Summer Camp Management Software

Let’s face it, COVID-19 has majorly disrupted the entire ecosystem of families, children, and Childcare providers. From schools & Childcare Centers closing in 2020 to now daycare summer programs closing as well, the situation has brought challenges to more families and Childcare businesses than not.

Back in March when COVID seriously started spreading in the U.S., society had to make some major adjustments across the board. Many parents and their children had to adapt to working from home and those who were already working from home had to adapt to working AND caring for their children at the same time. For the parents who were able to continue to send their children to Childcare Centers, the fear of their child getting sick robbed many of their peace of mind even while at work.

Childcare Summer Camp

On the other side, many Childcare Centers across the country including daycare summer camp programs were forced to close or to reduce capacity significantly, thus unleashing another series of challenges for Center owners, directors, and staff. Some Centers went out of business altogether, and others struggled to reopen once restrictions eased. The timing of reopening also was a challenge in itself, as the reopening happened in the midst of summer, not giving Centers enough time to prepare to welcome children safely into their daycare summer programs.

For parents, this summer of 2020 has presented a whole other series of challenges and concerns. Many have started working again after the reopening in June and the need to enroll their children in some type of Childcare summer camp has increased. However, many are unable to fulfil this need because fewer Centers are open and because they fear that their child(ren) might not be safe at the Childcare summer camp options available to them.

A Childcare Software From Beyond

It is in situations like these that a summer camp management software could be a real asset for Centers or childcare providers willing to offer daycare summer programs.

This will create new avenues for more daycare summer camp ideas.

So what should a summer camp management software do in order to give parents comfort and peace of mind leaving their children in daycare summer program ideas?

It should put safety and simplicity at the forefront.

Our camp management software was built with all the features necessary to run an entire summer Childcare camp and now includes features that add more safety and simplicity for staff and children.

Features Of Our Unique Software

Here are some key features your summer camp management software should have to succeed in the new normal:

Touchless Registration & Enrollment

The more exposed to shared surfaces and objects like the paper we are, the more chances we have of becoming infected. With 1Core, Camp registration is fully available online. From filling out all forms required by the Centers to completing approvals and creating child profiles automatically, touchless registration is one feature we can no longer live without.

Touchless Sign In And Out

This is another huge way we minimized contact with surfaces. With the 1Core mobile apps, signing children in and out has never been easy. We use a QR code system that also makes it easier for schools to display for parents to check their children in and out of the Center. Center staff and teachers can do so as well as using their own version of the app.

E-Health Screening For Children And Staff

Another important security measure in the New Normal is health screenings and temperature checks. With this feature, parents can fill out their child(ren)’s health status before even driving them to their Childcare Center. Staff can do the same for themselves and for children that are dropped off. The app keeps the historical record of all health checks performed per user, even those performed randomly in the day.

Online Management Of CAMP Tuition And Payments

We all love cash and checks but, let’s face it, they are all major carriers of germs. With this camp management software, all payments, including additional fees, late pick up fees etc., and even program discounts can be managed fully online. Parents can use either their mobile app or desktop computer to make payments in a simple and organized manner. They can also use the app to add or cancel sessions, as this is something that happens often in summer camp programs.

Live Streaming From The Center To Parents To Give Them More Peace Of Mind

Because we at 1Core are fully committed to building peace of mind into our software, we also built a live streaming feature into our mobile apps. Now teachers and caretakers can GO LIVE at any point during the day and parents can watch their children in action from wherever they are using their mobile app.

Even though we are still experiencing a lot of uncertainty, we hope these features make life a little easier for everyone involved. After all, that’s why we exist in the first place.
