Daycares: why your Google profile matters.
Parents look for child care close to home or work and read everything before they call. A Google Business Profile with current hours, real photos of the rooms and a recent update is often their first impression.
Asked by daycares and child care centers.
What should a daycare post on social media?
Openings by room, tour and enrollment dates, the week's activities, teacher introductions, and closures. Show the rooms and the work rather than children's faces unless you have written permission from parents.
Can we post photos of the children?
Only with written consent from each child's parent or guardian, and in line with your licensing rules. Spica Post publishes what you approve; getting consent is your responsibility. Photos of activities, artwork and rooms need no faces.
Which social media is best for a child care center?
Facebook and Google Business Profile. Parents search nearby on Google and ask for recommendations in local Facebook groups. Instagram suits activity photos.
Can I post a closure quickly?
Yes. Message your assistant with the closure, approve the draft, and it is published to every account straight away.
Look after the kids. We'll handle the posting.
