Here are the companies a US center or preschool can actually hire, each read on its own website.
It sits under our child care marketing agency guide, written for owners and directors deciding where to spend, not for parents choosing care.
How these child care marketing companies were picked
Every company here states a child care focus on its own site, and that was the bar for inclusion.
Services, prices and contract terms were read on each company's own pages in October 2026, quotes are the companies' own words, and where one company's pages disagree the entry says so.
The order is fit for a typical independent center: closest model first, then child-care-only firms, coaching, then budget options, a judgment rather than a quality ranking.
One-channel shopping lives elsewhere: the best daycare SEO companies for search-only shops, the best preschool marketing companies for preschool specialists, the best daycare website design companies for website projects, and how to choose a child care marketing agency for the sales-call questions.

The best daycare marketing companies, ordered by fit
Each entry leads with the center it fits best, so skim for the profile that sounds like your building.
1. More Booked Enrollments
Best for: centers that want conversion testing, local SEO and managed Meta ads run by one person, judged by tours booked and children enrolled.
More Booked Enrollments is a one-person consultancy run by Gabe Meierotto, Director of CRO at LaserAway from 2018 to 2023, where sitewide conversion went from 3% → 11% and the testing program returned a 210x ROI.
That record is his, from med spa booking conversion rather than child care: the work starts on your tour request form and tuition pages, measured by inquiry-to-tour and tour-to-enrollment rates from your CRM or waitlist numbers.
The services are CRO (one controlled test a month), local SEO, or the two together as the main offer, plus managed Meta ads with landing pages Gabe builds; your center pays Meta directly.
Terms: a 6-month minimum on CRO and SEO, 3 months on ads, then month to month, cancel by email with 30 days' notice, and your center keeps its ad account, website and domain.
No Google Ads management, no website builds, no software, no coaching, no guarantees: prices are on the pricing page, plain facts on the fact sheet.
2. ChildcareDM
Best for: operators who want to work directly with a strategist on a flat monthly fee.
ChildcareDM says every engagement is led by Cory Gabel: "You work directly with the strategist. Not an account manager."
Services span Google Ads, Meta campaigns "built for the enrollment funnel", local SEO, and reporting that names "tour rate, enrollment rate."
Pricing is a "flat monthly fee" with "no percentage-of-spend pricing" and "no long-term contracts after the first 90 days," though the amount and ownership terms are not published.
3. BCP Digital Marketing
Best for: centers that want published tier prices and a tested tour request landing page.
BCP Digital Marketing, a Jacksonville, Florida agency that is not child-care-only, publishes three tiers: "Get Found" starting at $1,750/month (Google Business Profile management, one Google Ads campaign), "Fill Seats" at $2,500 (per month) adding a tour request landing page, A/B testing and call tracking, and "Get Ahead" at $3,500/month adding Facebook and Instagram campaigns.
Its prices are management fees only, with ad spend billed separately and paid directly to Google or Meta, and its about page says you will "always own your assets."
4. Childcare Marketing Services
Best for: month-to-month budgets, and Florida centers that want VPK deadlines, School Readiness and Step Up For Students scholarships already named.
Its FAQ says it works "exclusively with childcare businesses" across the US.
Published prices: $797/month for local SEO, $1,497/month for full service including paid ads management, websites from $2,500+ one-time.
Plans are "month-to-month", there are "no contracts", and you can "cancel anytime."
Its site names no company or founder.
5. Grow Your Center
Best for: owners who want one child-care-only vendor covering website, Google Ads, SEO, social media and email.
The homepage says the team is "100% dedicated to childcare" and names "Bruce W. Spurr & Kris Murray" as GYC co-founders.
Prices are not published; its fulfillment policy, last updated September 10, 2025, splits cost into "12 equal monthly installments" and takes "45 days written notice" to cancel.
Its pages differ on results promises: the services page promises "Guaranteed Google Ads Results!" with a money-back line, while the policy page says there is "no implied guarantee of success."
6. Child Care Marketing Group
Best for: multi-site groups that want a large full-service team, from 30-place single sites to 1,000+ place groups per its FAQ.
