Marketing Data Analyst

Playground is working to make excellent child care accessible to all. We’ve built best-in-class software that helps child care providers manage every aspect of their business. Our mission is simple: empower providers to focus on what truly matters — caring for children — while we take care of the rest. From enrollment and billing to family communication and compliance, Playground is the all-in-one platform that makes child care administration effortless.

We’re at an inflection point, scaling rapidly after raising millions in funding, securing statewide partnerships, and expanding to thousands of schools across the country. Our founders were recently named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list, and we’re just getting started.
