Through the iCare Management Dashboard, daycare managers can keep track of all daily tasks and activities, view important statistics, and manage their work easily and efficiently. Features include:

1. Check student progress reports

Offering your customers a way to view their child’s progress helps you by not having to print and provide those reports. Plus, parents can then see their child’s reports since the beginning of their tenure with your childcare center all in one place.

2. Pay their bill or update billing information

Online bill pay helps your childcare center avoid late payments and reduce the administrative burden of invoicing. Automate the process and allow parents to update their billing information through their childcare parent portal when needed.

Are you planning to take older children on a field trip this summer? Or maybe you need to update information for a child when they graduate from one classroom to the next. You can digitize the process of obtaining this information from parents by putting your forms within your childcare management software.

4. Update emergency contact information

As part of your emergency planning, you should have a process for updating emergency contact information. You can choose how often to make updates, but it should be at least annually. Within your self-service portal, send parents a notification that it’s time to review their information for accuracy.

Using a self-service portal, parents can engage with teachers. Armed with information from the child’s reports, parents can discuss their child’s development and learn more about what they should be focused on.
