FAQ
Questions about playschool management software
Is DaycareMate only for playschools?
No. DaycareMate serves preschools, nurseries, daycares, childcare centres, early learning centres, Montessori schools, kindergartens, and playschools worldwide. This page focuses on playschools 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.
