For Parents

How to tell your daycare you'll be late for pickup, sending someone else, or keeping your child home.

Open the parent app to see activities, meals, naps, diapers, and photos as teachers post them.

Your daycare can email you directly through NestliCare. What those emails look like, how to reply so the right person gets it, and how to spot a fake.

Start a conversation with your child's teacher or center staff directly from the app.

How newsletters and announcements from your daycare reach you, where to find past ones in the app, and how to control which notifications you receive.

For documents you only need to read (parent handbook, sick policy), type your name to confirm you've read it. No fields to fill.

Fill in a form your daycare sent you, draw your signature once and apply it to every line, check it over, and submit.

When your daycare requests a birth certificate, immunization record, or a filled-out form, scan the paper with your phone or upload a file, then submit.

First-time setup — save a card or bank account from the Dashboard so you can pay invoices in one tap.

Pay a tuition invoice in the NestliCare app with a card or bank account, and set up auto-pay so you never think about it again.

Add a new card or bank account, remove an old one, and turn auto-pay on or off.

See every invoice, past and present — with filters by status and full payment detail per invoice.

Add a grandparent, babysitter, or other helper as a family member. They get their own pickup code, and it works at the kiosk right away.

Pickup authorizations no longer exist. A family member's pickup code always works at the kiosk — just add them once.

Add your daycare's closures and events to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or Outlook so you never miss a picture day.

See, share, and reset the pickup codes of the family members you've added — so a grandparent or babysitter can collect your child without installing the app.

Fill out the forms your daycare sent you — emergency contacts, medical, consent forms — via the email link.

For family members — find your 4-digit pickup code and use it at drop-off and pickup. It always works at the kiosk.
