The parent handbook. The enrollment packet. Incident reports, sign-in sheets, medication logs, the tax receipts parents chase you for every February. CubbyKit asks you friendly questions once — your rates, your hours, your policies — and prints all of it with your name, your logo, and your colours on every page.
✓ No account ✓ Nothing uploaded — it never leaves your device ✓ $29 once, not $30/month
You got into childcare to be with kids — and somehow became a small business owner with a paperwork problem. Licensing wants forms. Parents want policies in writing. Tax season wants receipts. So you buy a $25 template bundle on Etsy, open it in Canva at 11 PM… and it's still sitting in your downloads folder.
Nine short sections — your program, rates, sick policy, holidays. No blank pages: every hard policy has a professionally written starter you just tweak. Autosaves as you type, on your device.
One click typesets everything: a handbook with a cover and contents page, branded enrollment forms, daily report sheets, posters, receipts. Or save them as PDFs to email to families.
Hand new families a handbook with your name and colours on it. Update your rates next September and reprint in minutes — your answers stay saved, forever.
Everything below is generated from the same nine sections — filled in with your program's details and printed under your letterhead.
A typeset booklet with cover page, welcome letter, and contents: your rates, payment rules, sick policy, discipline approach, holidays, and the fine print — the document that makes awkward conversations unnecessary.
Six branded forms families sign once: child enrollment, emergency contacts & authorized pickup, health & immunization, medication authorization, photo consent, and an enrollment agreement that pulls in your actual rates.
The everyday stack: daily report sheets parents love, incident/accident reports, sign-in/sign-out sheets, a medication log, plus kitchen allergy and emergency-info posters with your address pre-filled.
Year-end child care receipts with your program details pre-printed — hand them out in January before parents even ask. Three per page, ready to fill and sign.
How do you tell parents — kindly but firmly — that late pickup costs a dollar a minute? That a feverish kid stays home? That you take real vacation? CubbyKit's hardest questions come with a ✨ starter policy: professionally written, warm-but-firm wording you insert with one click and edit until it sounds like you.
Sick policy, biting, late payment, termination, photo consent — the fifteen policies every provider dreads writing are already drafted.
Daycare apps want you to upload your families' details to their servers and pay $20–40 every month for the privilege. CubbyKit takes the opposite position:

CubbyKit covers the documents licensing bodies most commonly expect from home programs — a parent handbook, enrollment and emergency forms, medication authorization and logs, incident reports, and attendance records. Requirements vary by state and province, so check your local checklist; because every policy is your own words, adapting a document to a local rule takes minutes, not a redesign.
CubbyKit is a document preparation tool, not legal advice. The agreement page reflects the policies you wrote and gives you and your families a clear, signed record of what was agreed — which is far more than most home programs have. For specific legal concerns, a local small-business or family lawyer can review your printed handbook quickly and cheaply because the drafting is already done.
Nowhere. The builder runs entirely in your browser; your answers are saved in your browser's local storage on your computer and are never transmitted. There's no account and no server that sees your program's details. You can fill everything in with your internet disconnected.
The kit fits any small childcare arrangement. Every label and policy is your own text, so a nanny share can call the "provider" a nanny, and a preschool can rename chapters — the structure (handbook + signed packet + daily forms + receipts) is the same everywhere.
Two safety nets: your printed documents are the real product and live on paper, and the unlock includes one-click encrypted backups — a file locked with your passphrase that restores everything on any computer. Your license key from your receipt re-activates on any device, any time.
Because paperwork is a thing you finish, not a service you rent. You pay once, print your kit, and update it every September for free. We'd rather you run your daycare than pay us monthly.
