Tot Tracker already handles the staff side of running a childcare service that you need every day: staff clock in and out, breaks and off-site time, user accounts with role-based access, and two-step login. A dedicated HR module for vacancies, staff profiles, qualifications, Garda vetting, rotas and leave is in development and marked Coming soon below.
This page sets out clearly what nurseries, Montessori schools, crèches and after-school services can use today, and what is on the way.
These staff features are live in every Tot Tracker account:
Staff clock in, take breaks, step off-site and clock out from the same dashboard they use for drop-off and collection. A school run or a trip to the shops is tracked the same way as a break.
One screen shows every staff member's day as a coloured timeline: on site, on break, off site, or no data. Tap any entry for the exact times, how long each break ran, and when an off-site trip started and finished, and correct it if needed.
It gives you an auditable record of who was on site and when, which supports the staff-to-child ratio questions an inspector asks. Tot Tracker's clock records are not a payroll system.
Staff can only clock in from a device you have authorised, so a shift cannot be clocked from a phone at home. Add or remove devices whenever you need to, and the one in use is highlighted.

Every member of staff has their own login. Access levels decide what each person can see and do, from recording a nappy change to editing invoices, and permissions are scoped to the venue so multi-site services keep each location separate. Two-step login adds a second check at sign-in.
Attendance, care records and NCS records are all attributed to the member of staff who made them, which is what gives the inspection report its audit trail.
The following features are in development and are not available yet. Full Team HR is on the roadmap for late 2026.
When each of these launches, it will move into the Available today section of this page and be announced on our product updates page.
Staff features are included in every Tot Tracker plan, and the HR module will be too when it launches. See Tot Tracker pricing or see all features.
