Childcare management platform
Nursery management software your team and parents can rely on
From first enquiry to daily care updates and invoicing — one platform for nursery admins, teachers, and families.
- Built for all ECE provider types
- Admin, Teacher & Parent portals
- Magic-link parent onboarding
- Daily activity feed with photos
Nursery operators balance ratio compliance, parent expectations, and tight admin teams. DaycareMate gives you a single source of truth for who's enrolled, who's in today, and what families owe.
Built for nurseries that need fast classroom workflows and finance teams that need invoice-first billing with configurable tax.
Why centres switch
Problems we solve
Common operational pain points for centres like yours — and how DaycareMate addresses them.
Lead enquiries scattered across channels
Website forms, walk-ins, and WhatsApp messages don't belong in separate inboxes.
Attendance without the morning scramble
Check-in boards, QR scan, and leave approvals should take seconds — not a whiteboard and three apps.
Parent communication overload
1:1 messages and centre-wide announcements need one inbox, not personal phones.
Deposits, VAT, and monthly fees
Nursery billing mixes one-off and recurring charges — each line needs the right tax treatment.

FAQ
Questions about nursery management software
Is DaycareMate only for nurseries?
No. DaycareMate serves preschools, nurseries, daycares, childcare centres, early learning centres, Montessori schools, kindergartens, and playschools worldwide. This page focuses on nurseries because many teams search for software using that term.
Does DaycareMate include mobile apps?
Parent, Teacher, and Admin portals are fully responsive with PWA install — add them to your home screen on phone or tablet. Native mobile apps are on the roadmap.
Can I use my own currency and timezone?
Yes. Currency, timezone, and tax/VAT are configurable per deployment. UAE centres typically use AED, 5% VAT, and Asia/Dubai timezone by default.
Is there online payment processing?
Manual payment recording and parent payment proof submissions are supported today. Online payment gateways are on the roadmap.
How is my centre's data isolated?
Each centre gets a dedicated deployment with its own database, private object storage, CDN, and email identity — data is not shared between customers.
Does DaycareMate support nursery billing with VAT?
Yes. Tax/VAT rate is configurable per deployment with per-line taxable flags on invoices. UAE nurseries typically use 5% VAT with AED currency.
Can we capture nursery enquiries from our website?
Yes. Embed enquiry forms on your site or link to a hosted register page — leads land in your admin pipeline with consent capture.
