New: Photo Permission Icon on KidCheck Check-In Labels

Pastor Karl here! I’m excited to tell you about a new update to my favorite Kids Check-In System, KIDCHECK! Child Security is not something you can take for granted or skip. Even small churches must have security in place for their kids ministry. The struggle with providing child security is real, and one small incident could put you at risk for a lawsuit or liability that could ultimately close the doors of any church.  KidCheck understands this, and that’s why they continue to upgrade their products and services, adding new and innovative ideas to make child security and check-in easier and safer for the kids under your care.  The name badge provides an at-a-glance, visual representation of what each child requires to be safe, celebrated, and served while reducing the time and effort staff and volunteers need to spend assessing important information about each child.  Their latest update is a photo permission icon that prints directly on the kids labels.

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. Authorized vs. Unauthorized options increase safety. An “unauthorized guardian” designation on an account helps reduce the chances of a child being released to someone they shouldn’t be.
