What Kindertales is

Kindertales is childcare management software for coordinating enrollment, family communication, attendance, billing, lesson planning, staff, devices, and finances. Its enrollment workflows cover the process from inquiry and tour through waitlist, application, registration, attendance, and graduation. Billing includes recurring plans, card and direct debit payments, subsidy and agency billing, and automatic tax receipts; processing is powered by Stripe. Attendance supports QR code or facial recognition check-in and check-out, with historical and projected reports. Staff can message teachers and families from tablets, desktops, or mobile devices using templates. Providers can record developmental milestones using default or custom entries, which management can edit. Reporting and analytics are powered by Microsoft Power BI and can include accounting, payroll, and other operational datasets. Kindertales is available on the web and through iOS and Android apps. The company says browser traffic uses 256-bit SSL encryption, its application and data are behind firewalls and monitored around the clock, and it is SOC II Type 1 compliant. Pricing is available on request.

Who it suits

Kindertales is aimed at growing and multi-location childcare providers, including centers and program operators. Its family app access is relevant only when a child’s provider uses Kindertales.

Verdict

Kindertales brings enrollment, billing, attendance, family communication, and reporting into one childcare management platform. Providers should request pricing and note that the parent app depends on their childcare provider using the platform.
