For childminders · Early access
Your daily records, EYFS 2-year checks, risk assessments, invoices, funding and accounts — in one place, organised around what inspectors actually look for. Built and used by a working childminder, not a software company.
Most childminders juggle an observation app, a separate invoicing tool, a shoebox of receipts and a folder of policies they hope are up to date. This brings the lot together, and puts your Ofsted readiness at the centre — so you always know where you stand before an inspector ever knocks.
Everything inside
Why it's different
Other tools bolt compliance on as an afterthought. Here it's the spine — the checklist, the reminders and the documents all point at the same goal: walking into your inspection ready.
It grew out of paying for clunky software that made simple jobs hard. Every tool here earns its place because it solves a problem a working childminder actually has.
It helps you prepare — it isn't an Ofsted product and doesn't submit anything to HMRC. It gets your numbers and your paperwork into the right shape, and leaves the official steps to you.
Simple pricing

Questions
No. If you can use a phone and fill in a form, you can use this. The whole point is to make the paperwork simpler, not add another complicated thing to learn.
Your records are yours. You can export everything — children's records, invoices, accounts and documents — as CSV, JSON or PDF at any time, so you're never locked in.
No tool can be — Ofsted doesn't endorse software. What this does is help you prepare: the checklist mirrors what inspectors look at, and it keeps your documents and records in order so you can show your practice with confidence.
It keeps clean, categorised books shaped the way Self Assessment and Making Tax Digital need — income, expenses and profit — ready to hand to your accountant or type into your return. It doesn't submit to HMRC for you.
Free for your first year, then £9.99 a month. No catch — it's early access, so you get in cheaply and help shape it while it grows.
