Daily activity logs
Meals, naps, diaper changes, moods, notes, and milestones — designed so every common action takes one thumb and under a minute on a phone.
Features Everything your center needs.
Everything your center needs.
Nothing it doesn't.
LittlesLink replaces paper forms, spreadsheets, and a pile of single-purpose apps with one calm system your staff and families will actually enjoy using — at one location or a hundred.
Daily life & family connection
Every moment of the day, gently shared
Teachers log the day in seconds; families follow along in a calm portal built on one promise — meaningful updates, never spam.
Photo sharing
Photos are securely stored per center, and parents only ever see their own children.
Video sharing Pro & Network
Share short videos of big moments on higher tiers, with dedicated video storage.
Parent messaging
Two-way conversations between staff and families keep everything in one thread — no more lost notes in backpacks.
Calendar & events
Center-wide and classroom events are always visible to families, from picnic day to parent-teacher conferences.
Family portal
A clean, read-only view for guardians of everything about their kids: activity feed, photos, calendar, invoices, and messages.
Attendance, safety & compliance
Safety that is enforced, not just written down
From arrival to release, every safety-critical moment is documented and enforced by the app — and visible only to the right people.
Kiosk check-in & check-out
Any tablet or browser becomes a sign-in kiosk. Staff and guardians use a private PIN; managed kiosk devices are supported. PINs are stored hashed, and kiosk actions use short-lived 90-second encrypted tokens.
Pickup authorization & child release
Authorized-pickup lists, guardian-managed pickup permissions, and a full release history with CSV export. The app enforces who may pick up each child.
Incident reports
Document incidents properly and collect parent acknowledgment and sign-off — everything on file when licensing asks.
Live ratio dashboard Pro & Network
Real-time staff-to-child ratios across your classrooms, at a glance.
Staff time tracking & shifts Pro & Network
Track staff hours and shifts alongside the classroom schedule.
Audit logging
Sensitive administrative actions are logged, and policy acceptance is tracked with timestamp, IP, and device. Encrypted, off-site backups are part of operations.
Enrollment & paperwork
From waitlist to signed paperwork, without the paper
Bring families onboard digitally — and bring your existing data with you.
Digital enrollment Core & up
Enrollment forms, guardian invitations, and re-enrollment flows — families complete everything from their phone.
Custom form builder + e-signatures Pro & Network
Build your own forms and collect legally meaningful e-signatures.
Bulk import & migration
Switching from another system? Batch data import is built in, Pro includes assisted migration, and white-glove Advanced Migration is available for complex moves.
Money & operations
Billing that families understand and directors trust
Professional invoices, clean ledgers, and the exports your accountant and food program actually want.
Family billing
Daycare-to-family invoices with professional PDF output, ledgers, and payment tracking.
Advanced billing Pro & Network
Subsidy ledger and split billing built for real families — divorced and blended households, subsidy programs, and more.
QuickBooks export Pro & Network
Hand your accountant clean books without retyping anything.
CACFP food-program export
Food-program reporting made painless. Available as an add-on, included on Network.
Reports & exports
Attendance, releases, billing, and more — exportable whenever licensing, auditors, or your own curiosity asks.
AI assistant
An extra pair of hands for parent communication
A built-in drafting assistant, powered by Claude, helps staff write parent updates and documents in seconds. AI output is always a draft a human approves — it never sends, saves, or changes anything on its own, and child records are not automatically fed to the model.
Draft parent communications
Updates, reminders, newsletters — drafted in seconds, in your center’s voice, reviewed and sent by a human.
Monthly AI allowances
Every plan includes a monthly allowance of AI actions, from 100/mo on Home to 5,000 pooled on Network — with affordable boosts if you need more.
Multi-site organizations
Run every location from one dashboard
From a second location to a nationwide network — the Network tier adds the tools to operate every site as one organization.
Multi-location dashboard Network
Every center, one view — enrollment, attendance, and operations across all your sites.
API & webhooks Network
Connect LittlesLink to your own systems and workflows.
Custom branding Network
Put your organization’s brand on the family experience.