Child Care Marketing Group now runs the No Joke Childcare and Local Child Care Marketing names: both domains redirect to childcare.marketing.
Its about page says it was founded when two child care business support companies came together under Ben Rolfe and Michael Tasner (CEO).
The pitch is a team of "40 specialists" covering "every marketing discipline," from website design and SEO to Google and Meta ads, social and CRM automation.
Prices are not published; its pages differ on contracts ("We don't do one-off projects" vs its FAQ's one-off or ongoing).
7. First Steps
Best for: centers and K-12 schools wanting a boutique with a deliberately small roster.
The founder is listed as "Jasmine, Founder & Head of Marketing," and the roster cap reads "15 partner schools per year" on the homepage, "no more than 15 organizations at a time" on the about page.
Services include Google and Meta ads, SEO and AEO, websites and landing pages, and CRO aimed at parents who "inquire, tour, and enroll."
Pricing and contract terms are not published: its FAQ asks both, but the answers did not load when checked in October 2026.
8. Childcare Business Growth
Best for: owners who want training first, with a done-for-you option underneath.
Childcare Business Growth says it provides "marketing and business growth solutions to childcare centers, preschools, and early education providers worldwide."
The training track is a DIY video kit, including how to set up a Facebook ad yourself.
The done-for-you track covers a website, follow-up systems, copy, paid ads management, enrollment campaigns, CRM setup and strategy calls.
Prices are not published; its form asks ad spend in bands from "Less than $1,000 per month" to "$5,000+ per month," and it runs CBG Live, a 2026 Fort Lauderdale event.
9. ChildCareClicks
Best for: centers that want month-to-month, social-led marketing with no setup fees.
ChildCareClicks, a Toronto company, says "We generate exclusive, top-tier leads for daycares of all sizes."
Services include websites, SEO, social ads, Google Ads, Google Local Services Ads, reviews and listings, in Infant, Toddler and Primary packages shown without prices.
Its FAQ says there are "no setup fees at all," and it works "on a month to month basis."
The site promises results in the first 30 days or your money back: the company's own claim.
10. Kidnection
Best for: the smallest budgets that need a website, CRM basics and booking in one package.
Kidnection says it provides "comprehensive marketing solutions for both childcare centers and businesses across various industries," so it is not child-care-only.
Published packages: Essentials at $1,000 setup plus $250/month (templated website, on-page SEO), Growth at $750/month (adding a 4-page custom website and Facebook Ads), Premium at $1,500/month (adding Google Ads and TikTok Ads management).
How ad spend is handled, whether the setup fee applies beyond Essentials, and the contract terms are not stated.
11. The Child Care Success Company
Best for: owners who want coaching and courses, not a vendor who runs the work.
It is a coaching business, not an agency: nothing on the pages read offers to run ads or build websites, and the program is "Designed Exclusively For Child Care Business Owners & Leaders."
Its products: the Child Care Success Academy, courses such as Enrollment Boot Camp, a podcast, a book for $5.95 shipping and handling, and an annual summit.
Coaching prices are not published, and the Enrollment Boot Camp page showed several different prices on the same page when checked in October 2026.
12. ParentSeek
Best for: DIY directors who want the cheapest structured learning on this page.
ParentSeek, now landing on childcaremarketing.com, sells a training membership: weekly marketing emails and a Learning Center with "more than 150 tips, tutorials, and strategies" for "$14.99 a month."
Nothing in the membership runs a campaign for you.
13. Montessori Marketing Strategies by WSI Connect
Best for: Montessori schools that want a specialist microsite aimed only at them.
WSI Connect, part of the WSI digital marketing franchise network, built the microsite to share its experience helping Montessori schools, listing web design, social media, PPC, SEO and reputation management.
Pricing, contract and ownership terms are not published.
To market your school yourself instead, start with our Montessori school marketing guide.
14. 215 Marketing
Best for: centers whose main gap is CRM setup and automated inquiry follow-up.
