Childcare management software parents love
Parents want to know their child is safe, fed and happy. With SchoolMatters, they get a notification when their child is checked in, a daily report with photos at the end of the day, and a single place to read notices, sign consent forms and pay fees. Photos are shared only with each child's own guardians — never in a group chat.
Less paperwork for teachers
Teachers log meals, naps and activities in a few taps on a tablet, and the daily report writes itself. Attendance, temperature checks and incident reports are recorded once and kept on file, instead of on clipboards and paper forms.
Kindergarten management system for multi-centre operators
Run several centres with shared programmes and fee structures, centre-specific waitlists, and one dashboard for enrolment, occupancy and outstanding fees across the group.
