At GLA$$CRIB, our mission is to provide insight and transparency into the true financial cost of child care services, from tuition and fees to other related expenses. Often, these costs are hidden during a process that requires time and emotional investment first, and price disclosure comes second. Parents have a fundamental right to be informed with honest cost and value considerations up front as they navigate a market that has often been outpacing wages. That's where we come in! Our goal is to help parents make informed decisions that prioritize their children's safety, care, and development, while also considering family finances.

GLA$$CRIB is designed to be a conduit for change, starting right here in Central PA. As parents, and consumers of the child care industry, we can collectively counteract the rising costs of child care through this platform. We can't pass legislation; but, what we can do is push the child care market into a more competitive state by removing the opaque walls that hide costs within the sector. By taking a community approach and crowdsourcing information, we can achieve the price transparency in the child care industry that families deserve.

Sounds Great! So Now What?
What We're Building
GLA$$CRIB is currently in its Beta form. Our goal is to provide insight and transparency into the financial cost of child care by gathering and presenting information like daycare tuition, reviews, ratings, and fees from hardworking parents with children at these centers, now or within the past school year. We evaluate, organize, and disseminate this information in an easily digestible way for you.
