The moment

A child-care permit is the earliest public record in the life of a center. It lands with the address, the director, the licensed capacity, the ages it may serve, the hours and the programs.

A brand-new center has classrooms to furnish, a playground to put in, a kitchen to stock, cribs, curriculum, cameras, insurance, software, a van and a payroll to run. The Marble Run tracks new permits, keeps the independent centers and sorts them by metro.

Who it's for

  • Playground builders, surfacing and classroom furniture
  • Child-care insurance brokers
  • Curriculum publishers and enrichment vendors
  • Child-care management, billing and check-in software
  • Food service and snack supply
  • Vans, fleet insurance and child-check systems
  • Cameras, access control and background-check services

What you get

  • Child-care centers permitted in your window, independents only
  • Licensed capacity, ages served, hours and programs
  • Initial permits marked apart from full permits
  • The director, and contact details where the record carries them
  • Home daycares, national brands and franchise systems set aside

The outcome

Your playground team knows the seats and the ages before the first call. Your curriculum rep reaches the director in the first six months, while the program is still being built.

Questions buyers ask

What's the difference between an initial and a full permit?
An initial permit runs six months before the full one. A center on an initial permit is new. A full permit in the window usually means the center started months earlier, and the list says which.
Does capacity tell me how many kids attend?
No. It's the licensed maximum. It tells you how big the center can get, which is what sizes an order.
Do you include home daycares?
No. They're counted, and since they're residences they're never written to the list.
