Preschool Management Software for Singapore
Give parents a window into their child's day — and get your evenings back from daily reports and fee chasing.
If you run a preschool or childcare centre in Singapore, you know exactly where the evenings go: typing the same daily updates into WhatsApp groups one parent at a time, then reconciling PayNow screenshots against a fee spreadsheet to work out who still hasn’t paid this month. Neither of those is the reason you opened a centre.
Skooly is preschool management software built parent-first. It runs daily communication, check-ins and fee collection for more than 4,950 schools and 19,950 teachers across 10+ countries, processing over US$10 million in payments — with PayNow collections at 0% Skooly fees.
We set it up for you, with your real classes and fee schedules.
Built for how Singapore parents pay
Fees are where centre owners lose their evenings. This is the part that pays for the software.
0% Skooly fees on PayNow collections.
Every invoice can carry a PayNow QR code, and Skooly charges nothing on those collections — you keep the full fee. Card payments carry only a 0.8–1% gateway fee.
Parents pay how they like.
PayNow, cards and HitPay are all supported, straight from the invoice or the parent app, with digital receipts issued instantly.
Invoices that chase themselves.
Recurring fee invoices generate on schedule, reminders go out before and after the due date, and payments reconcile against the right invoice the moment they land — no screenshots, no manual matching.
The awkward cases, handled.
Sibling discounts, subsidies, partial payments and automatic late-fee and early-bird computation are built in. You see who has paid and who hasn't in real time.
The parent experience is the product
Parents don't see your admin. They see what reaches their phone.
Daily reports and photos.
Teachers share what each child did, ate and learned, with up to 4 photos per update, straight to the parent's app. Photos stay full-quality for 24 months. The 6pm “how was her day?” conversation starts with the parent already smiling at a picture.
A portfolio for every child.
Artwork, activities and moments build into a child portfolio over time — something parents keep, and the strongest re-enrolment tool a centre has.
Milestones parents can see.
Record assessments and developmental milestones, and share progress in a form parents understand. When report time comes, the evidence is already there.
Announcements without the noise.
Newsletters, reminders and notices go through one app, not six WhatsApp groups — and every parent actually receives them.
Safe, simple attendance
Check-in and check-out in seconds.
A QR or PIN kiosk on a tablet at the door handles arrivals and departures, with a live register of exactly who is in the building. Parents get an alert automatically.
Safety built for young children.
Pickup and drop-off authorisation means a child only leaves with someone the parent has approved. Health checks are recorded at the door, leave applications come in online, and visitor check-ins are logged too.
Reports at every level.
Attendance reporting per child, per class and per centre — ready when parents, staff or licensing officers ask.
An AI copilot for the work nobody has time for
Skooly’s AI copilot reads your centre each morning and tells you what needs attention — the fees that are overdue, the enquiries waiting on a reply — with the facts it checked shown alongside, so you can act on it in minutes instead of digging through reports. It is available as an add-on.
Bring everything across — we move it for you
The reason centres stay on spreadsheets is rarely that they like them. It’s that moving looks like a month of evenings. So we do it: bring the Excel sheets, the WhatsApp groups and the paper register, and on premium plans our team migrates your children’s records and fee schedules for you.
That happens during your free 14-day pilot, before you decide to pay — so what you evaluate is Skooly running your actual centre, with your children and your fees, not an empty demo account.
Your data, protected
Skooly encrypts data in transit and at rest, keeps each centre’s records isolated with role-based access, and is built to Singapore’s PDPA. Parent and child records live in one secure system instead of on paper and personal phones.
