    Join Waitlists Early: Tour Scripts, Deposit Math & Nanny Shares
    Jul 10 2026
    In this episode of Daycare Waitlist Ops, we break down the essential first moves for securing infant care before spots vanish. With wait times often stretching six months or longer, early action beats hoping for luck. We cover exactly when to submit applications, scripts for asking the right questions on tours, how nonrefundable deposits actually work, and practical backup plans including nanny shares.

    Key takeaways:
    - Join waitlists as early as eight weeks pregnant once you have a confirmed due date, and confirm each center’s process in advance.
    - Use a focused tour script: state your child’s age and start month, then ask about current list length and how openings are filled.
    - Compare deposit amounts against your budget and clarify whether payments are credited or lost if plans change.
    - Line up trusted backup caregivers and explore nanny-share logistics with clear written agreements on payments and cancellations.
    - Follow up every six weeks, maintain multiple applications, and track progress without extra stress.

    These steps build on each other to reduce overwhelm and improve your odds.
