We built the thing we wished existed
Real availability · Real waitlists · Always free for parents
Finding a daycare is supposed to be one of the most important decisions a parent makes. Instead it feels like sending emails into a void, calling numbers that go to voicemail, and joining waitlists you never hear back from.
We got tired of that being the answer.
PeekabooSpots started in Indiana with one simple belief: parents deserve to know what is actually available, not just what exists. Every licensed daycare in the state is on our platform. Every open spot, every waitlist, every estimated wait time — visible, real, and updated by the providers themselves.
❤️ For Parents
You should never have to call twelve daycares on a Tuesday morning hoping someone picks up. PeekabooSpots shows you which daycares near you have open spots right now, lets you join a waitlist in one click, and notifies you the moment something opens up. No account required. Free forever.
📍 For Providers
You are doing the hardest work in America and you deserve better tools. We give every licensed Indiana daycare a free profile, a real waitlist management system, and a direct line to parents who are actively looking. No more phone tag. No more paper lists.
📈 Where We Are Going
The directory is just the beginning. We are building the operating system for childcare in America. Enrollment management, scheduling, parent communications, tuition billing, subsidy processing — everything a daycare needs to run, in one place.
Indiana is where we start. Every licensed daycare, every county, every family that needs care. When we get this right here, we take it everywhere.
Why It Matters
There are 220,000 licensed daycares in the United States. Most of them are still running waitlists on paper, communicating through voicemail, and losing families to providers who were simply easier to find. Meanwhile millions of parents make career decisions, miss job opportunities, and carry daily stress because they cannot get reliable information about childcare availability.
That gap between what parents need and what exists today is exactly the problem we are solving. Not with a list of phone numbers. With real data, real availability, and real tools on both sides of the equation.
🛡️ Built on Trust
Every provider on PeekabooSpots is state licensed. Our Indiana data comes directly from the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration. We show PTQ quality ratings, CCDF subsidy acceptance, age groups served, and licensed capacity.
