Fill your spots with families who are actually looking.
Post real openings, get real applications. No stale directory listings, no phone tag. Just families searching for a spot that starts when yours does.
Little Scout Marketplace is piloting in Metro Vancouver. You can post from anywhere in BC, but most families browsing today are in the Vancouver area.
How it works for providers
From empty spot to signed-up family, in one place.
1. Post an opening
A 3-minute wizard with a live preview. Set the age group, schedule, start date, and spots. Your listing looks exactly like families will see it before you publish.
2. Applications come to you
Every application lands in one pipeline: new, interviewing, accepted. Triage at a glance instead of digging through email and voicemail.
3. Message families directly
Answer questions, schedule visits, and share next steps without leaving your dashboard. Families see your replies right where they applied.
Built around your day, not another inbox
Everything lives on one dashboard.
Application funnel at a glance
See where every family sits (new, viewed, interviewing, accepted) on one dashboard.
Post in minutes
The opening wizard does the formatting for you, with a live preview as you type.
Name-free child privacy by design
Applications share a child's age and care needs, never a name. Privacy is the default.
Unread-message badges
Never miss a family's question: unread threads are flagged across your dashboard.
See it before you commit
A Little Roots-style demo dashboard is available — sign in to explore the openings wizard, the application pipeline, and messaging for yourself.
