What Furaus is
Furaus is a childcare management platform for daycares and childcare centers, bringing enrollment, billing, attendance, daily care records, and family communication together. Centers can collect online inquiries and applications and manage waitlists. Staff can use one-tap check-in and check-out, record naps, meals, allergies, and activities, then share daily reports with photos and notes. Families can pay recurring tuition invoices by card or bank transfer and use the parent app for messaging, announcements, updates, and payment history. For administrators and directors, Furaus includes finance reports, searchable child and staff records, staff scheduling, occupancy and ratios, and licensing documents. During setup, centers can use an onboarding wizard or ask the Furaus team to help import their data. The site says most programs are up and running within a few days, with guidance and support during the first weeks. Furaus is available on Android, iOS, and the web. Its Starter, Growth, and Multi-site plans have custom pricing; visitors are directed to contact sales, request pricing, or schedule a call. The company says information is encrypted, stored safely, and continuously monitored, but does not name a security certification.
