The tools to run your center every day: attendance, billing, agreements, a family portal families open from their inbox, and the compliance records licensing asks for. Nothing you’ll never touch.
The daily essentials, fast.
Check children in and out, see real-time staff-to-child ratios by room, and export attendance for licensing in a couple of clicks.
Turn any tablet into a secure PIN check-in station for staff and families. No extra hardware.
Message one family or the whole center. Your center gets its own email address, families just hit reply, and every response lands back in your Seedling inbox with your admins notified.
Organize children into rooms, track who is where, and keep rosters current without spreadsheets.
Updates from their inbox. No parent left behind.
Every guardian opens a private link from their email and they are in, on any phone, with nothing to download, nothing to install, no one locked out.
Snap and share the day’s best moments privately, and parents see them in their portal the moment you post.
Parents can hand out a read-only link so grandparents and family see the photos too, and revoke it anytime.
Naps, meals, check-ins, and notes roll up into a simple daily view and an optional summary email.
Tuition collected on time, without the chasing.
One flat price for unlimited children and staff. Most platforms charge per child and pile on tiers and add-ons until they run $200 to $400 a month. Yours stays $40.
Tuition plans, Stripe autopay, payment links, sibling and staff discounts, and one-time charges, billed and collected for you.
Your center connects its own Stripe account, so tuition lands straight in your bank. Seedling never holds your funds or controls your payouts, you just get a simple billing screen.
Send your own agreement with merge fields and get a signed PDF back, with an audit trail, and no third-party e-sign fees.
Generate each family’s year-end childcare payment statement, with your center’s EIN for IRS Form 2441, in one click.
The records inspectors ask for, in one place.
See every room’s ratio at a glance and get flagged the moment one needs another staff member.
Store health forms and key details by child; spot missing records and expiring documents, then send bulk reminders.
Flag allergies where staff will see them, and keep a medication administration record (MAR) of every dose given.
Track CPR, First Aid, background checks, and training, with expiry flags so nothing quietly lapses.
Log fire, tornado, and lockdown drills with date, duration, and headcount, the record your licensor asks for.
Turn a family’s first look into a request for a spot.
A clean public page with your programs, hours, photos, and tuition starting point. Fill it in from Settings in minutes, or email us your details and we set it up for you, hosted free at your own web address.
Families ask for a spot or a tour right on your page, and the inquiry lands in your inbox with their child’s age and when they’d like to start. Reply straight from your email.
