Where Yenlio is different
The features most childcare software either buries or doesn't offer — kept premium, not given away cheap.
Ofsted readiness built in
Keep evidence, reports, consents, accident records, medication authorisations and parent acknowledgements organised all year — not rushed together when inspection is due.
Direct Debit, powered by GoCardless
Parents complete a secure GoCardless mandate. Yenlio tracks invoice status, failed payments, queries, refunds and audit history inside your finance workflow. GoCardless transaction fees may apply.
DeepL-powered EAL translation
Support families in their home language across parent messages and key communications, with nursery-controlled usage limits and audit-friendly translation history.
AI assistance where it matters
Draft summaries, parent messages, observations and finance explanations faster — while staff stay fully in control of review and approval. AI never replaces staff judgement.
The Funding Centre
Parents complete declarations and term confirmations from their phone, while staff track claim readiness and keep audit-ready evidence — replacing funding paperwork from declaration through to claim.
All prices are per setting. The 12-month plan is a lower monthly rate on a 12-month agreement, still collected monthly by Direct Debit — not paid upfront. Sign-up and billing are handled here on the web, never inside the app.

Already using Famly? Switching is on us. Your children, contacts, observations (with their photos), attendance and daily records come across to Yenlio and land in the right place — each child's journey, the news feed and the register. We do the heavy lifting as part of onboarding: no spreadsheets, no re-keying, no charge.
