Childcare Website Design
Designing professional websites for the early years sector and creating a window into your world.
A strong nursery website design is guaranteed to attract prospective parents and boost your occupancy - don't miss out!
Our digital online behaviour is changing – and parents will almost certainly check out your website when considering childcare before they think about coming for a visit. If you don’t have a website – or if they don’t find it professional or easy to use – they will look elsewhere.
STAND OUT from the competition in your local community, increase your occupancy levels, and let your childcare website do ALL the work!
Show Ofsted You Mean Business With A Secure And Compliant Website
Live And Breathe British Values
We know that Ofsted will look at your website ahead of an inspection. And its essential criteria is to ensure that early years settings adhere to ‘British Values’. Not only should you be promoting British Values within your setting, but also on your website!
Save Valuable Time Before An Inspection
Keeping your website up to date could save you valuable time and hassle during that all-important Ofsted visit countdown. Our Platinum package includes updating content and policies, so your website remains accurate and GDPR compliant.
Achieve Essential Ofsted Criteria
We have years over 20 years experience in childcare website design and are on hand to guide you if you are uncertain how to achieve that essential Ofsted criteria for your website.
Stand Out From Your Competitors
Impress prospective parents with a brand-new professional childcare website design. Our friendly team can turn any idea into reality, whatever your budget or technical experience.
Website Design That Delivers Results
We work with you to ensure your new childcare website not only ticks all your boxes, but parents’ boxes too, so your website starts generating new enquiries 24/7, from the moment it goes live.
Remember, increasing your occupancy by just ONE full-time child placement could mean an additional £14,000 per year for your childcare business – covering the cost of the new website design 10-fold! Can you afford to lose £14,000 a year?

I feel they really listened to what I wanted for the nursery and what we are all about and they really portrayed this in the website they have built. During my OFSTED registration, the inspector commented how the website really matches the nursery and what we propose to give to our families! Thank you Parenta for all your help and continued support."

Website Design Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, we work with single and multi-site settings and can help you with your custom website to promote your business.
We love to speak with our settings to find out more about them and get a good understanding of the site, to begin with we will call to discuss how we can help, discuss your USP (unique selling point) and get to know you more. We will then request you send your logo (in as high resolution as possible, jpeg or png), your latest prospectus/brochure, competitors, and any other information we believe relevant for the first draft. As the build progresses, we will request further information to ensure you are meeting Ofsted’s high standards and are creating a fantastic user experience for visitors.
No, we can provide you with stock images if you prefer, or you can have a mix of both. We do, however, recommend that you supply your own imagery for an authentic insight into your setting for prospective parents.
All our websites are bespoke; we want to ensure we show off your setting’s USP (Unique Selling Point)
All our sites are responsive; this means they will automatically adapt their layout to fit the device they are viewed on which includes tablet and mobile. A responsive design provides the best user experience on any device.
We aim to have your site built within 4 weeks, however, if you require a shorter timescale, we can accommodate this.
Having an online presence for any business is a must, our experienced team will give guidance and advice on how you can appear in local search results, secure brand awareness, increase traffic and help boost your ranking.
Our dedicated website team will ensure you have everything you need displayed on your site ready for an Ofsted inspection and will guide you with this during the build. Remember, Ofsted will often look at your website before visiting so being prepared is crucial.
We look in great detail at Ofsted guidance for both nursery/preschool and childminding settings and ensure we build our websites to be ‘Ofsted ready’. Any changes in legislation are communicated to our existing customers to ensure they are keeping up to date with these and are able to make changes accordingly.
Your day care website should display a variety of information including and not limited to; your unique selling point (USP – what makes you stand out from competitors), useful information for parents/carers, Ofsted crucial information, fantastic user experience, ability to interact with the site, social media links, full contact information and who to contact etc. Our experienced website team will ensure that we help guide you during the build process and ensure you have a fantastic online presence.
Your nursery/pre-school website is an important marketing tool, it should clearly display your setting’s USP (Unique Selling Point), create brand awareness, make a great first impression and have the ability for interaction with both new and existing parents/carers. A great website is guaranteed to increase your occupancy and impress Ofsted when they check your website prior to an inspection!
