Trusted by 300+ home daycare owners

“I used to spend my weekends catching up on all the money stuff instead of actually relaxing. Now I just log things during the week in a few taps and my weekends are mine again.”

Maria R.

Home daycare owner, Chicago

“Tax time used to stress me out. Now I just download the report and email it to my accountant. Everything is already organized — receipts, deductions, all of it.”

Tamika J.

Home daycare owner, Elgin

“This is the first app that actually gets what it's like to run a home daycare. No confusing features — just my numbers.”

DeShawn W.

Home daycare owner, Joliet

Hidden money. We'll find it.

Every Deduction. Already Sorted.

19 IRS categories tracked automatically

Phone bills, property tax, internet, repairs, licensing fees, cleaning supplies — it all counts. Every expense you log gets sorted into the right deduction category automatically, so nothing slips through the cracks. When tax time comes, your accountant gets everything organized and ready to go.

One Less Thing to Worry About

No credit card required.

You already do enough.

The cooking. The cleaning. The crying kids and the paperwork. DaycareProfit handles the money side — automatically.

“Am I actually making money?”

Your real profit updates automatically every time you log something. No spreadsheets. No formulas. Just the truth.

“I dread tax season every single year.”

By the time April comes, there's nothing to do. Your deductions are sorted, your numbers are ready, and your accountant gets a clean report in one click. No last-minute scramble.

“I feel like I'm leaving money on the table.”

We track all 19 IRS deduction categories automatically — every time you log an expense. Most owners find missed write-offs they didn't even know they had.

“Some nights I wonder if this is even worth it.”

When you can see your real numbers — what you earn, what it costs, what you keep — you stop wondering and start knowing. That peace of mind is what you deserve.

Not built for daycare centers. Not built for franchises.
Built for you.

Why we built this

We grew up relying on home daycares — and we never forgot the women who opened their homes, fed us lunch, and made us feel safe while our parents worked.

DCFS already expects everything from you. So do the parents. So do the kids.

You deserve one thing in your corner that just makes the money side easier — with no extra work, no confusing forms, and no accountant required.

DaycareProfit is a small, dedicated team — not a corporation. We built this specifically for home daycare owners because no one else was going to. Your daycare isn't a franchise. It's your home, your livelihood, and your life's work. We want to make sure it's protected.

If you ever need help or want to talk to a real person — email us at daycareprofit@gmail.com. We read every message.

Questions we hear all the time.

Do I need to know anything about accounting or taxes to use this?

Not at all. You just log what you spent and what you collected. We handle the categorization, the deduction tracking, and the tax organization automatically. Your accountant gets everything ready to go — you don't have to understand any of it.

Is this really free?

Yes. Free to sign up, free to use, no credit card required. We built this for home daycare owners and we want you to actually use it before anything else.

Does it work on my phone?

That's exactly what it was built for. You're not sitting at a desk — you're in your kitchen, at Costco, picking up kids. Log an expense in 30 seconds from wherever you are. Everything works on your phone.

What happens to my data?

It's yours. We store it securely and we never sell it or share it. You can download everything anytime — your expenses, your income, your receipts, your tax report. If you ever want to leave, you take it all with you.

I'm already behind on tracking — can I still start?

Yes and it doesn't matter. Start from today. Log what comes in and what goes out from here forward. Even one month of real data is more than most home daycare owners have ever had. You can always go back and add older entries if you want to.

What's the Monday morning email?

Every Monday at 8 AM — before the kids arrive — you get a short email with your real numbers. How much you collected, how much you spent, your profit for the month so far, and one thing to do that week. No login required. Just open it and know where you stand.

How do I know what I can deduct?

The IRS allows 19 deduction categories for home daycare — way more than most providers realize. We built free guides and calculators that walk you through every one of them, from food and supplies to mileage, rent, utilities, and things most owners miss entirely. Inside the app, every expense you log is automatically sorted into the right category.

Know your real numbers. Keep more of what you earn.
