Playground

Child care management platform

Playground builds software for managing every aspect of running a child care business — enrolment, billing, staffing and compliance — with the aim of eliminating the administrative work that consumes the time of people who opened a centre in order to look after children. Reducing that overhead is also the route to the company's broader goal of making excellent child care accessible to all, since administrative cost is embedded in what families pay. It works with thousands of schools across the country and holds several statewide contracts.
