Why Great Daycares Still Have Open Spots
Parents do a lot of research before trusting anyone with their child. If your center is hard to find or your site doesn't answer basic questions, they move on.

Directories Rank First
Child care directories often appear above local centers for broad searches.
Programs Aren't Clear
Parents can't tell if you take infants or have openings for their child's age.
Trust Signals Missing
Licensing, safety and staff details are hard to find or not listed at all.
Too Few Parent Reviews
Parents rely on other parents. A handful of old reviews won't cut it.

Built around how parents choose child care: nearby, trusted and easy to visit.
