Why FirstNest is different
Honest wait times, not fake-precise dates
Every daycare profile shows a real range (e.g. "8–14 weeks") based on how quickly spots have actually cleared in the past 12 months — with a confidence level. No guessing, no false promises.
Free for parents, always
No hidden fees, no upselling, no spammy lead-gen. Daycares pay for the software; parents browse and apply for free.
Built for Canadian regulations
Every listed daycare is a licensed Canadian centre using FirstNest to manage their waitlist transparently — with provincial staff-ratio compliance built in.
Apply once, hear back fast
A 3-minute application form covers everything daycares need to review and offer you a spot — directly through FirstNest, no phone tag.
