INIn Ratio, All Day, Without The Whiteboard Math.
Workforce management for childcare and early learning centers — classroom schedules that hold state ratios through breaks and pickups, with clean records for licensing visits.
Schedules That Hold Ratio All Day
Ratios shift with every age group, teachers need breaks, and one sick call at 6am can put three classrooms out of compliance. Childcare scheduling is ratio math, all day long.
Tommy does the math with you. Set the coverage each classroom needs by age group, assign teachers and floaters directly or publish open shifts for qualified staff, and use skill requirements — CPR, CDA, background-check status — on every assignment.
Rules based shift trading with automatic or manual approvals keeps classrooms covered when life happens.

Records Ready For A Licensing Visit
When a licensor walks in, your staffing records should answer for themselves. Tommy’s time clock — kiosk at the front desk or personal device with selfie verification — captures who was in ratio, when.
Clock in/out questions handle room assignments or health checks while timesheets build themselves.
Approved hours flow straight to payroll, keeping labor costs visible against enrollment.
