A clearer first step
Give families one place for availability, contacts, pickups, and care information, with structured answers for staff.
Required child, guardian, emergency, and schedule fields reveal omissions before submission.
Show relevant allergy, waitlist, or returning-family follow-ups only when needed.
Route registrations and tag those needing an availability check, tour, or care conversation.
Fits your intake route
Use a complete application or a lighter availability request.
Collect child, family, schedule, care, pickup, and permission details.
Ask for age, start timing, schedule flexibility, and parent contacts.
Skip repeated family questions while collecting the new child's details.
Reveal only contact, pickup, schedule, permission, or care fields that changed.
Build and share
Describe your intake, review the fields, and publish a link for families.
Name age groups, sessions, start points, required contacts, and staff decisions.
Require essential fields, add permission wording, and conditionally reveal follow-ups.

Child profile
Capture the child's names, birth date, address, proposed start, and age group so staff can compare the request with suitable openings.
Schedule request
Use checkboxes for weekdays and choices for full days, half days, or sessions. Ask which selections are flexible.
Family contacts
Capture each guardian separately with relationship, email, phone, address, and contact preference. Add emergency contacts where required.
Care information
Ask about allergies, diet, accessibility, routines, communication, and learning support. Reveal detailed follow-ups only when relevant.
Pickup arrangements
Record each authorized pickup person's name, relationship, and phone. Put passwords or private restrictions in a conditional section.
Permissions & review
Present photos, walks, outings, and sharing as separate choices. Let parents review answers, type their name, and add the date.

Answers for nursery and preschool teams organizing registration.
It is an intake form guardians complete when requesting a nursery place. It records child details, contacts, attendance, pickups, care information, and permissions so staff can review availability and plan follow-up.
Include the child's name and birth date, start request, schedule, guardian and emergency contacts, pickups, allergies or dietary needs, support notes, and separate permissions. Explain why you request sensitive information.
Yes. Ask whether the family wants to register or join a waitlist. Logic can show a complete registration or a shorter schedule-and-contact path. Clarify the next step without implying that a waitlist request confirms a place.
Start with yes or no, then show a details field when relevant. Explain who reviews the answer and invite direct staff follow-up. Organize family-provided information without presenting medical advice.
Yes. Use weekday checkboxes and choices for full-day, morning, afternoon, or named sessions. Add first-choice and flexible alternatives so staff can filter requests by pattern.
Yes. Create individual choices for photos, walks, outings, directory sharing, and other optional activities. Use your current wording and review the process against requirements that apply to your nursery.
Yes. Makeform is unlimited free for generating, editing, publishing, and collecting responses. The paid tier only removes the Makeform badge. Edit every field before sharing the form.
Responses arrive in Makeform. Notify staff, apply routing tags, and connect Google Sheets, Slack, or Zapier. Use the confirmation to explain whether an availability check, tour, document request, or start discussion comes next.
Make family registration easier to review.
