Zukeepr Is Now Live in McKinney, Prosper and Celina
Starting today, families in McKinney, Prosper and Celina can use Zukeepr to find, compare and apply to licensed daycares in one place.
If you've looked for childcare in Collin County lately, you know how it goes. New neighborhoods open faster than new daycares do. Waitlists run long. And the information you need is scattered across websites, phone calls and Facebook groups.
Zukeepr brings it together. You see who has openings, what they offer and what they charge. Then you apply without filling out the same form five times.
For parents: how it works
- Search by city. Pick McKinney, Prosper or Celina and see the daycares listed there.
- Compare. Look at ages served, hours, tuition and openings side by side.
- Apply. Send your application through Zukeepr and track where it stands.
- Stay in the loop. Once your child is enrolled, see daily updates and pay tuition in the same app.
Check any provider yourself. Texas publishes inspection history for every licensed childcare operation. Search a daycare's name on the Texas Health and Human Services Child Care Search before you tour. We'd rather you check than take anyone's word for it, ours included.
For daycare owners: less paperwork, more time with the kids
Zukeepr is built for small and independent daycares first. It takes the admin off your plate so you can get back to the children:
- Roster and enrollment: every child, guardian and start date in one list
- Attendance: check-in and check-out, with a record you can pull later
- Daily logs and photos: meals, naps, incidents and pictures, shared with parents through the day
- Full-time and part-time schedules: set each child's days, so part-time families fit without a workaround
- Custom tuition per child: set the right rate for each family instead of one price for everyone
- Billing that runs itself: monthly tuition invoices and payments through Stripe, with receipts sent automatically
- Staff and reporting: who's working and how the center is running
No website to manage. Your Zukeepr listing is your center's page on the web: photos, hours, ages, tuition and openings, all updated from the same dashboard. No web designer and no hosting bill.
Applications from local families arrive in the same place, so a new enrollment doesn't start with phone tag.
Free to start, fair to grow. The operations tools above are free. Daycare Premium is $11.99 a month and lifts the limits as you add families and locations, and your first month of Premium is free.
We never take a cut of your tuition. The rate you set for each family is the rate you receive. No percentage off the top.
That's a fraction of what most childcare management software charges, and it's built for centers that don't have an office manager to spare.
More on the way, shaped by you
Zukeepr is new, and we're building it with the daycares that use it. A mobile app arrives later this fall, with more tools for owners close behind. Tell us what would save you time. We read every message, and the most-requested ideas go to the top of the list.
Why we started here
McKinney, Prosper and Celina are some of the fastest-growing communities in Texas. Young families keep arriving, and finding care is one of the first problems they hit.
Starting with three neighboring cities lets us work closely with the first daycares and families, fix what they tell us, and get it right before we expand.
