ChildCare Kiosk

For New York Family and Group Family Daycare

Sign-in, attendance and CAPS attendance export in one place.

Parents sign children in and out on a tablet at your door, with a signature. Staff clock in on the same screen and visitors are logged. Your attendance is ready to export to Excel or PDF, including the month in the CAPS attendance layout. Each child's documents checklist and immunization chart live in the same place.

30-day free trial. Runs in the browser on any tablet, phone or computer — nothing to install.

The child attendance screen: today's date, totals for children present under and over 24 months, and a card for each child showing Signed In, Signed Out or Not Signed In.

What it does

One account covers the front door, the office and the parents.

  • Documents checklist and immunizations

    Every child's and staff member's required papers in one checklist, named with their official form numbers, so you see at a glance what is missing, expired or expiring soon. Each child's vaccines are checked against the required doses for their age, with what is due and when.

  • Sign-in and sign-out with a signature

    Each child has a card on the tablet. Tap it, choose who is signing, record a health check, and the parent signs on screen.

  • Attendance at a glance

    Who is in right now, counted under and over 24 months, with absences and no-shows recorded for the day.

  • Staff clock-in

    Assistants and staff sign themselves in and out on the same tablet, so hours are recorded without a separate time clock.

  • Visitor log

    Deliveries, inspectors and contractors sign in with the reason for their visit and the time they arrived and left.

  • Food menus and forms

    Post the week's menu, track meals served, and keep enrollment, medical and voucher forms filed by child, staff member or facility.

  • Reports and exports

    Attendance for any date range, exported to Excel or PDF in a couple of taps.

  • CAPS attendance export

    A month of attendance laid out week by week the way CAPS Online asks for it, as Excel or PDF, ready for you to enter there. Made from the sign-ins you already record.

  • Backups and data export

    Your account's records can be backed up and downloaded in full. The data is yours, and you can take it with you.

  • More than one location

    Run several sites from one account. Each location has its own tablet, its own children and staff, and its own time zone.

  • Parent portal

    Invite guardians to their own login, where they can see their child's days and hours.

  • Team logins and permissions

    Providers, assistants and staff each get their own sign-in, and each sees only what their role allows.

A closer look

One child's page in the provider portal: the documents checklist with each required paper marked Received, Missing or Expires soon, and the immunization chart with each dose checked off and the vaccine still due highlighted.

Papers and vaccines, without the binder

Each child's page lists the papers your daycare needs, from the blue card to the medical form, and marks each one received, missing or expiring soon. Attach a photo or scan to any item; older versions are kept.

Check off vaccine doses as they come in. The chart says what is needed at the child's age and flags what is due, so you see a gap before an inspector does.

The sign-in sheet for one child: buttons to choose who is signing (mother, father, staff or someone else), a Health check done button, and a parent's signature drawn on screen.

At the door

The tablet stays signed in all day as your location. Parents find their child and tap one big button; the time is recorded, they choose who is signing and sign with a finger. Absences and no-show calls are recorded too, so the day's register is complete.

Allergies and medical notes are kept on each child's record for the staff who need them.

The staff attendance screen: today's date and the time, totals for staff signed in, signed out, not arrived and absent, and a card for each staff member with a large Sign In or Sign Out button and an Absent button.

Staff hours

Staff sign in and out from their own card on the tablet. The totals show at a glance who is in, who has left and who has not arrived yet.

The export screen: choose child attendance, staff attendance, visitor log or food attendance, choose Excel or PDF, pick a date range and download.

Reports when you need them

Pick the records and the dates, choose Excel or PDF, and download. The office screens on the tablet sit behind an admin PIN, so the front door stays the front door.

The provider portal dashboard: who is here now, with the number of children signed in, staff on the clock and visitors, and a list of each with the time they arrived.

The office, from anywhere

Providers and directors sign in to the portal from their own computer or phone: who is here right now, children and parents, staff, documents, attendance history and late sign-outs across every site.

Works on the tablet you already have

  • Runs in a web browser. There is no app to install or update.
  • Sized for a wall-mounted tablet, and just as usable on a phone or a desktop.
  • Each location signs in once with its Daycare ID and password and stays signed in through the day.
  • Each account's records are kept apart from every other account's, and sensitive fields are stored encrypted.
