All-In-One Daycare Software
It goes without saying that running a daycare centre is far from easy, and there is a huge range of different challenges that staff face on a day to day basis. From remaining always vigilant to ensure that each and every child is safe and comfortable to monitoring the performance, attendance and engagement of every member of your team, there’s always lots to think about and keep on top of. That’s why daycare software is so essential.
Most modern daycare centres have become aware of just how useful daycare software can be, and just how much easier it can make life for absolutely everyone involved in the centre – from management to staff and even parents.
Senior members of staff can quickly and easily see all the vital data and information they need to keep operations running smoothly, while parents – who are often very busy and liable to forget to check their child’s information sheet before they leave at the end of the day – can see all the relevant information regarding their child at the touch of a button on their smartphones and tablets.
And of course, the staff who are working directly with the children on a day to day basis are able to easily ensure that they’re always remaining compliant with sector regulations, and with company policies, by recording their activities using a convenient app.
All-In-One Daycare Software
The Best Daycare Software in Australia
Regardless of whether you’re looking for software for the daycare centre you manage, or whether you’re looking for home daycare software for your small business, you can be entirely confident that you’ll find the very best software available on the Australian market here at OWNA.
Our software comes in the form of an app, which can be quickly and conveniently downloaded onto your smartphone or tablet, and onto the devices your staff use on a daily basis. The app allows you to record, track and monitor staff check-ins and check-outs, menus, sleep checks and many other important areas of your childcare business.
It will also make it easier than ever before to check in visitors, record incidents and access medical reports. In short, the OWNA app has all the features required to make running a childcare business as simple and straightforward as it can possibly be.
OWNA Daycare Software
The OWNA Approach to Daycare Software
Here at OWNA, we take pride in our unique approach to developing daycare software. Unlike many of our competitors, we treat each and every individual business we work with as an individual enterprise with its own unique set of challenges, requirements and preferences.
That’s why, when a new customer contacts us, we provide an online demo that very same day. This gives us a chance to ensure that you’re fully informed about how our services work, and for us to gain an understanding of exactly what it is you’re looking for.
If you decide you’d like to work with us, we’ll get you an account and login within 24hrs. From there, the onboarding team will then get everything set up for you – such as transferring data, setting up your rooms, training your staff & going live to families.
Simply fill out this form on our website, and you could have an industry-leading piece of software up and running before you know it!
Our Childcare App does it all and will make a major difference to your centre. From childcare documentation, educator management & CCS to application assistance and other resources. Get in touch with us today!
