Virtual tours for day care centres
Working parents research at night. Be visible then.
Day care decisions are made by working parents in the evening, after their children are asleep, on a phone. A tour is the only thing that lets them properly assess a setting at eleven at night.
- Be assessable at the hour parents actually research
- Show room space, cleanliness and outdoor security
- Reduce show-arounds for a setting with a waiting list
- Build trust before the first phone call
Why it works for this sector
What they are looking for is specific: are the rooms bright and clean, is the outdoor space secure, how much room is there per child, does it look like somewhere a child would be happy. A tour answers all of it without an appointment.
It also reduces the show-arounds your manager runs, which in a setting with a waiting list is time better spent elsewhere.
How big a tour do you need?
Most day care centres need our Medium tier at £825 with extensive outdoor space.
Every tour is priced on scenes, not square footage.
See what each tier includes, or answer five questions and we will size it for you.
Day Care Centres virtual tours - your questions answered
Are children ever in shot?
Never. We shoot outside operating hours or on closure days with no children present. Staff appear only with written consent.
How long does the shoot take?
Two to three hours for a typical setting, comfortably within a weekend or closure-day window.
How much does a day care tour cost?
From £525, or £825 for larger settings with extensive outdoor areas. All prices are plus VAT.
How long does it take from shoot to live?
Between 4 and 10 working days from shoot to live, depending on the size of the job.
What are your payment terms?
A 50% deposit secures your date and is due no later than two weeks before the shoot. 25% is payable once the shoot is complete, and the final 25% on delivery and sign-off, at which point the tour and any photography or video assets are sent to you.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included free within London Zones 1 to 4. Anywhere else is priced by mileage or by mode of transport, and it is set out in your quote before you commit.
Are your prices inclusive of VAT?
All prices are plus VAT. Your written quote always shows the VAT separately, so there are no surprises at invoice.
Who owns the finished tour and images?
We retain copyright of the finished work, and you receive a lifetime licence to use it however you like: your website, listings, social channels, print and advertising.

Book your date
A 50% deposit secures the date, due no later than two weeks before the shoot. Travel is free within London Zones 1 to 4; anywhere else is priced by mileage or transport mode and shown in your quote.
- 032 to 8 hours
Shoot day
Between 2 and 8 hours on site depending on the size of the space, planned around your opening and trading hours. We have shot entire retail estates without costing a single trading hour, so working around you is normal rather than exceptional.

Stitching and post-production
Every panorama is stitched, levelled and colour corrected, then built into a tour that matches the layout of your space. If you have commissioned an enhanced tour, this is where the hotspots, menus and calls to action are added.

Live and signed off
Between 4 and 10 working days from shoot to live, depending on the size of the job. Google tours then go through Google's own quality control, which usually takes 24 to 48 hours. Once you have signed off, the final payment is due and everything is sent over.
