For daycare families

They check kids in. We make sure someone’s said they’re coming.

Kid Pickup works alongside the apps daycares use, like Brightwheel and Procare.

Daycare pickup has a hard stop. When the plan falls apart at 4:40, it falls apart fast.

Your daycare’s app does the daycare’s job: check-in, check-out, and the list of adults allowed to pick up. It doesn’t decide which of those adults is going today. That’s a family question.

  • A name on every pickup

    Everyone in your circle sees who’s doing today, and which days are still open.

  • A heads-up when nobody has it

    You hear the day before, louder three hours out, and again at two, while there’s still time to sort it.

  • Request Help for the bad days

    Stuck at work? One request goes to everyone with your note.

  • The Friday grandparent, sorted

    Add the people who help. They take on the pickups they can do, free under your plan.

Kid Pickup doesn’t talk to your daycare or its app. Anyone doing pickup still needs to be on the daycare’s approved pickup list.

    Add the pickup: which kid, when, where. Everyone in your circle gets a notification and sees it on the calendar, marked open.

    Claimed

    Grandma taps to take it. Now it has a name on it, and you and the other parents get a notification that it’s covered.

    Reminded and done

    Grandma gets a reminder before she leaves. And if nobody had claimed it, you’d have heard the day before, three hours out and two hours out.

FAQ

Questions parents ask

Does Kid Pickup connect to Brightwheel or Procare?

No. They’re separate. Your daycare’s app handles check-in and approved pickups. Kid Pickup handles who in your family is going.

Will my daycare see anything in Kid Pickup?

No. Only the people you invite can see your family’s schedule.

Do I have to add daycare pickup every day?

No. Set it up once as a repeating pickup (daily, weekly, every two weeks or monthly) and it fills itself in.
