In-home daycare software without the enterprise bulk
You are the teacher, the director, and the billing desk. Ashby collapses rooms, keeps the parent loop tight, and gets out of your way so you can start in minutes.
Built for a handful of children
In-home providers do not need multi-room admin theater. Enrollment and rooms collapse. Check-in, daily reports, and tuition autopay still matter — on a phone, between snack and nap.
What in-home providers use every day
Start with attendance, reports, billing, and the parent app. Add more as you grow.
Attendance & check-in
Staff- or guardian-mediated check-in with signatures, authorized pickup, and late pickup that feeds billing.
Daily & incident reports
Naps, meals, diapers, activities, and mood — bulk entry for a whole room, plus structured incident reports.
Roster & child records
Child and guardian profiles, emergency contacts, allergies, and authorized pickup lists — built for privacy.
Parent app
Phone-first parent PWA: today at a glance, daily reports, photos, payments, and multi-child switching.
Messaging & announcements
Center-to-parent threads scoped to guardians, plus center-wide announcements. Staff visibility follows rooms.
Billing & tuition
Stripe Connect, tuition plans, ACH and card, invoicing, autopay, dunning, statements, and year-end tax docs.
Start now — be live in 5 minutes
