A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Let’s clear
things up.
Something else on your mind?
Send us a question
Which states does Centerly support?
Centerly currently supports Ohio childcare centers. Its built-in requirements and inspection workflows are tailored to Ohio. Support for other states is not available yet.
How does the free trial work?
Your 15 days start when you create your organization’s workspace. No credit card is required. To continue, the workspace owner can subscribe in Billing for $149 USD per organization each month. No charge before your trial ends. Your first charge date is shown at checkout. If you don’t subscribe, workspace access pauses when the trial ends. Your records are kept so you can subscribe and pick up where you left off.
Do I have to move everything over at once?
No. Start with one staff or child file and add the rest as you go. You add records individually, so you can organize them at your own pace.
Can families send me documents?
Yes. Create a document or signature request, then share its link by email or message. The recipient can respond without a Centerly account. You review their response in Centerly.
Does this replace our other childcare software?
Centerly focuses on compliance records and inspection preparation. Keep using your existing systems for tuition billing, attendance capture, payroll, and everyday family communication. Centerly helps organize the evidence and follow-up around those records.
Does Centerly guarantee we’ll pass an inspection?
No software can guarantee an inspection result. Centerly helps you see recorded gaps, follow up on missing items, and assemble your inspection evidence. Your center remains responsible for reviewing records and meeting the requirements that apply to it.
