Services · Website development · Childcare websites

Childcare websites that turn Dallas parent searches into booked tours.

Codeeo offers childcare website development in Dallas for licensed child care centers, licensed child care homes, preschools and multi-location operators across Dallas County and the wider Metroplex. We build the site parents find when they search near home or near the office: program pages by age, a tour request that lands in your enrollment inbox, location pages with your Texas operation details, and a CMS your director can edit. Parents shortlist a center online long before they ever visit, so the website is where most enrollments are won or lost.

This is a website project, not a classroom app. It covers presence, search visibility, enquiries and the paperwork parents want to read before they commit, and it connects to whatever enrollment or parent software you already run.

Built for
Licensed child care centers, preschools, licensed homes and center groups in Dallas and nearby Collin and Denton County suburbs.
Typical timeline
Agreed in discovery once page count, content readiness and integrations are known, then written into the plan before design begins.
What you own
The website, its code, the CMS logins, the domain, analytics accounts and every enquiry record, held in your own accounts.

What the site includes

Pages and tools Dallas families use before they call you.

A Dallas parent comparing centers usually has two tabs open: your site and the state's Search Texas Child Care listing, which shows each operation's compliance history. Your website has to answer the questions that listing cannot. What does a day look like in the toddler room? Is there a waitlist for infants? Which way do I come in from the Dallas North Tollway at drop-off? Is the curriculum play based or academic? Can I talk to someone in Spanish?

We plan the site around those questions, in the order parents ask them, and give your director tools to keep the answers current without a developer. The result is fewer repetitive phone calls and better prepared families on tour day.

Explain your project
  • Program pages by age group

    Separate pages for infants, toddlers, twos, preschool, pre-K and after school, each with daily rhythm, teacher to child approach, curriculum notes and what to pack. Parents of a ten month old should never have to scroll past summer camp to find what they need.

    Parents reach the right classroom information in one or two taps.

  • Tour request and enrollment enquiry

    A short form that asks for child age, preferred start date and days needed, then offers tour windows your director has opened. Each request goes to the right campus inbox and to your CRM or enrollment software, with an instant confirmation to the parent.

    Every enquiry has an owner and a follow up date.

  • Location pages for each campus

    One page per site with address, hours of operation, ages served, the operation's license details as you choose to display them, parking and drop-off notes, and a map. Groups with campuses in Lake Highlands, Oak Cliff and Uptown get pages that rank for each neighborhood.

    Each Dallas campus can appear in its own local search results.

  • English and Spanish content

    Many Dallas families read Spanish first. We build a proper Spanish version with its own URLs, translated forms and a language switch that keeps the parent on the same page, rather than a browser translation widget that garbles policy text.

    Spanish speaking parents can enquire without needing a phone call.

  • Parent handbook and policy library

    Your handbook, illness exclusion policy, holiday calendar, menus and supply lists, published as readable pages with downloadable versions. When a policy changes, the director updates one page and every link stays correct.

    Current families stop asking for documents already on file.

  • Waitlist and openings by room

    Infant rooms in Dallas fill months ahead, so parents want to know where they stand. The site shows which programs have openings this term, lets families join a waitlist for a specific room and start month, and sends staff a weekly list sorted by date. Directors change availability from the CMS in seconds when a spot opens.

    Families join the right waitlist instead of calling every week.

  • Subsidy and quality rating information

    If you accept Child Care Services subsidy through Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas or hold a Texas Rising Star rating, a clear page explains what that means for families and how to start. We publish only what you confirm, in plain words.

    Eligible families learn early that your center can serve them.

  • Careers and teacher hiring

    Open roles, benefits, training support and an application form that collects what Texas background check processes will later need, without asking for sensitive numbers on the website itself. Staffing is often the limit on enrollment, so hiring gets its own section.

    Applicants arrive with the details your hiring manager screens for.

  • Photo galleries with consent rules

    Galleries show classrooms, playgrounds and learning materials. The CMS flags any image with a child in it and asks staff to confirm signed photo consent before publishing, and image file data such as location tags is removed on upload.

    No child's photo goes live by accident.

  • Director editing in the CMS

    A simple editor for openings, closures, weather alerts, menus and staff bios. Ice storms close Dallas centers with little warning, so a site wide alert banner can be switched on from a phone in under a minute.

    The site stays accurate without waiting on an agency.

Who this is for

Four kinds of Dallas operators we build for.

Childcare in Dallas ranges from a single licensed home in Pleasant Grove to faith based preschools in Preston Hollow and corporate center groups along the Central Expressway corridor. Each needs a different site. These are the four starting points we see most, and how the build changes for each one. In every case the aim is the same: a parent in a hurry should understand ages served, openings and how to book a tour within a minute of landing on the site.

01

A single center with an outdated site

The site was built years ago, cannot be edited without the original developer, and loads slowly on phones. We rebuild it on a CMS your director controls, keep the URLs that already rank, and add the tour request flow that was missing. Most of the work is content: rewriting program pages so they sound like your teachers, not a template.

Old URLs are mapped and redirected so search rankings carry over.

02

A group with several Dallas area campuses

Campuses in Dallas proper plus Richardson, Plano or Garland need one brand and separate local pages. We set up a location finder, campus level forms routed to each director, and shared content such as curriculum and policies managed once. Head office sees enquiries by campus in one report.

Each campus gets its own Google Business Profile link and local page.

03

A preschool attached to a church or school

Weekday programs run by congregations or private schools often sit on a subpage of the parent organization's site and get lost. We build a dedicated preschool site or section with its own enrollment calendar, registration windows and waitlist, while matching the parent organization's look and governance.

Registration windows and sibling priority can be shown clearly.

04

A licensed home or small program

A smaller operation needs fewer pages, but trust matters even more. We build a focused site that shows your experience, routine, licensing status and openings, with a contact path that protects your home address until you choose to share it with a family.

Your home address does not need to appear publicly.

Six steps from first call to a site Dallas parents trust.

  1. 01Discovery by video callWe review your current site, campuses, programs, enrollment process and the software you use, and agree what the first release must include. Discovery and reviews run by video call.
  2. 02Content and sitemapWe map every page parents need, decide what goes in English and Spanish, and draft program copy with your director so it reflects how your classrooms actually run.
  3. 03Design and prototypesClickable mobile layouts first, because most Dallas parents browse on a phone between work and pickup. You approve structure and look before any build starts.
  4. 04Build and integrationsPages, forms, CMS roles, structured data and connections to your enrollment software, CRM or email platform, built and tested on a private staging site.
  5. 05Accessibility, speed and privacy checksKeyboard and screen reader testing, Core Web Vitals on real devices, consent settings for analytics, and a privacy notice reviewed against the Texas law that applies to you.
  6. 06Launch and handoverRedirects from the old site, search console setup, director training on the CMS, and a short period of fixes after launch while real families use the site.

Technology

What we build this with.

We pick the stack around who will edit the site. WordPress or a headless CMS with Next.js both work well; what matters is a director friendly editor, fast hosting with daily backups, and clean connections to tools like brightwheel, Procare or your CRM. Analytics run behind a consent banner, and form data is stored in systems you control.

Questions Dallas childcare owners ask us.

It depends mostly on content and the number of campuses.

A single center with ready photos and a clear program list moves quickly. A group with several Dallas area campuses, Spanish pages and an enrollment software integration takes longer, because each campus needs its own content and testing. We agree the timeline in discovery, after we know what content exists and which systems are involved, and we write it into the plan before design starts. The biggest delays usually come from waiting on photos with signed consent and on director review of program copy.
