Nursery management software… our industry experience has shaped it

23 February 2021 7:28 AM

When you’re considering which nursery management software is the way forward for your nursery, we reckon that software designed by people who’ve actually worked in the sector will catch the eye. At Redfish, that’s exactly where we come from with our nursery system. We understand a nursery manager faces time-sensitive challenges every day, and is pulled in many directions. So we’ve made a point of designing our software to help you. And here’s how…

 

Our nursery management system is web-based

 

That means you and your approved staff can use it wherever they are… on site, at home, or in their car on their phone. It also means that changes you make are updated real-time. So when you log in, you’re looking at the most up to date version possible. Reports, communications, data… it’s all accurate and to the minute. Plus, if you’re overseeing several sites, you still only need one application; that’s one click to open and a single log in for you to view all locations. Information can be site specific or across the entire business, depending on your access rights and what you’re wanting to know.

 

We’ve made financial management really easy

 

We always say that a well-designed application can feel like you have an extra pair of hands working in the business. And never is that more keenly felt than when you’re dealing with financial aspects. Our system offers functionality specifically tailored to make your life easier:

 

  • Automated billing and funding – Once it’s set up, it can all just happen behind the scenes.
  • Easy direct debit functionality – A simple to use facility that creates the files you need to upload to your bank direct debit software.
  • Credit control functionality – Enabling pre-written reminder letters etc. to be sent. You don’t have to re-write them each time.

 

Communication is critical… we make it simple

 

A busy nursery manager needs to be able to communicate with staff, parents, and the outside world quickly and easily. Our system helps you do this in many ways:

  • You can email and text from within the system, and your messages can go to individuals or pre-defined groups. You just need to pick.
  • You can track and manage enquiries with our tailored enquiry functionality.
  • You can manage complaints and monitor trends at the press of a button, which helps to identify issues early.

 

Rich operational functionality

 

For nursery management software to be of use it needs to be able to facilitate different types of user having access. Obviously, not all information needs to be available to everyone. Our system, therefore, enables managers to set roles and preferences so staff only have access to the information they need. However, that’s not all our system enables you to do, it also:

  • Allows you to track cohort groups, room usage, KPIs etc.
  • Operates multiple registers
  • Facilitates easy administration for health & safety
  • Monitors staffing ratios etc.
  • Tracks shifts and monitors cover
  • Checks on absence

To name but a few functions…
