Tottsee for daycare

Tottsee — live child-record software for daycare facilities.

A bottle. A nap. A diaper change. In a baby group, these moments happen quickly, one after another. Tottsee enables your daycare professionals to log them the moment they happen, with a single tap or simply by using their voice. Tottsee is designed to keep your entire team informed in real time, while parents can follow their child’s day live through the free Tottsee Family App. No writing things down twice. No searching for information. Just complete visibility into what’s happening, every moment of the day.

Why Tottsee?

Why daycares choose Tottsee

The daycares we speak to report three recurring challenges: documenting children's activities takes valuable time, staff don't always have a real-time overview of what's happening across the center, and parents want more visibility into their child's day. Tottsee was built specifically to solve these challenges, helping teams stay aligned while keeping families informed without creating extra work.

Too much time spent on documentation

Logging bottles, naps, diaper changes, and observations takes valuable time throughout the day. Staff often have to remember details and complete logs later, creating extra work and increasing the risk of missing important information.

No real-time overview

Important information is often spread across notebooks, whiteboards, shift handovers, and conversations. Without a shared, real-time view of logged activities, teams can struggle to stay aligned on what's happening across rooms and groups.

Parents need more visibility

Parents want to stay informed throughout the day without having to call the daycare or wait until pick-up to find out how things went. They want timely updates on meals, naps, activities, and milestones, while staff need a way to keep families informed without creating extra work.

What you get with Tottsee

Tottsee key features

Tottsee combines daily logging, team communication, parent updates, planning, and reporting in one platform. Every feature is designed to save time, reduce administration, and help daycare professionals stay focused on what matters most: the children.

Log with your voice

Speak naturally and Tottsee turns your words into structured logs. Record activities for one child, a group, or an entire room in seconds, then review and save everything with a single tap.

Based on what was actually logged

Security and privacy

Security and privacy, built in from the start

Tottsee is designed to collect as little data as possible, and to protect everything it does hold.

Minimal data by default

Real names and photos are optional — a nickname and an icon are enough to safely run a group.

Encrypted, EU-only storage

All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, stored on European servers. No ads, no trackers, nothing ever sold.

Every entry is accountable

Each log carries the staff member's name and an automatic timestamp. Parents only ever see their own child — never anyone else's.

Voice is never stored as audio

What you say is turned into text immediately, and the recording is discarded. Only the text you confirm gets saved.

Pricing

Simple, per location

One subscription covers one location, for up to 50 children. Your first month is free, and no card is required to start. Running a second location? That's just a second subscription.

FAQ

Good to know before you start

No, and it is not meant to. Tottsee is the daily-care layer your team uses on the floor: feeds, naps, diapers, medication and signed day notes. Planning, contracts, invoicing and childcare-allowance reporting stay in the system you already have. There is no migration and no procurement project — you can run Tottsee next to it from day one.

One group can be running the same afternoon. We add your children and staff during a 30-minute walkthrough, and the group logs in Tottsee alongside its current day sheets. The first month is free and no card is required, so a location manager can decide without going through procurement.

All data is stored encrypted on European servers. Tottsee contains no ads and no third-party trackers, and child data is never sold or shared. Every entry and day note carries the name of the employee who made it and an automatic timestamp, so your records stay auditable.

Never. Parents are invited by email to a read-only live view of their own child only. They cannot edit entries and they cannot see any other child, group or staff information.

Each location is its own plan: €79.99 per month or €719.90 per year, for up to 50 children. A second location is simply a second subscription, added to your invoice when you create it.

Eleven: Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and Finnish. Every team member picks their own language, including for voice logging, while the records themselves stay shared.
