Five Benefits of a Children’s Check-In System

Secure children’s check-in is about more than just attendance tracking. KidCheck delivers a full-featured, easy-to-use, and scalable check-in solution, helping you strengthen child safety, increase data accessibility, connect with families, and streamline your check-in/out process. Child Safety Child safety is vital and certain tracking and safety measures are necessary. You must have accurate records of children checking in and out, know who is picking up, verify they are authorized to do so, and be aware of allergy or medical concerns. Safety is the foundation upon which KidCheck is built. Children’s check-in also helps reduce liability providing a layer of protection for volunteers/staff. Security Labels include matching security codes and unique watermark images printed on child badges and guardian receipts, and important allergy and medical warnings. A special icon is printed on a child’s label if an unauthorized guardian is listed on their account. Electronic Guardian Receipts are available on any mobile device via the KidCheck App and contains no personal information, so no one can pick up a child who shouldn’t.

I decided that wasn’t going to happen on my watch! But putting stickers on teenagers wasn’t exactly a realistic option! There was no way I was going to get the “cool kids” to put name tags on or get parents to come in a use a sticker code check to pick up their kids. Teens are old enough to leave when we dismiss, and many of them drive. But I still wanted accurate attendance and registration. How delighted I was to discover that, as usual, KidCheck…
