What it is
Kindertales is childcare management software for providers handling enrollment, staff, daily operations, and finances. Its online registration and CRM workflows can follow a family from an initial inquiry or tour through waitlisting, application, registration, attendance, and graduation. Billing tools cover recurring payment plans, card and direct debit payments, subsidy and agency billing, and automatic tax receipts; payment processing is powered by Stripe. Staff can record developmental milestones and communicate with families using preset or customizable message templates. Attendance supports QR code or facial recognition check-in and check-out, with historical and projected reports. The product is available on the web and through iOS and Android apps, and families can use the app or desktop access. Kindertales says its reporting uses Microsoft Power BI and can include accounting, payroll, and other operational data. Pricing is paid and available on request. The Kindertales for Parents app requires the child’s provider to use the platform.
