What Company Says:
The Savvy Source for Parents was an idea conceived by parents, for parents.
After giving birth to her daughter, our founder, Stacey Boyd, quickly realized that there are very few resources to help parents navigate choosing and gaining admission to preschools. So she turned to friends who already had children in preschool and realized that her parent friends were a treasure trove of useful information. Not one to keep the inside scoop to herself, she wondered if there was a way to harness all of the information she had gathered in a format from which other parents could benefit. Stacey talked up the idea with some friends, and over some of her famous goat cheese tarts last spring, a small group met at Stacey’s home to begin making Stacey’s brainchild a reality – and thus The Savvy Source for Parents was born!.

How It Works:
They started with about a half dozen moms in San Francisco and in less than one year, they have spread to 17 cities across the country, with many more cities in the pipeline. They have been able to spread so quickly because thousands of parents have been generous enough to share their experiences with other parents. With the help of leading childhood development experts, they created a survey for school directors to complete. As you will see, the director survey asks directors to provide parents with all sorts of useful tidbits from what “a day in the life” is like at their preschool to how the school handles discipline, to teacher/student ratios, and much more.

They believe that the depth and quantity of parent reviews and the first-hand information from school directors makes this the most informative web site about preschools in the country.