215 Marketing is a multi-industry agency (websites, HubSpot CRM, AI tools) whose child care page lists local SEO and Google Business Profile optimization, paid campaigns targeting parents (platforms not named), CRM setup and automation for follow-up and enrollment reminders, automated tour scheduling, and lead, tour and enrollment dashboards.
Pricing, contract and ownership terms are not published, and the testimonials on that page come from non-child-care businesses.
15. theStacc
Best for: centers that want an SEO content subscription and no paid ads.
theStacc sells "from $749 fully managed, month to month," describing "30+ pages a month, published for you," across SEO content, website, Google listing and social posting.
Ownership terms are not published, and the company publishes a roundup of daycare and preschool marketing agencies where it ranks itself first with its own scores.
16. Always Do Better LLC
Best for: the tightest budgets that want a basic site, some SEO and lead capture without a contract.
Its daycare page sells website, SEO and AI lead capture, and advises on Facebook boosting and Google Ads without selling managed Meta ads there.
The published line is "from $249/mo, month-to-month, with a free working demo in 48 hours and full ownership of your site and leads," and a $597/mo plan adds the monthly SEO content engine and lead attribution.
Questions to ask before you sign any of them
Most have answers in writing on each company's site, which is exactly why to ask them.
- What cancelling takes: published answers range from 45 days' written notice (Grow Your Center) to plain month to month (Childcare Marketing Services, ChildCareClicks, Always Do Better).
- Who owns what if we stop: the ad account, website, domain, Google Business Profile, analytics, and every landing page and report.
- Who holds the Google Business Profile: Google requires third parties managing a profile to notify the owner and get consent before submitting certain URLs, such as service menus (as of October 2026), and keeps separate policies for agencies; keeping primary ownership and adding the agency as a manager is a recommendation, not a Google rule.
- What the fee excludes: BCP states its tier prices are management fees only, with ad spend paid directly to Google or Meta, and several others never say how spend is handled.
- How results get measured: whether the work is judged by booked tours and enrolled children from your CRM or waitlist numbers, not form fills.
- Whether a ranking promise is theirs to make: Google says there is no way to request or pay for a better local ranking, and paid results above map listings are ads, not organic placement (checked October 2026).
Where More Booked Enrollments fits in this list
More Booked Enrollments is one person doing CRO, local SEO and managed Meta ads for centers and preschools.
The work happens on the website and landing pages, one controlled test a month, judged by tours booked and children enrolled rather than form fills.
It is not a full-service agency: no Google Ads, website builds, enrollment software, front-desk staffing, coaching or guarantees.
If that is the wrong shape, two entries have deeper comparisons here: Grow Your Center alternatives and ChildcareDM alternatives.
The fact sheet puts our services, prices and terms on one page, and the free audit returns a prioritized plan within 3 business days, no call required.
Buy for the gap you have: a leaking tour form needs testing, an invisible map listing needs local SEO, and an empty infant room needs ads pointed at a page that converts.
Frequently asked questions
How much do child care marketing companies charge?
As of October 2026, the published prices on this page run from $14.99 a month (a training membership) to $3,500 a month (the highest published management tier), and several companies publish no prices at all. More Booked Enrollments' prices are on the pricing page.
Do any child care marketing companies guarantee enrollments?
Some publish results or money-back guarantees on their own sites, but Google's own help page on local ranking says there is no way to request or pay for a better local ranking, and enrollments depend on your tours and follow-up, so treat any results promise as the seller's own claim.
Should my center keep ownership of its Google Business Profile?
Google requires third parties managing a profile to notify the owner and get consent before submitting certain URLs, such as service menus, and it keeps separate policies for agencies managing profiles (as of October 2026). A common-sense setup, a recommendation rather than a Google rule, is to keep primary ownership and add the agency as a manager.
What is the difference between a child care marketing agency and a coach?
An agency runs the work: ads, pages, tests, reports. A coach or course teaches you or a staffer to run it, which is why the coaching and training entries on this page are labelled as such.
Is More Booked Enrollments a fit for my center?
It is the wrong fit if you want Google Ads management, a website build, enrollment software, coaching or a full-service team: it is one person doing conversion tests, local SEO and managed Meta ads. If that is the shape you want, the free audit is the starting point.
