Attendance tracking

Know who’s in every room,
every minute

Real-time check-in and check-out tracking tied to your licensed room capacity. Staff mark attendance in seconds. Parents see status instantly.

Built for the way BC centres track attendance

Not a generic sign-in sheet. BrightCare attendance is designed around licensed rooms, provincial capacity rules, and the real drop-off/pick-up workflow.

Daily roster with batch marking

Mark entire rooms present, absent, or not-yet-arrived in one click. Staff save minutes every morning during drop-off rush.

Real-time check-in & check-out

Timestamped check-in and check-out with automatic status transitions. Parents see live attendance status in their portal.

Room-based capacity views

See attendance organized by licensed room. Each room shows current headcount vs. licensed capacity with utilization percentage.

Parent attendance history

Parents view a weekly attendance grid for each child with check-in/out times, present/absent indicators, and week-by-week navigation.
