No two families’ schedules are the same. In order to meet the needs of your community, your child care program needs to offer flexible scheduling options. Having the ability to choose your program’s scheduling makes it stronger and more desirable to the community because let’s face it, it’s hard to find quality child care that fits a family’s schedule.
Some program management software dictates how you should schedule your program’s offerings. If you want to offer different schedules, you may need to create different registration sections to provide more scheduling options. For example, there would be one section for mornings only, a second section for afternoons only, and a third section for mornings and afternoons. If during these times you’d like families to choose their child’s activity, then there’s even more sections to be created which creates a mess for families and a reporting headache for staff.

Perhaps a family needs to use before care on only Mondays and Wednesdays, but every afternoon Monday through Friday. With Eleyo’s registration process, families can choose exactly what works for them. Some of Eleyo’s customers offer two afternoon sessions so that parents who can pick up their children at 4:30 p.m. are charged one rate, and those who can’t be there until 6:00 p.m. can be charged a different rate.
Eleyo makes it easier for families to choose which activities their children are involved in during their before or after school session. Allowing parents to choose activities ahead of time helps control the chaos during these sessions.
