NestliCare is daycare management software. You use it to run every side of your center: check children in, share the day with parents, collect tuition, manage staff, and keep records for your local regulators. It's free to run your daycare on NestliCare, with no tiers and no trial clock.

The three kinds of people who use NestliCare

Owners and center admins run the business side: billing, enrollment, staff, reports. You'll spend most of your time in the web dashboard at nestlicare.com.

Teachers work in the classroom. You'll check children in and out, post daily activities and photos, message parents, and log your hours. The mobile apps are built for this.

Parents stay connected to their child's day. You'll see a live feed of activities, message your child's teacher, handle invoices, and check in at pickup.

If you're setting up a brand-new daycare, start with Find your way around the dashboard to learn where everything lives, then follow Your first week, a checklist that takes you from signup to a running center. Prefer to watch? That page has a full twelve-minute video that sets up a daycare from scratch, every feature.

If you're moving from another system (or from paper), don't retype anything. See Move your data over. Our team sets up your families, children, and staff for you, free.

If you've just been invited to an existing daycare, jump to the collection for your role:
