Absolutely. illumine is purpose-built as a preschool attendance app and daycare attendance software, supporting all the specific needs of early education centers. 

From contactless check-ins to real-time ratios and authorized pick-ups, it covers everything that preschools and daycare programs need to run smoothly and stay compliant, while also enhancing parent engagement and operational transparency.

illumine offers multiple secure, contactless options for check-ins and check-outs to simplify daily routines and enhance safety.

Parents can check their child in by scanning a QR code using the illumine app. Alternatively, teachers can scan the child’s school-issued ID card, or families can use a unique kiosk code on a tablet or phone placed at the school.

Teachers also have the flexibility to manually record attendance through the app or web platform, provided they have the necessary permissions.

In addition, illumine supports late check-ins, allowing staff to mark the specific time of arrival. Schools can also customize the check-in form to suit their policies—options include capturing a photo, recording temperature, and collecting a parent’s signature during check-in.

These features make drop-offs seamless while ensuring security, compliance, and accurate record-keeping.

Yes, illumine allows you to track both student and staff attendance within the same platform. Attendance can be recorded manually, via QR code, or through kiosk mode, and both students and staff can be moved across assigned rooms as needed. Leaves are also tracked digitally, making it easier to manage scheduling and maintain the required child-to-teacher ratios throughout the day.

As a reliable daycare sign-in app, illumine ensures that only authorized guardians can check children in or out.

Parents can assign approved pick-up contacts directly in the app, and the system logs every entry, creating a transparent and secure drop-off and pick-up experience. Optional geo-fencing further enhances safety by restricting check-ins to pre-defined zones around the center.

With built-in student attendance tracking software features, illumine continuously monitors the student-to-staff ratio in real time and alerts administrators if ratios fall below required standards.

This is critical for compliance in regulated childcare environments and helps centers stay ahead of audits while ensuring each child receives adequate supervision.

Attendance forecasting gives administrators a daily overview of expected student numbers, those already checked in or out, and those marked absent. This allows centers to analyze utilized capacity, and plan for new enrollments ahead of time. It’s especially valuable for high-capacity centers using preschool attendance software to optimize occupancy and resource planning.
