How to add it

How to add a Daycare Enrollment Form to your site.

To add a Daycare Enrollment Form to your site you need three things: a free splitforms access key, the HTML snippet above, and your key pasted into it. No backend, database, or CAPTCHA library — the form posts to one URL and every submission lands in your inbox and dashboard.

Capture child age and start date

Required: child name, date of birth, requested start date, schedule (full-time / part-time / drop-in days). DOB determines classroom; start date determines waitlist position.

Note allergies and medical

Field for allergies, dietary restrictions, IEP/IFSP status, and any medical notes. Centers with peanut-free or gluten-free protocols filter at this point — saves a tour for a misaligned family.

Schedule the tour or waitlist

Auto-respond with current availability — either a tour-booking Calendly link for open classrooms or a transparent waitlist position with realistic timing. Honesty here builds the trust the rest of the relationship runs on.

What's included

What's in this Daycare Enrollment Form template?

Daycares operate under state-mandated child-to-staff ratios (often 1:4 for infants, 1:6 for toddlers, 1:10 for preschool) which cap enrollment exactly. The result is a permanent waitlist culture — quality centers in cities have 6-18 month waitlists for infant rooms. Tuition runs $1,500-3,000/month per child. The form captures child date of birth (which determines which classroom), requested start date (which determines waitlist position), schedule (full-time / part-time / drop-in), and allergies / medical notes. The director's reply quotes a tour slot or a waitlist position — both are real outcomes that the family appreciates over a generic 'we'll be in touch'. Webhooks into Brightwheel / Procare / HiMama · waitlist-aware auto-responses.

How SplitForms works

Questions

Daycare Enrollment Form questions.

View all FAQs
What about COPPA when collecting child data on a public form?

COPPA applies to online services directed at children under 13 — daycare enrollment forms are directed at parents, not children, so they're outside COPPA's primary scope. Still, treat child data carefully: don't collect more than needed (no SSN, no medical detail beyond allergies on the public form), and keep the formal enrollment paperwork on a secure portal.

How do I tier inquiries by classroom / age?

Use the date-of-birth field to auto-route in your webhook — under 12 months goes to the infant room director, 12-24 to toddlers, 2+ to preschool. Each director gets their own queue and waitlist.

Can I integrate with Brightwheel / Procare / HiMama / Lillio?

Yes — webhook the JSON. All four childcare CRMs accept inbound leads via Zapier. Lead lands as a prospective family with child age, start date, and contact info ready for the tour invitation and formal enrollment.

Should I show pricing on the website?

Show the tuition range (e.g. '$1,800-2,400/month depending on classroom and schedule'). Hidden pricing in childcare is read as suspicious — parents budget tightly and need to know upfront. Transparent pricing reduces tour-no-shows by 40%.
