Looking for a Cheqdin alternative?
Cheqdin is strong on bookings, registrations and payments. If you want EYFS observations, live staffing ratios and a full compliance suite alongside, Taylormade Care covers more of the early-years side.
Cheqdin is known for bookings, online registration and payment collection. Taylormade Care leans into the early-years side — observations, EYFS tracking, live ratios and compliance — with invoicing and parent updates by secure link, all at one flat price.
Why settings choose Taylormade Care
Bookings, sessions and fast registers
Set up sessions, manage who's booked in, and take a fast daily register you can rely on for safeguarding.
EYFS observations and learning journal
Photo observations tagged to the EYFS areas, milestone and 2-year-check tracking, and a PDF learning journal.
Staff rota, live ratios and the SCR
Build the rota, check EYFS ratios and qualification mix live, and keep a proper Single Central Record.
A full compliance suite
Accident, incident and medication logs, policies, risk assessments and fire drills — date-stamped and inspection-ready.
One flat price, no per-child fees
£9.50 or £30 a month for the whole setting, however many children attend.
Cheqdin is a good fit if online registration and integrated card or Direct-Debit payment collection are your top priority — that payment-collection piece is on our roadmap rather than live today. For everything else around running an early-years setting, Taylormade Care brings it together.
Common questions
Does Taylormade Care collect parent payments like Cheqdin?
Not yet — you can send invoices, record funded hours and add a Tax-Free Childcare reference, but in-app card and Direct-Debit collection is on our roadmap rather than live today. If that's essential right now, it's worth weighing up.
What does it do that Cheqdin doesn't focus on?
The early-years side: EYFS observations and learning journals, live staffing ratios with qualification-mix checks, the Single Central Record, and a full safeguarding and compliance suite.
