Check in and out

Check in at the welcome desk

Check children in for parents, see who’s here, and reprint or remove a check-in.

An admin device is for your team. Use it at a welcome desk to help parents, add new families, and keep an eye on who’s checked in at your location.

The admin Check-in tab listing children checked in to a location

The Check-in tab

The list shows every child checked in to this device’s location today.

  • Switch between All and Returning. Returning shows children coming back after missing the last session, so you can welcome them.
  • Use Sort By (First Name or Last Name) and Order, and Show only children Not Checked Out.
  • Search by name.

Select a child to see their date of birth, grade, who Checked In By, who Checked Out By, and their code.

To work at a different room, use Switch check-in location.

Check a child in

Select Check-in a Child, then either:

  • Pick from the list: search for the child and select Check In.
  • Scan their code: scan the QR code on the child’s own record with Scan Individual Child’s QR Code.

Labels print as usual.

If a child’s grade isn’t in this location’s group, you’ll be warned. You can choose Check In Anyway, and the child appears under the location their grade belongs to. If they don’t have a grade, or no location includes it, you’ll see Can’t Check In This Child: set their grade first.

Add a family

For first-time families, select Add a Person, or let them fill in their own details with Send to Phone. See Walk-in families.

Reprint, copy, or remove

Use a child’s menu to:

  • Print their labels again.
  • Copy their code (Code Copied).
  • Remove Check-in, if they were checked in by mistake. This can’t be undone.

Edit a child

Open a child to edit their name, date of birth, gender, grade, emergency contact, medical information, and medications, then select Save Child.

Switch the device to self-service

Select Switch to Self-Service in the toolbar (on iPhone, it’s in the … menu). To get back, see Get to admin settings from a kiosk.
