    I do not like that on top of the fee we already pay, we would have to pay more for our teachers to download the app to their tablets.

    Very Helpful

    Date: Mar 10 2025
    Summary

    I would highly recommend using Procare to manage a daycare/preschool. Without it, we would have to pay more administrative workers.

    Positive

    Procare allowed us to start up a daycare with professional integrations. We are able to create and manage leads, communicate with parents, clock in/out for staff and integrate with our payroll software, bill and receive payments seamlessly, etc. We can see who is here at a glance, and keep our classrooms in ratio with no problem. We can send incident reports, keep track of potty times, naps, meals, etc.

    Negative

    There are a few minor things that I feel like could be improved on, but Procare welcomes feedback and is good to research what the users want and implement those things when practical.

    Procare usage

    Date: Feb 10 2025
    Summary

    We have started using the program more recently and I have found it to be asset to our program. It has made record keeping, tracking and attendance so helpful

    Positive

    The ease of the program is the number one thing for me. Parents and teachers have access to their students from their phones or in class devices. They can check them in and out, send messages, and so much more.

    Negative

    So far we haven't had any issues. We have used Procare for tuition fees for several years, but are now just getting into more of the options that are available for us to use.

    We Love Procare!

    Date: Mar 11 2025
    Summary

    As a child care provider, I’m so glad I started using Procare software! It’s made managing my daycare so much easier. The interface is super user-friendly, and I can easily keep track of attendance, communicate with parents, and organize all my records in one spot.

    One of the best features for me is the Parent Communication app. I can send updates, photos, and messages to parents throughout the day, which keeps them in the loop and reassured about their child’s day. The parents love it, and I can tell the kids enjoy seeing their progress reports too!

    Another huge time-saver is the billing and payment system. It automatically handles invoices and payments, so I don’t have to spend time on all that paperwork. That’s one less thing to worry about, and I can focus more on the kids.

    All in all, Procare has been a total game-changer for my daycare. It’s reliable, easy to use, and has made my day-to-day tasks a lot simpler. I definitely recommend it to other child care providers!
