What is nursery spot allocation?

Nursery spot allocation refers to the process of assigning spots in a nursery or daycare. Because space is limited and demand is often high, providers use specific criteria to determine how spaces are allocated.
Although it varies by facility, the most common ones are:
 

  • The child’s age
  • The address of the household or their distance from the facility
  • How long a child has been on the waiting list
  • Whether they have a sibling already attending
  • Special circumstances such as medical needs
  • Preferred start term and desired schedule

Some nurseries may also consider whether a member of the child’s family works in a school or other specific sectors.

How does spot allocation work at KidsCare?

At KidsCare, our process is based on fairness and transparency.

First come, first served?

We generally process applications in the order they are received, but additional factors may influence priority.

Are there any priorities (siblings, employees, local residents)?

Children with siblings already enrolled in the structure are usually given preference. For some creches, priority is also given to families who live close to the facility. Employees of companies that have an agreement with a specific creche may also get priority placement.

From application to acceptance: request → review → confirmation → gradual integration

Here’s an overview of the application process:

  1. Contact us through the online form on our website or call KidsCare at 2899 2899-400.
  2. A dedicated KidsCare advisor will handle your pre-registration and will contact you with more details.
  3. You’ll be invited to visit your chosen KidsCare facility, allowing you to see firsthand the high-quality service we offer.
  4. After confirming your interest and if space is available, you’ll be invited to complete your registration.
  5. Once approved, you and your child will be invited to start a gradual integration period.

Average response times

We aim to respond as promptly as possible, usually within one to two weeks. If no spots are available, we’ll offer to add you to our waiting list or encourage you to consider another KidsCare facility.
 

When to apply for a nursery spot?

We recommend that families start the pre-registration process during pregnancy or shortly after birth, especially for high-demand locations.
Keep in mind that availability changes throughout the year, depending on whether children are transitioning to school or changing schedules. Applying early increases your chance of securing a spot at your preferred creche.

What if no spot is available immediately?

If a spot is unavailable, we’ll offer to add you to our active waiting list. The processing team may also suggest other KidsCare locations to improve your opportunities.

How to increase your chances of getting a nursery spot?

Here are some practical tips:

  • Make sure you have all the required documents beforehand, such as a birth certificate, proof of residence, and vaccination records.
  • Consider more than one KidsCare facility, so you can have an alternative if your first choice is full.
  • Begin your search early to ensure you receive the best possible care and education for your child.
