One of the best parts about bringing a baby to Disneyland is that they are free through 2 years old. So you'll want to take advantage of having a baby or 2-year-old in the park. You can expect to move a little slower with a baby or toddler, but you can also experience boundless joy in the simplest experiences.

Yes, in 2026, newborns and all children under the age of 3 are free at Disneyland Resort in California. Disney’s official policy states that children aged 0, 1, and 2 do not require a park admission ticket or a theme park reservation to enter either Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure. This "free" status also extends to other Disney experiences, such as dining at buffet-style restaurants like Goofy's Kitchen, where toddlers can eat for free off an adult's plate. Once a child turns 3, they are required to have a "Child" category ticket (ages 3–9) and a corresponding reservation. For parents traveling with newborns, Disneyland provides exceptionally well-equipped Baby Care Centers in both parks, offering private nursing rooms, changing tables, and a shop with diapers and formula. While the baby enters for free, keep in mind that they must still be included in the guest count for certain Lightning Lane bookings or dining reservations if they require a high chair, so the "cost" is zero but the logistical planning still requires mentioning their presence to Cast Members.
