About Cubby
Cubby started in a classroom, not a boardroom.
Melissa Anderson has spent more than 16 years in child care. Mel started as a teacher with preschoolers and two-year-olds, became an owner in 2020, and has since opened two more centers. Together they care for 450 children, with a team of 75 staff.
Mel kept running into the same problem: the software meant to help her centers made the work harder. Families juggled apps. Teachers learned tools that were slow and confusing. Billing lived somewhere else entirely.
Seth Uschuk saw the same thing as a parent at drop-off. Seth is a software engineer who has spent his career building secure systems for healthcare, education and social media, used by more than 18 million people.
Together they built Cubby: one app for the whole center, used in Mel's classrooms every day, and priced so it never costs more just because you grew.
Teachers should spend their time with children, not paperwork.
Easy enough to use on day one, with no long training.
A clear, real-time view of your center leads to better decisions.
No hidden fees and no surprise add-ons. What you see is what you pay.
Your software shouldn't cost more just because you added children.
Families hand you their children; we treat their information with the same care.
