Search Results Order Updated

We recently updated the process we use to determine what order providers show up in our search results. Providers who have updated their openings more recently will be given priority over those who have not updated their profile recently.

Our goal is to give parents accurate and up-to-date information. Parents are especially interested in whether a provider currently has an opening for the age group the parent needs. By revising our process, parents will now see those providers who are more likely to have a current opening, since their profile was updated recently.

The order in which providers show up still is not a judgement on the quality of care they provide. Determining where to place your child is a personal decision that only each individual parent can make.
