Licensing compliance made easy

Forget overstuffed folders and handwritten labels—instantly generate dynamic attendance signature reports at the click of a button. Download, print, and share reports at any time.

Convenient Payments

Spend less time on billing and more time with your little ones. Create automatic invoices and custom payment plans; seamlessly collect payments through autopay in the Parent App.

Flexible, real-time communication

Update your staff and parents instantly with push notifications for announcements and chat messages. Share photos and videos to record memories that last a lifetime.

Quick and smooth sign-in/out

Whether running a car line or a traditional pick-up and drop-off, save time with our attendance tools. Parents sign right from their phones, as well as coordinate playdates that temporarily authorize carpools with other families.

Customizable digital documents

Say goodbye to loose papers and incomplete forms. Upload a copy of your document and create fillable fields with our Documents tool. We make required documents—from enrollment and physician forms to media waivers and emergency contacts—hassle-free.

Trusted by hundreds of educators. Why our customers love Playground

Playground simply makes my life easier because I know exactly where all my information is. I no longer have to go through files or wonder where a teacher put a sign-in sheet.

Tamar Andrews,

Director

Temple Isaiah Preschool

I've recommended Playground to half a dozen other preschools. We absolutely love how it lets parents sign in and out contactlessly without entering the building.

Chanel Benton,

Director

Detroit Learning Academy

Playground has been game-changing for us. The platform made our sign-in lightning fast and we no longer have to make sign-in/out sheets every week. And the team provides friendly support, quick and helpful service — always.
