The Problem We're Solving

Right now, parents in Edmonton who need a day home or daycare center have one real option: Facebook groups. They post, wait for replies, chase down providers who may already be full, and get zero visibility into real availability.

Day home operators have the same problem from the other side — they fill their spots through word of mouth, Facebook posts, and maintaining spreadsheets of families who might be interested "someday."

There's no single place where you can see what's available, where it is, and whether it fits your child's needs — right now, today.

What TinyCare Connect Is

A simple, community-driven platform that connects parents with day homes and licensed daycare centers across Edmonton and the surrounding area. Providers create a profile, set their availability, and appear on a live map. Parents browse, filter, and reach out — no middlemen, no commissions, no hidden fees.

We're starting local and growing community by community. Our long-term goal is to become the go-to childcare platform across Alberta.

Our Values

🗺️

Transparency First

Real availability, real rates, real locations. No more guessing games.

🤝

Community Driven

Built by a local parent, for local families. No corporate agenda.

👶

Parents Always Free

Finding care for your child should never cost you money. Full stop.

🔒

Simple & Trustworthy

Clean, honest profiles. No spam, no dark patterns, no nonsense.

What We Are Not

TinyCare Connect is a connection platform. We are not an agency. We do not employ, endorse, or vet providers. We do not conduct background checks. Provider badges on our platform are self-declared by the provider — not verified by us.

We believe parents are capable of doing their own due diligence, just as they would when finding someone through any other channel. Our job is to make that search faster and easier, not to replace your judgment.

The Team

TinyCare Connect was founded in Edmonton, Alberta by a parent who got tired of the Facebook-group-carousel and decided to build something better.

Shaun's note: This section is a placeholder. Add your personal story here — who you are, what motivated you to build this, and why you care about getting childcare right in Edmonton. A personal story builds enormous trust with both parents and providers.
