Project overview
The problem

Parents decide in days, not weeks

Childcare enquiries don't wait for office hours, and the centre that replies first - and keeps showing up - wins the spot. Most centres still run enquiries through a shared inbox and a paper waitlist, which means slow replies, missed tours, and spots that sit empty for longer than they should.

KindyHero exists to close that gap for three groups at once: parents who want a quick answer and an easy tour booking, educators who want less desk work, and directors who want occupancy they can actually predict.

Our solution & strategy
How we approached it

Automate the reply, not the relationship

We built a friendly AI layer that replies to enquiries in seconds, day or night, and lets tours book themselves without a staff member picking up the phone. Pre-tour confirmations, day-of reminders, and missed-tour follow-ups run automatically, so no lead goes quiet just because nobody had time to chase it.

Underneath sits a CRM built around how childcare actually works - pipeline stages that read Enquiry → Tour → Offer → Enrolled instead of a generic sales funnel - plus a dashboard with real-time response times, no-show rates, and enrolment trends so directors can see occupancy coming before it happens.

The bet

Centres don't lose enrolments because their program is weak - they lose them to slower replies and dropped follow-up. Speed and consistency turn the same enquiries into filled spots.

The outcome
Where it stands

Less admin, more enrolled

KindyHero is live, giving centres an automated front door: enquiries answered instantly, tours that book themselves, and a pipeline and dashboard directors actually use to run occupancy - so staff spend their time with children, not the inbox.
