For childcare and early learning centres

Keep every room safe and every policy followed

In childcare, the policy is only as good as the educator on the floor today. Wikidoc keeps your policies and procedures current, inducts every educator on them, and records the daily safety checks.

Use cases

Policies and procedures

Every policy with its procedure, owner and review date, so the version an educator reads is the version the centre follows.

Educator induction

A program for new and relief educators covering room routines, child safety and your key policies, finished before their first shift in a room.

Daily safety checks

Opening, playground and sleep-room checklists with required items, ticked by the educator who did them, with the time on every tick.

Director

Policy read signatures, educator training and checklist history in one place, so a quality assessment starts with evidence, not a search.

Example

A childcare centre with five rooms updates its safe sleep policy. The director edits the policy and its procedure, sets the next review date and adds a quiz. Every educator, including relief staff, reads it and signs that they have, and the sleep-room checklist gets a new required item. When the quality assessor visits, the director shows which educators signed the current version and the sleep checks since the change.

Common questions

Is this a childcare management or parent app?

No. Keep the systems that handle enrolments, attendance, billing and parent updates. Wikidoc covers your policies and procedures, educator training, and the daily checks behind them.

Will this meet our national quality standard?

Standards differ by country and state, so we won’t claim that. Wikidoc keeps each policy, the training on it and the signed-off checks in one place, which is the evidence a quality assessment usually asks for.

Does Wikidoc hold children’s records?

It doesn’t need to. Children’s and families’ records stay in your childcare management system. Wikidoc holds the centre’s procedures, training and checks.

Can relief educators from an agency complete our induction?

Yes. They can complete it in a portal with their own email, without taking a seat. Anyone who runs checklists in your workspace joins as a member.
