About CRAFTS Childcare
CRAFTS was developed in Canada for Canadian Childcare Providers that operate Childcare Centers, Licensed Home Childcare Agencies, Before & After School Programs, Out of School Care, Montessori, and other forms of Early Childcare Education. Empower parents with a Parent Portal that allows them to see observations about their child, review billing and payments, attendance, and download tax receipts. Simplify the documentation procedures for your educators by giving them quick access to child details, online attendance, daily log and observation tracking, plus more. Administrators get simplified total insight over administrative processes for multiple locations from registration to financial management and reporting. Give Board Members access to reports in CRAFTS that allows them to review financial and enrollment details which allows them to better prepare for meetings.
