There are some here, here (pay) and here. All from the 1st page of a google search for "sound files of babies." There are probably loads more.

Have you considered recording actual babies?

We're using a classmate's baby for this project but we couldn't get him to babble when we needed it. He never talks when I'm recording. :/

Let me second Ollsen's sugguestion of sounddogs.com. Just search for "baby," "cry", etc... Sounds will set you back about $3-5 a piece, but it's well worth it. Most of their effects are very high quality, and you can preview everything before you buy. It's all legally licensed as well if that's important for your project.
