Getting started

What is MyLittleWorld?

A single web app for running a daycare or early-learning center day to day — attendance and check-in, daily reports, tuition billing, staff scheduling, and parent messaging, replacing a mix of spreadsheets, paper logs, and separate apps.

Do I need to install anything?

No. MyLittleWorld runs in the browser on any phone, tablet, or computer — for staff and for the families you invite. There's nothing to download from an app store.

How is this different from Brightwheel or other platforms?

Same core idea — attendance, reports, billing, messaging in one place — at a flat monthly rate based on your center's size instead of per-child fees that grow against you. See our full pricing on the Pricing page.

Can I try it before paying?

Yes. New organizations get a 14-day free trial with the full product, so you can set up your classrooms and try attendance and daily reports before committing.

Using MyLittleWorld

Can teachers and parents both use it?

Yes. Staff (Owners, Directors, Teachers) get the full admin app; guardians get their own portal scoped to just their children — daily reports, messaging with staff, and billing for their family.

How does check-in work?

Staff can check children in and out from the app directly, or set up a location-specific QR/PIN kiosk for a self-service check-in board at the door.

Can I have more than one location or classroom?

Yes — organizations can have multiple locations, each with its own classrooms, business hours, and staff assignments, all under one account.

Billing & account

How much does it cost?

$29.99/month for up to 10 active children, $49.99/month for 11–60, or $114.99/month for 61+, with 20% off any tier when billed annually. Full breakdown on the Pricing page.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, from Settings → Billing, with no long-term contract required. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period.

Is my data safe?

Your data is isolated at the database layer per organization, encrypted in transit, and payments are handled by Stripe — MyLittleWorld never stores full card numbers. See the Security page for details.
