ChildWatch is a web-based childcare management software service. It provides anywhere access on Windows, Macintosh, & Mobile for childcares and CACFP sponsors.
I like that it has an easy to use interface with many features available such as reporting/accounting functions which are very helpful in keeping up records of your daycare business! The only thing i dislike about this program so far would be how difficult you have make changes or add new pages (forms).
This makes adding more information into each page time consuming but overall its still worth using since most people dont know what they want until after trying out different programs. Keepโฆ
Pros
Great product!!! And extremely affordable price tag compared against competitors.
I like that you can have multiple users in one account so if your staff has to leave or go home early it doesn't matter because they are still logged into their computer/laptop. The time out feature allows me to keep track of who's working when and where. Also having an option to send emails directly from my phone makes things much easier! Sometimes there are issues with the website not loading correctly but overall this program works well.
If you're looking for something easy to use andโฆ
Pros
Easy scheduling system
Detailed reports
Employee attendance tracking is great too.
Can integrate payroll systems, email notifications etc.to make everything more efficient as far managing child watch goes
I like that it has an online portal where you can check in/out children without having to go into your office or drive around town looking at windows of other people's offices! The only thing about this program i dislike are some sections such as "Child Watch" which when clicked brings up another page with different information but no way back unless u close out completely (which closes all open tabs).
This makes navigating through certain pages more difficult than necessary so be sure not too
