My Childcare App is the simple, all-in-one management tool built for home daycares and small preschools. Running a childcare program means juggling a dozen things at once and parent updates, billing, messages, enrollment are on top of that! My Childcare App brings it all together so you can spend less time on administration and more time with the kids. DAILY UPDATES & PHOTO SHARING Share photos, milestones, announcements, and daily updates with families in a beautiful feed. Parents can react with emoji, leave comments, and never miss a moment of their child's day. Schedule posts ahead of time or share them on the spot. SECURE MESSAGING Chat directly with parents without sharing your personal phone number. One-on-one and group conversations keep communication organized, private, and all in one place. AUTOMATED BILLING & PAYMENTS Set up billing plans with flexible schedules — weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually. Invoices are generated and sent automatically. Accept payments through Stripe, or manually log cash, check, Venmo, Zelle, Cash App, and more. Track balances, apply credits, and keep your books clean. PARENT PORTAL Parents get their own experience that includes a live feed of their child's day, invoice history, online payments with saved cards, and secure messaging with staff. Quick login with QR code makes access effortless. STUDENT & CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT Organize students into rooms, track contact relationships, and manage approved pickups and emergency contacts. Search across your roster instantly. PUSH NOTIFICATIONS Parents are notified instantly when you share a post, send a message, or post a comment which helps keep families engaged and informed in real time. BUILT BY TEACHERS. FAMILY OWNED. My Childcare App was created by educators who understand the daily reality of running a childcare program. No bloated feature sets, no corporate call centers.

Turn your iPad into a self-service check-in kiosk. Walk-in guests sign themselves in at the door, pick their stylist or service, and join the waitlist, with nobody standing at the front desk taking names. Built for hair salons, barbershops, threading and brow studios, nail salons, spas, clinics, and any business with a line at the door. CHECK-IN KIOSK ON IPAD • Self check-in: Guests enter their name and phone number, choose a stylist or "first available," and select their service. • Kiosk mode: The iPad locks to the check-in screen so guests can't reach anything else. A 4-digit PIN is the only way out. • Digital waivers at check-in: Guests sign required waivers right on the kiosk. Every signed copy is stored and emailed to you. • Your branding: Pick a kiosk theme and add your logo so the check-in screen looks like your business. • Text when it's their turn: Guests wait wherever they like and get an SMS the moment you're ready for them. MORE WAYS TO JOIN THE LINE • QR code check-in: Guests scan a code on your counter or TV and join from their own phone, with no app to download. • Tap to Join: Stick an NFC tag on your counter and guests tap their phone to open your check-in form. Program the tag from the app on your iPhone, then print the matching sign. WAITLIST ON YOUR TV Turn any screen into a live waitlist board. Guests see their place in line and estimated wait, so they stop asking the front desk. Install the free Ozync Waitlist app on your TV or open it in the TV's browser, then pair it with a 6-digit code. RUN YOUR FRONT DESK • Walk-in waitlist and appointments side by side, with flexible time slots, confirmations and reminders. • Your own booking website, with a template built for your industry, your services, hours and photos. • Customizable SMS templates so the wording stays yours. • Reports on your busiest hours, average wait times and no-show rates, exportable as PDF or CSV. PERFECT FOR Hair Salons & Barbershops Threading & Brow Studios Nail Salons & Spas Clinics & Wellness Studios Restaurants & Cafes Any walk-in service business SET UP IN MINUTES Create your business, tap the kiosk icon, and put the iPad by the door.
