ChildCare Connect brings North Carolina families and trusted local providers together in one warm, easy place. Real reviews, verified credentials, neighbors helping neighbors.
Parents spend weeks searching Facebook groups and calling referral lists with no way to compare. Providers struggle to fill spots because families can't find them.
Parents lose evenings and weekends just finding out which providers near them even have openings.
Pricing, availability, and credentials are scattered or hidden. Comparing options is nearly impossible.
Great local providers lose families to word-of-mouth gaps. Without a digital presence, they can't grow.
Filter by city, type of care, age group, price, and availability to find providers near you.
View profiles with photos, credentials, real reviews, and ratings — all in one place.
Message providers, ask questions, and set up visits without leaving the app.
ChildCare Connect started the way most needed things do — with a frustrating search of my own. Like every parent looking for childcare, I had a list of questions I couldn't get answered without booking tour after tour: Is this place reputable? Are they certified? What does it actually cost? Is there a waiting list — and how long? How many kids per teacher? What's their approach? There was no way to know the basics before spending a Saturday somewhere that was never going to be a fit.
I'm Nikieta. I'm the kind of person who wants to validate everything before I trust it — and nothing deserves that more than the people caring for our kids. That's the whole idea behind this site: the essentials about local providers, gathered in one place, so you can compare honestly and reach out only when it feels right. It's also why I personally review every listing before it goes live.
We're opening in Wilmington, Raleigh, and Charlotte — with Greensboro, High Point, and Durham planned next. Join the waitlist and we'll let you know the moment we go live in your city.

Providers share their licensing and credentials when they join, and we review every listing before it goes live. We also encourage families to verify credentials directly — North Carolina publishes every licensed facility's rating and history, and we're building toward integrated background checks as we grow.
