Set your schedule and open spots

Your schedule tells parents which care slots you offer, at what hours, on which days, and how many drop-in spots you have.


Open Pricing & Schedule


  • Desktop: in the left sidebar, under Business, click Pricing & Schedule.
  • Phone app: tap More in the bottom tab bar, then Pricing & Schedule.


It has three tabs: Weekly template, Rooms & capacity and Calendar.


Choose your care slots


A slot is a block of care that parents can book, such as Morning, Afternoon or Full Day. These three are on by default. Evening, Saturday and Sunday are also there, but off.


On the Weekly template tab, under Your care slots:


  • Use the switch on a slot to turn it on or off. A slot that is off is hidden from parents, but keeps its hours and prices.
  • To add your own slot, tap + Add slot, enter a Name, pick a Color and tap Create slot.
  • To change a slot's name or color, tap Rename.


Set your weekly hours


Under Weekly hours, each slot that is on has a row, with a column for each day.


  1. To offer a slot on a day, tap + in that day's box, then set the start and end time.
  2. To stop offering a slot on a day, tap ×.
  3. Tap Save hours.


The hours you entered during setup are saved on the Full Day slot.


Close dates and holidays


  1. Open the Calendar tab (or tap Manage calendar).
  2. Tap a date on the calendar. Add a reason if you want (for example, staff training), then tap Add closure.
  3. To reopen a date, tap it again, or tap the remove button next to it under Upcoming closures.


To close all US federal holidays at once, tap + Federal holidays.


Open spots for each day


Your drop-in spots are set for each age group room on the Rooms & capacity tab:


  1. Make sure the age group is switched on.
  2. Under Capacity & open days, tap a day name to open or close that day.
  3. Enter the number of spots for each open day. Copy capacity to all days fills every open day with your base capacity.
  4. Tap Save room.
