Manage staff-to-child ratios with easy rostering
Easily create your own roster template for your childcare business, accounting for specific staff-to-child ratios and unexpected educator absences.
Finish pay runs in minutes, not days
Overwhelmed every time payday rolls around? Employment Hero takes the pressure off by automating the trickiest, most time-consuming parts of payroll.
Even if you’ve got a mix of full-time, part-time, and casual employees all on different pay rates, Employment Hero helps you do it without breaking a sweat.
Say goodbye to manual HR and payroll admin

Take control back in your day with powerful employment software, so you can focus on what matters most.
Set your new hires up for success with a personalised onboarding experience

Create checklists, assign policies, gather police and working with children checks, and share training modules all before their first day.
Keep track of HR and compliance documents in one place

Outstanding policy acknowledgement from your team? Send reminder notifications to your team to get them to complete asap.
Digitally store police checks, working with children checks and first-aid certificates in-platform
Digitally store all mandated checks, legal requirements and certifications for each of your educators so you’re never caught off guard. Plus, get automated reminders in-platform when they’re about to expire.

Your team is your greatest asset and keeping them happy and engaged is essential for providing great care to little minds.
Keep happiness levels high and burnout at bay with our learning and development modules, meaningful employee benefits to help fight cost of living pressures, reward and recognition tools and our EAP add-on service, providing confidential counselling sessions when they need it
