When do clubs start offering players spots for the following year? We haven’t heard anything but others have. Thinking that’s not a good sign.

Offers go out to their top picks first, they see who accepts/rejects, then they work their way down the list. If it's a top team then assume most will accept their offers. So yes I'd keep looking. The other thing is if your child was the last spot on the roster it's not a good sign for future playing time. Find a team that's a good fit for him or her with good coaching and plenty of PT. Good luck - it's a stressful time.

Feel free to look but it's not always a terrible sign. My kid got one of the very last offers on her team - after the first couple games she starts and plays the whole game and the team is probably the best in the state and #1 or 2 in their region.
Sometimes coaches are looking for something specific, honestly, you just never know what's going through their heads until they make an offer.

Definitely depends on the club. Some are offering now to keep players some wait for a good chunk of kids until end of May.

At what ages would you expect an offer early in the season? I have a D who will be a U13 in the fall. Will be the first year there is a true "top team" at her age group. We'd hoped she'd be in the running but haven't heard anything.

U13 is when top players start to gather on top teams. Our experience has been that the top players at U13 comprise ~75% of the top players for u16/u17. Some fall off, a few rise up.
My experience also tells me that things change, and players inevitably shuffle.
Don't stress too much at this point. Clubs are likely securing the "Anchor" players right now, and many clubs do indeed ask current players to attend tryouts
