Private Preschool & Daycare Website

Yes. From a simple pre-registration form up to a booking calendar where parents pick a day and time. Most small schools do fine with a form that collects the child's date of birth, the intended start term and contact details, plus a WhatsApp redirect; once you are taking dozens of tour requests a day, a calendar that prevents clashes starts to pay for itself. Requests land in your inbox, not only in a panel.

Not required, and most schools don't — but it is one of the first two things parents look for. The honest trade-off: leave fees out entirely and every call opens with the same question and time spent on parents whose budget was never going to work; publish them and you lose room to negotiate. Most schools we work with land in the middle: a starting band for full and half days, a note that sibling and early-enrolment discounts exist, and a form for the current list.

Yes, but never without written parental consent. A child's photo is personal data and deserves more care than any other asset on the site: consent must be written, must name where the images will appear, and must be withdrawable. In practice we build the gallery's backbone from frames with no children in them — classrooms, the garden, the craft table, the dining room — and keep consented frames in a separate section so any one of them can be pulled when consent is withdrawn.

Not required, but it is one of the splits that pays off most. A parent looking for care for a two-year-old asks about sleep and feeding routines and the adult-to-child ratio; a parent of a five-year-old asks about school readiness, English and the move to primary. Separate pages let each parent find their answer, and let you appear for both 'daycare' and 'preschool' searches — they are different searches.

Demand starts in spring and runs through the summer, so we recommend being live by March; a project started in February or early March makes that comfortably. A presentation site takes one to two weeks if your content is ready, a site with booking and pre-registration two to four. If time is tight we launch first with the pre-registration form and the school introduction, then finish the age-group pages and gallery after go-live.

If WhatsApp groups still work for a single site with three or four classrooms, no — that is the honest answer. But as the classroom count grows, sending the same photo to each group, losing announcements in the scroll and tracking absences across chats becomes real work. Past that point a parent login gathers daily updates, photos, announcements and payment reminders in one place. We decide together based on your class and branch count.
