What's NOT Included (We're Honest About It)
We believe in radical transparency. Here's what you'll need to handle separately or pay extra for.
1. Custom Integrations or API Development
What it means: If you need custom integrations with your state reporting system, accounting software, or other specialized tools.
Why it's separate: Most centers don't need custom integrations. Standard features work for 95% of customers.
What IS included: Standard integrations with common tools (when available) are included at no extra cost.
2. Hardware (Tablets, Printers, etc.)
What it means: Childmindi works on devices you already have (phones, tablets, computers). We don't sell hardware, so you'll need to provide your own devices.
Why it's separate: Most centers already have smartphones, tablets, or computers. You don't need to buy anything special.
What you need: Any smartphone (iOS 14+ or Android 8+), any computer with web browser, optional tablet for check-in station.
3. Compliance Consulting or Legal Advice
What it means: While Childmindi helps you stay organized and audit-ready, we don't provide legal advice or compliance consulting for state licensing requirements or other regulations.
Why it's separate: Every state and center has different requirements. We provide tools; you ensure compliance with your specific regulations.
What IS included: Organized record-keeping tools, CCPA-aware privacy practices, security and data protection.
Your responsibility: Meeting state licensing requirements, legal contract review, consulting with compliance experts.
