What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were buried under parent emails that went nowhere, especially mismatched ones for our Spanish immersion curriculum. Their custom lead gen pulled in 15 solid families last quarter—ones actually interested in our bilingual program and ready for in-person tours. Enrollment jumped 28%, and my director team finally breathes easier during flu season with fewer no-shows."
Maria Gonzalez
Director, Little Stars Daycare
"I was skeptical about AI for a small center like ours, but they mapped our exact needs: targeting working parents near the local elementary school who value hands-on learning. In three months, we filled our waitlist for pre-K spots and cut manual follow-ups by half. It's like having an extra enrollment coordinator who never sleeps, especially during back-to-school rushes."
Jamal Thompson
Owner, Bright Beginnings Montessori Preschool
"Generic lead tools ignored our rural location and STEM focus for ages 3-5. AIQ built something that scrapes local Facebook groups and scores based on family profiles interested in robotics workshops. We got 12 new enrollments in the first two months, and the dashboard integrates perfectly with our scheduling app—no more lost leads from parent waitlist inquiries."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this AI lead generation differ from standard marketing software for daycares?
Standard tools often push generic ads that attract tire-kickers, not families ready for your specific programs. We build a custom AI that targets precisely—like parents seeking part-time infant care in your area—by analyzing local data sources. It enriches leads with actionable insights, such as preferred start dates, and integrates directly into your workflow. We've seen centers reduce unqualified inquiries by 50%, focusing efforts on high-potential families. Plus, it's owned by you, avoiding subscription traps that limit customization for education nuances.
What kind of data sources does the system use to find leads for my daycare?
We tailor the sources to your center's profile, pulling from education-focused channels like local parent Facebook groups, school district listings, and community event calendars. The AI scrapes ethically, enriching with public details on family demographics without invasive tracking. For instance, if you specialize in toddler programs, it prioritizes queries from nearby working parents. This ensures leads align with your capacity and curriculum, delivering 2-3x more relevant prospects than broad search ads. We handle compliance to protect child data, giving you confidence in every lead.
How long does it take to see results from the custom lead generation system?
Most centers notice initial leads within the first 2-4 weeks after launch, with meaningful enrollment boosts by month three. We start with a quick discovery to map your needs, build the core in 4-6 weeks, then optimize based on early data. One client, a suburban preschool, filled 8 spots in their first quarter—faster than their previous manual outreach. Factors like your location and marketing tie-ins speed this up. We're hands-on during rollout to ensure smooth integration and quick wins.
Is this solution scalable if my daycare expands to multiple locations?
Absolutely—our systems are designed for growth. We architect with modular AI that adapts to new sites, automatically segmenting leads by location or program type. For example, if you add a satellite center, the engine can route Chicago-area families to your main spot while targeting suburbs for the new one. This prevents overload and maintains personalization. Clients scaling from one to three locations report 35% lead increases without proportional staff hikes. It's built on robust frameworks, so it handles volume spikes during enrollment seasons effortlessly.
How do you ensure the AI respects privacy laws in the education sector?
Privacy is paramount in childcare—we adhere strictly to COPPA, FERPA, and local regulations. The AI processes only public or consented data, anonymizing family details until they engage. No storage of sensitive child info without encryption and your approval. Our builds include audit trails for compliance checks, and we've navigated these for education clients without issues. This means you focus on nurturing leads, not legal worries. If regulations evolve, we update the system proactively to keep your operations secure and trustworthy.
Can the lead generation integrate with my existing enrollment software?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like Procare or brightwheel. The AI pushes enriched leads directly into your system, auto-populating forms with family preferences and follow-up tasks. No more manual entry that leads to errors during busy registration. For a client using Jackrabbit, we synced leads in real-time, cutting setup time from days to hours. If your software has APIs, we're compatible; otherwise, we build secure bridges. This creates a single source of truth, streamlining your path from inquiry to enrolled student.
