The Problem

Childcare centers maintain paper waitlists, losing track of priority order, sibling preferences, and when families should be contacted for openings.

The Solution

SheetAPI converts your waitlist into an API. Manage queue positions, apply priority rules, and notify families automatically when spots open.

1

Set Up Your Google Sheet

Create a spreadsheet with columns like: Child ID, Parent Name, Age Group, Wait Since, Priority, Sibling Enrolled, Contacted, Status

2

Connect to SheetAPI.pro

Sign up (takes 10 seconds), authorize Google, and paste your sheet URL. Done.

3

Start Using Your API

Get instant REST API endpoints to create, read, update, and delete your childcare center enrollment waitlist data.
