Childcare & preschool in California

Pick your town

This page lists childcare and preschool providers across California, grouped by town, so you can compare options near the places you go each day. Many centers offer infant care, toddler care, preschool programs, and before and after school care, and some build their days around play-based learning, science, and art. You will find providers in towns such as Sacramento, Oakland, and San Francisco, among others. Call ahead to ask about openings, waitlists, and whether meals and snacks are included. Visit in person during a regular session if you can, and look at how staff interact with children and how the space is set up for the age group you need.
