How does Upwards support Home Daycares?

Upwards was founded by a team of educators, preschool owners, and technology innovators in Los Angeles, CA, with over 30+ years of experience in early childhood care.

We strive to empower individuals, especially women, by helping them start and operate their own daycare businesses.

What are the perks of Upwards?

Upwards helps providers run their businesses by assisting with enrollment and finance management, tuition collection, curriculum, and tour management. By offloading more time-consuming tasks, providers can focus more on providing quality care. 


Through the Upwards app, you'll have access to:


What does that look like?

  • Tuition collection - We can process credit card and ACH tuition payments, set up weekly or monthly recurring payments, and provide tuition support to families.
  • Revenue optimization - We help you track your capacity and backup care requests. Additionally, we collaborate with companies throughout the United States.
  • Finance management - We can manage your billing expenses, provide end-of-year tax assistance, and support FSA-dependent care reimbursement questions.
  • Management of government subsidy - We provide assistance to both families and providers. Additionally, we help with monthly reporting and connect with credit facilities to bridge government subsidy reimbursements.
  • Government subsidy support - We can process payments on par with private pay.
  • FSA dependent care support for families - At Upwards, families can use FSA dollars to pay for care instead of reimbursements.


How do we help save time connecting with families?

We help you directly connect with parents to determine if they are a match. From one inbox, you can easily track local jobs, interested families, and upcoming tours.
