. Round-the-clock hours do not tell you how long one child may stay, so ask about the longest stay allowed.
Are 24-hour and overnight daycares in Houston centers or home-based programs?
Of the 42 programs listed here, 26 are centers and 16 are home-based. The table shows the registration level, the hours on record and the capacity of each one, with a link to its registry record.
Are 24-hour and overnight daycares open on weekends too?
29 of the 42 programs on this page also list Saturday in the registry and 19 list Sunday. The "Days and hours" column shows the days each program reported.
