Attendance

See who's here, right now.

Drop-off and pick-up by room. Color-coded so you can spot who's expected, who's checked in, and who's away at a glance. Daily hours roll up to the monthly invoice automatically.

Incidents

Log it by voice. Get back to the kids.

Hold the mic, say what happened, and Childcare Buddy fills the form. Severity, first aid, parent acknowledgement - all tracked, all kept.

Parents

A portal parents actually want to open.

Today's day, schedule, messages, invoices and field-trip RSVPs. Parents can report absences from the portal - no more 6am phone tag. Each family only ever sees their own child.

Stop paying for software you don't use.

Childcare Buddy is one fair price for everything a small centre needs to run the day. Try it free - if it doesn't feel calmer than what you have now, walk away.
