What is the question parents will not ask out loud?
Whether their child will be safe with you. License, ratios, staff screening, security and emergency procedures answer it. Put them on the page rather than in a folder at the front desk.

Web Design for Childcare Centers and Preschools
A parent leaving a nine-month-old with strangers for the first time needs to know your license is current, your ratios are real, and your doors lock. I build childcare and preschool websites for Hagerstown and the four-state area that answer the safety questions before they are asked, publish the rates, and let a parent get on the waitlist at midnight when the worry is loudest.
The job
Childcare Websites That Answer the Safety Question First
Everything in childcare marketing sits on top of one question the parent will not say out loud: will my child be safe with you. License, ratios, staff screening, security, and what happens in an emergency. Answer it directly and the rest of the decision gets easy.
What the site has to do
Preschool Website Design Built on Trust and Enrollment
01
License, Ratios, and Staff Screening
State license number, teacher-to-child ratios by age group, background checks, CPR certification, security procedures. Put it on the page, not in a folder at the front desk.
02
Rates and Schedules, Published
Weekly rate by age group, full-time and part-time, drop-in, what is included, subsidy programs accepted. Parents are budgeting to the dollar and will not call to ask.
03
A Day in the Life, Age by Age
Infant, toddler, preschool, pre-K, before and after school. Daily schedule, curriculum, meals, naps, outdoor time. This is what a parent is actually trying to picture.
04
Waitlist and Tour Signup Online
Good centers are full and the waitlist is the product. Let a parent join it and schedule a tour without waiting for business hours.

Questions
Childcare Website Questions
Should rates be on the site?
Yes — weekly rate by age group, full-time and part-time, what is included, and which subsidy programs you accept. Parents are budgeting to the dollar and most will not call to ask.
What content do parents actually read?
The daily schedule, age by age. Infant, toddler, preschool, pre-K, before and after school — meals, naps, outdoor time, curriculum. That is what a parent is trying to picture.
Can parents join a waitlist online?
They should be able to, at any hour. Good centers are full, the waitlist is effectively the product, and asking parents to call during business hours loses people.
Do you build for in-home providers too?
Yes, and the same principles apply at a smaller scale. Tell me about your program.
