Google Search Console Pitfalls & Critical Warnings
Avoid these 3 common validation traps, parser errors, and algorithmic policy penalties when deploying ChildCare schema.
Omitting typicalAgeRange Property
Failing to state age brackets prevents filtering in 'infant care' vs 'after school care' queries.
Declare typicalAgeRange: '6 weeks - 5 years'.
Using School Schema for Infant Daycare
Marking up an infant daycare center as 'School' or 'HighSchool' triggers educational taxonomy mismatch.
Use '@type': 'ChildCare' for early learning and daycare.
Missing Early Drop-Off Hours in openingHours
Failing to document 6:30 AM drop-off times causes parents seeking early morning childcare to overlook the center.
Document exact opens '06:30' in schema.
