Childcare Software in Durham
Systems for Durham nurseries and childcare providers. The records an inspector asks for are specific — attendance, who collected each child, medicines given, accidents, allergies, staff suitability — and they have to be produced on the day, which is a different requirement from having the information somewhere.
Why this comes up
The problem
Attendance is a paper register, medication is a notebook, and producing any of it for an inspection means someone going through folders.
What you get
What we deliver
- Attendance recorded with arrival, departure and who collected the child
- Medication logged with the parental permission that authorised it
- Accidents and incidents recorded at the time, with parents notified
- Allergies and dietary needs visible wherever food is served
- Staff suitability and training held with expiry tracking
- Ratios visible live, since they are a condition of operating

Durham's economy is dominated by its university and cathedral, so the commercial base is small and much of the local demand comes from spinouts and suppliers attached to the institutions rather than from independent industry.
Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones.

Childcare Software in Durham — common questions
- Why does live ratio matter?
- Because ratios are a condition of registration, not a target, and they change through the day as staff take breaks and children arrive. A system showing the position now lets a manager act; a report produced afterwards only tells them when they were non-compliant.
- What has to be recorded about medication?
- Written permission from the parent before it is given, then what was administered, how much, when and by whom. It is one of the most commonly criticised areas at inspection, usually because the permission exists but cannot be matched to the dose given.
- How should collection be handled?
- By recording who actually collected, against a list of people permitted to. Settings often record the time and not the person, which leaves no answer to the one question that matters if a dispute arises about who took a child home.
- Is children's data treated differently?
- Yes, and the information here is unusually sensitive — health, family circumstances, safeguarding. Access should be limited to staff who need it for that child, retention should be defined, and parents' access to their own child's records should be straightforward.
- Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
- Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
- Do you cover the areas around Durham?
- Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
