Where Yenlio is different

The features most childcare software either buries or doesn't offer — kept premium, not given away cheap.

The Funding Centre

Parents sign declarations and confirm each term on their phone. Staff see every funded child's eligibility, build the termly headcount in the council portal's own format, and follow a guided checklist to enter each claim — with a record of exactly what was submitted.

Direct Debit, powered by GoCardless

Parents complete a secure GoCardless mandate. Collections wait for the parent's review window, pause if they query an invoice, and reconcile themselves inside your finance workflow. GoCardless transaction fees apply.

Ofsted readiness built in

Keep evidence, policies, consents, accident and medication records organised all year against Ofsted's evaluation areas — and give an inspector time-limited, read-only access when they arrive.

Fire & emergency roll call

Account for every child, member of staff and visitor in drills, real emergencies and lockdowns — even with no signal. Included in every paid plan, because safety is never a premium.

Photo privacy for every child

Photo consent purpose by purpose, a privacy check on every post before it's shared, and family downloads that blur every other child. Face recognition is available with a parent's explicit consent.

AI and translation where it matters

Draft observations, assessments, summaries and parent messages faster, and translate into 23 languages with DeepL. AI suggests; your staff review and decide.

Switched on per setting

These sit outside the plan price and are set up for your setting on request.

  • SMS Text-message invites and urgent message escalation, charged by usage.
  • BrightHR Import staff and see who's clocked in, for settings already on BrightHR.
  • Photo privacy check & face recognition People detection on every post, and recognition with explicit parental consent — each set up with your setting.
  • Protected photo downloads Families download photos of their own child with every other child blurred; automatic face finding is set up with your setting.

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.

Moving from Famly? We'll migrate your data — free

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.
