Child Care Centres

Supporting Every Child’s Start

Child care centres, daycares, and early learning programs give children a safe place to learn and grow while giving families the stability to work, study, and participate in their communities. Across infant, toddler, preschool, full-day, and part-day programs, educators must balance that care with enrolment, attendance, health records, staffing, licensing, and reporting. This work becomes harder when information is spread across paper files and disconnected spreadsheets.

Mareto brings records, workflows, and reporting together in one configurable platform, built and hosted in Canada, so your team can spend less time managing paperwork and more time supporting children and families.

Enrollment, Intake & Waitlists

Let families register online and move each inquiry through clear stages, from initial contact to enrolment. Configure waitlist priorities using criteria such as age group, requested start date, sibling status, or subsidy priority, helping your team manage offers consistently and ensure no family is overlooked.

Attendance, Ratios & Daily Operations

Record arrivals, departures, meals, naps, and daily routines in a searchable history that supports daily operations and licensing requirements. Configurable dashboards help supervisors monitor ratios and room coverage, while standardized forms guide incident documentation, review, and reporting.

Flexible for Every Program Model

Configure Mareto for infant, toddler, preschool, full-day, and part-day daycare programs across one or multiple locations. Each room, program, or site can have its own forms, workflows, schedules, and requirements, while your team manages everything in one system and adjusts the setup as services evolve.

One Record for Every Child & Family

Keep each child’s profile, guardians, authorized pickups, emergency contacts, allergies, health information, consent forms, and supporting documents in one secure record. Authorized staff can quickly access current information during pickup, mealtimes, or an emergency rather than searching through binders, inboxes, and shared folders.

Track Development & Prove Your Impact

Record developmental observations, milestones, and program participation using the approaches your daycare follows, with progress visible at the child, room, program, or site level. Mareto also brings enrolment, attendance, program, and workforce information together for funder, auditor, licensing, and board reporting, reducing manual reporting and making it easier to compare information across locations.

Canadian Privacy & Data Sovereignty

Mareto encrypts data, stores it on Canadian servers, and gives your organization ownership and control of its information. Role-based permissions, digital consent management, and detailed audit histories help protect sensitive records, while Indigenous-operated daycare centres can establish their own data-governance and sharing policies, including OCAP-aligned approaches.

The Benefits for Your Organization.

  • Spend less time completing paperwork and more time with children. Staff can quickly review allergies, authorized pickups, daily notes, and other essential information, then document observations and incidents without entering the same information across multiple forms. The result is a more manageable end to the day and greater continuity in the care each child receives.

  • See enrolment, attendance, ratios, staffing, qualifications, and open incidents across every room in one place. Identify coverage gaps or expiring qualifications earlier and maintain the records required to support ongoing inspection readiness.

  • Manage inquiries, registration, enrolment, and waitlists through one consistent process rather than across inboxes, spreadsheets, and paper files. Clear stages show where each family is in the process, while consent forms and supporting documents remain attached to the appropriate record.

  • Generate funder-ready reports and program metrics for licensing submissions, board meetings, grant applications, and operational planning. Dashboards provide a consistent view across sites, helping owners understand performance and support decisions with reliable data.
