Daycares customer acquisition is really waitlist management with a marketing engine attached: infant rooms fill differently than preschool rooms, parents tour three centres before deciding, and enrolment worth $200–$2,000 a month per child makes every vacancy expensive. Our Google Ads management drives tour bookings by age group, so the classrooms you need filled are the ones the campaigns target.
Leads run $15–$60 on clicks of $1–$5, and one enrolled child staying two years can be worth tens of thousands in tuition — the strongest retention math in local services. August–September and January bring enrolment surges we build campaigns around, with tour-booking pages that answer licensing, ratios and curriculum questions before the visit. One centre per market, from every region we serve, accounts in your name.

How we’d run your daycares campaigns
For this trade we lead with Google Ads management — backed by call tracking, dedicated landing pages and weekly optimization. These are the services we’d combine:
How the five countries differ
Same trade, different auctions. We adjust bids, budgets and messaging per country — never a copied US campaign with the flag swapped.
- Canada Search behaviour mirrors the US, with bilingual campaigns a must in Québec and pronounced seasonal swings driven by real winters.
- United States The largest and most competitive ad auctions — tight geo-targeting and call tracking separate profitable campaigns from expensive ones.
- Australia Smaller search volumes with strong mobile share; budgets stretch noticeably further outside Sydney and Melbourne.
- New Zealand A compact market where a disciplined campaign can dominate a trade across an entire region quickly.
- United Kingdom Dense local competition and high metro CPCs — landing-page quality and review volume make the difference.
What daycares clients say
“The room-specific campaigns filled our toddler room in five weeks and built an infant waitlist for the first time ever. Tour bookings doubled and the parents arrive pre-sold on our approach.”
“Enrolment enquiries tripled ahead of September and our occupancy is at 97% for the first time in years. Clear reporting, flat pricing, and no contract — exactly what our board needed to see.”
