Daycare Name Suggestions?!

[Christina72684]

I'm opening my daycare in 4 weeks and still have no name! I don't want the word "kid" in the title because almost all the daycares around me have it and I want to be different. I don't want to spell words wrong, like "Kountry Kids" or "Lil Tots" because I'm an educator and I think teaching children the wrong way to spell just to have a cute name isn't right. I want the name to show that we aren't just babysitting and putting the children in front a television all day, we will be teaching them and letting them learn while having fun at the same time.

So, what are your suggestions? I'd like a cute slogan/tag line to go with the title if you have any suggestions for that as well. Oh, also I'd like something that has a picture that goes with it, i.e. "Little Cubs Daycare" could have a couple of bear cubs playing.

I'd really appreciate any advice! Thank you!

Make sure you can also register the domain name of your daycare. Is KountryKidsDaycare.com or KountryKids.com available?

maybe play off of the name of your street, or last name, or the area you live in.

where i used to live there was

acorns to oaks
cinnamon tree
walnut acres
bright beginnings
"last name" family childcare and learning center
blue cottage childcare (she lives in a blue cottage)

and of course, a ton of the "cutsy" names.....

My old daycare when I lived in Oregon was "Lets Be Friends Daycare". She had a classic Winnie the Pooh and Piglet pic. I thought that was cute. When I picked my name, I used my first name because I didn't expect to have issues with it. Mine is Greta's Little Friends Daycare and I have a picture of children playing. There happens to be a dog with the children in the picture which works well since we have pets too.

Ooh, you're good! I think the first one goes well with the point she made in her post. I love the creativity in this forum!

Childcare names

I thought about the name "Punk'n Patch" but I am always afraid people will think the name is corny or tacky. I want something that will be cute and catchy as well but nothing way out there. I saw a sign of a childcare, "Tiny Hiny's" which is pretty cute

Little Learners and have the L's larger/bolder or have one big L and ittle on the top and earners on the bottom so they share the first letter. Then have ABC and 123 blocks

hello, also make sure it is something your county will let you use...I wanted to use Nic Nac's Daycare and they said I couldnt use nic or nac because they are not words in the dictionary.....we went with Little Bugs Daycare instead....(we couldnt even do Lil bugs...) Good luck I know the name thing drove me nuts!

I don't know if you plan on getting a Yellow Pages ad, but here is something to think about if you do.

My husband,and later my son, picked company names that started with a A. This put them first in the yellow pages listings. No idea if it worked, but they've both been in business a long, long time.
