Software solutions

Connect Childcare integrates seamlessly with iConnect; for Observations and Assessments, and ParentZone; for Partnership with Parents. Providing you with one central and secure system to run all aspects of your setting. 

Connect Childcare is a comprehensive nursery management system. It stores all of your data securely in one place. So whenever you need something, you know exactly where to find it.

ParentZone

ParentZone helps providers to work in partnership with parents, which is a key Ofsted requirement. ParentZone is a fantastic tool for nursery practitioners to communicate with parents and encourage them to contribute to their child’s learning.

In an ideal world, every parent and practitioner would have time to have a chat about their children each day at pick up time, but as you know, this is not always possible. Through ParentZone, busy parents can check in and view their child’s daily activities and wow moments at a time that suits them best. 

Parents are encouraged to comment on observations posted to their child’s learning journey so can directly communicate with the nursery. They can even upload their own observations, contributing to their child’s learning journey and strengthening their bond with the staff and setting. 

iConnect

Many childcare professionals struggle under the increasing pressure to complete mountains of paperwork to satisfy Ofsted. But it doesn’t have to be such a laborious process. 

The introduction of iConnect on tablets in a setting can save hours of time, and allow practitioners to focus on their passion; nurturing and developing the children in their care. 

iConnect enables practitioners to save hours each week and reduces the need to spend time away from their key children. Observations can be done instantly on tablets in the rooms, and all of the information is stored safely, ready to access again when needed for assessments and checks. These observations can be linked to the EYFS, Curriculum for Excellence, Pre Birth to Three and many other frameworks. 

Daily activities, like sleeps meals and nappies are recorded quickly and easily and can online learning journeys can be sent straight out to parents and carers via ParentZone.
