Observations
Capture a moment in seconds — a photo, a few words, an EYFS link. Voice-to-observation turns what you say into a written note while your hands are full.
Features
Everything your setting needs, nothing it doesn't
Yenlio brings the day-to-day running of an early years setting into one calm, joined-up place — so you can spend less time on admin and more time with the children.
Learning & development
Learning journeys
Every child's progress, gathered over time into a record parents treasure and Ofsted respects. Always up to date, never a scramble before inspection.
Two-year progress checks
Draft the statutory check from the observations you've already recorded, then refine in your own words. The paperwork starts itself.
EYFS progress tracking
See where each child is across the areas of learning, spot gaps early, and show your impact with clarity.
Running the setting
Attendance & registers
Daily registers, in/out times, and ratios at a glance. The record you need if anyone ever asks.
Wrap-around & funded hours
Track funded entitlement separately from contracted hours, so funding is never muddled with what's billed.
Funding Centre
The complete digital funding workflow, from parent declaration to claim. Parents sign term confirmations on their phone; staff track claim readiness, catch missing information, validate before claiming, and keep audit-ready evidence packs with a full funding history.
Automated invoicing
Invoices built from each child's contract and funded hours, sent on schedule. Optional QuickBooks sync keeps your books in step.
Document signing
Contracts, medical declarations, and consents signed and stored, each frozen exactly as agreed — so what was signed stays what was signed.
Working with parents
Parent messaging
A direct, calm line to every family — updates, photos, and notices, without resorting to a dozen WhatsApp groups.
Daily summaries
A warm end-of-day note for each child, drawn from the day's observations, ready for you to send with a glance.
Translation in 18 languages
Reach every family in the language they read most comfortably, so no parent is left guessing.
Consents & forms
Gather permissions and declarations digitally, with a clear record of who agreed to what, and when.
Confidence & care
Safer Sleep Monitor
Built in and on by default. A live countdown shows staff exactly when each sleeping child is due a check; every check is recorded with the child's position and the room temperature; and parents can see the record any time. Made to help you meet the EYFS September 2026 safer-sleep requirements.
Medication reminders
Set a schedule for any medication and Yenlio alerts staff the moment a dose is due — with the sense to stay quiet after your setting closes or once a child has left. Staff always give and record the dose; parents see a calm, clear history.
Safeguarding support
Flag and record concerns carefully, with the trail you need to act and to evidence that you did.
Incident recording
Dictate an incident the moment it happens; Yenlio shapes it into a clear, complete record.
Ofsted readiness
A running sense of where you stand against what inspectors look for — no frantic catch-up the night before.
Photo privacy
Faces of other children are automatically blurred before a photo reaches a parent, protecting every family.
