Spot alerts for sold-out kids' classes
Call dibs on the next open spot.
City swim lessons and camps fill in the first few minutes. KidDibs watches the classes you missed and texts you the moment someone drops out.

How it works
Pick the class you missed
Search your city's classes and tap the sold-out one, or paste its link from the registration site. Swim lessons, camps, sports, art: anything with a class page.
We check it around the clock
Every few minutes, day and night. Families drop out and cities add sessions at all hours, and we catch it when they do.
You get a text and register
The alert has the link. Tap it and sign up the way you always do. We never touch your city account or your card.

Questions parents ask
- Do you register my kid for me?
- No. You get the alert and you register yourself, so your city login, payment and your child's details stay with you.
- Which classes work?
- Class pages on city, YMCA and swim-school registration sites, including ActiveNet and CivicRec, the systems most cities use. The cities page lists where you can search classes directly. If we can't read your link, we refund you.
- How fast are the alerts?
- Each class is checked every few minutes. Other parents want the same spot, so register as soon as the text lands.
- Is KidDibs part of my city?
- No. KidDibs is an independent service that reads public class pages. It isn't affiliated with any city or registration provider.
