Why Safely Stow?

Why Safely Stow?

Totally

FREE...

for Facilities.

(really)

Use Safely Stow to Manage Your Attendance, Communicate With Parents and Manage Check-In With Ease,

Parents check in their children from their cars and notify you when they're outside your building. Always know who is picking up a child.

Is your drop off and pick up too chaotic?

Are you ever unsure that kids are getting picked up by the…

RIGHT PERSON?

How many times have you been frustrated with the check-in clipboard and the chaos of child pick-up?

Parents don’t enjoy the delays and confusion of dropping off and picking up from child care.

What’s worse, this informal system is terrible for accurately keeping track of who is authorized and supposed to pick up a child each day.

These old systems are unhealthy, unproductive, and unsafe for our kids.

So, how exactly

DO YOU

create a system?

(that won’t break your brain or your bank account)

You don’t need to become a tech wizard or pay $100’s of dollars a month for a solution that’s way bigger than what you need.

With Safely Stow, you can get started in days, with very little setup, at no cost…ever.  That’s FREE free.

This is because Safely Stow is parent-driven. Parents will enter and manage their children in your database and parents pay the small subscription ($12 per year). Your only job is to ensure they get on, and double check attendance.

Your parents will handle check-in, check-out and set each day’s pick-up…and Safely Stow makes sure they can do it!

To Sum It Up:

SAFELY STOW HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED

TO EFFICIENTLY MANAGE

(IMPROVE, SPEED UP & ENHANCE)

DAILY ATTENDANCE AND CHECK-IN

TRADITIONAL CHILDCARE SOFTWARE DOESN’T COME CHEAP.

In fact, you can expect to pay hundreds of dollars per month for childcare solutions. Most services don’t offer online pricing plan details because they want to sell you on the excess services they provide.

That’s crazy…and far more software than most youth activity providers need.

This is why we set out to create a simple, efficient solution that 90% of childcare providers need. If you’re like me, you get shivers thinking about trying to learn a new software program. Add to that the hassle of getting started, trying to get parents to use it and then getting to pay thousands of dollars a year for the joy of it…it’s just not worth it.

We built Safely Stow to give you a clean, easy to start solution that eliminates all the headaches…including the cost. There is NO OTHER SOLUTION that is entirely free for facilities…and the cost to parents is small.

INTRODUCING

SAFELY STOW…

Without the high costs, complexity, and arduous start up effort that is usually accompanied by the traditional child care software solutions.

It’s that easy.

And our app comes with tons of functionality, so you don’t have to sacrifice communication, accuracy, printed attendance sheets or anything.

Try with confidence with nothing to pay, ever.

SET UP YOUR FACILITY FOR FREE

On our web site or in the app, set up your facility and try things out for free. Once you decide to use Safely Stow, invite parents, who will be prompted to subscribe when they add a child. If you want to pay as a facility, you can instead choose a facility plan, and parents will be able to use the app for free with your facility.

You can use Safely Stow for free as a facility, without having to pay anything, ever. Parents will pay a small $12 per year subscription fee.

SAFELY STOW IS SO EASY,

GRANDPARENTS WILL LOVE IT

We know that grandparents frequently pick up their grandchildren on behalf of their children. So we designed Safely Stow with these generally less-tech enthusiastic users in mind.

In order for contactless check-in to work, you need all the users to use the software. Safely Stow is so easy that universal user adoption is realistic.

If a grandparent has a smart phone, they can use Safely Stow. So easy that grandparents will love it.

We keep saying that Safely Stow is free, and that probably sounds too good to be true. But it’s not! Safely Stow is really free for facilities. The default plan is for parents to pay a $12 per year subscription when they add their first child to your facility.

You can, however, pay for all of your parents with a facility subscription if that is what you prefer. Our plans are listed in detail below.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Have a question that's not answered here? Please email me (Bryan). I'm the founder and developer. You can reach me at info@safelystow.com for personal support.

1. Who creates the child records?

The Safely Stow philosophy is that child records belong to parents. They determine people who are authorized to pick up and check in and check out their kids. For this reason, and because set up is so much more simple when parents add their own child records, it's usually best for parents to populate your database for you!

2. What is the check in window?

Every facility has the option to create and activate a check in window. You might want to make announcements, ask a health questionnaire or remind parents of policies. For Symptom and Health Sign Offs, we suggest consulting https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/schools-childcare/guidance-for-childcare.html for government suggestions.

3. What are programs?

What we call programs can also be considered classes, classrooms or anything you like. Think of programs in two ways: first, the program a child is being checked into by the parent. Second, the list of programs and rosters that you create. A facility can add children to a roster for each program. Then during the day, they can view this filtered roster. In this way you can view all children enrolled in a class, regardless of what mistaken programs a parent might use!

4. How do parents add people to pick up their child?

In order for a parent to connect to and add another user to their child as a pick up user, first they should friend that person. They can do that in the friends window or by adding a pick up user on their child's record. Once connected, they can assign them as a pick up any time.

5. Can pick up users be removed?

Yes, absolutely. The only user that can't be removed is the record owner. In that case, the child record should just be deleted.

6. Do I need to check out every child each night?

No, the system is for you and your purposes. Each night, every record's check in status is reset to "none." Your end of day process is completely up to you.
