Early childhood education and care (ECEC) provider the The Creche and Kindergarten Association Limited (C&K) this week announced their intention to continue partnering with childcare management software (CCMS) provider Kidsoft, renewing their subscription across their portfolio of kindergartens and childcare centres for an eighth and ninth year.

“C&K have been successfully using Kidsoft as our childcare management software tool and payment gateway since 2013 across all of our centres, and we’re excited to continue our partnership. The Kidsoft platform supports day-to-day management efficiencies and assists with CCS requirements - simplifying and streamlining our operational processes,” C&K CFO Mark Stones said.

C&K has provided not-for-profit ECEC services via its network of more than 350 kindergarten and childcare centres throughout Queensland for 113 years.

Kidsoft CFO Di Girvin said Kidsoft was “delighted” that the partnership would continue, saying it has been “a positive partnership since day one with both organisations developing over this period of time”.

Kidsoft is Australian owned and operated, and Ms Girvin said feedback from its customer base was integral to the success of the product, and its ability to deliver functional features tailored to the needs of the ECEC sector.
