22: COVID Friendly Digital Solutions in Child Care
This pandemic has allowed child care owners, directors, teachers and staff to shine. Child care is often chaotic, busy, always changing and sometimes full of germs..which is exactly how the past 8 months have been. Child care centers have to not only provide some normalcy for the children when it is so important, but also have adapted to the ongoing changes thrown their way.
Our friends at Smartcare, are exactly the same. We have partnered with Smartcare for some time and are always impressed by their passion for the industry and their amazing customer service, not to mention their extensive cloud-based program that helps centers all over run smoothly.

They have created even more digital solutions to adapt to the changing pandemic best practices. Listen in as Lora and Whitney share some solutions Smartcare has implemented to make their platform even more flexible and learn how Smartcare and the industry has tried to be proactive instead of reactive.
