Über Lillio
Tablet-basierte Kinderbetreuungssoftware, die Eltern digitale Berichte, ein Online-Portfolio und Echtzeit-Updates der Aktivitäten ihrer Kinder bietet.
I love that I get a window into what our child is up to daily integration of video and photos plus meals. Let’s me know my son is on the right track.
I don’t think there is something I dislike about the software/app.

Great daycare software
Sehr gute Software für die Eltern und die Kinder
Kommentare: Sehr zu empfehlend
Vorteile:
Ich finde, dass HiMama eine sehr gute Software ist, für die Eltern (können Ihr Kinder jeder Zeit beachten) und für die Kinder auch.
Nachteile:
Ich habe gar keine Nachteile herausgefungen.
Great dashboard for education/daycare
Kommentare: Very positive, one of the best solutions overall.
Vorteile:
Ease of use and simple feature set for monitoring childcare.
Nachteile:
Mobile app wasn't as Android friendly as other options.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Saves me time and money
Kommentare: Overall I feel that this is one of the best things that I have done for my business. Attendance reports are easy to view and print off, I can easily access and share menus, calendars, messages, and alerts. I can't imagine ever going back to the way that I used to do things.
Vorteile:
I absolutely love this program. I went from taking hours filling out reports to just minutes. It has greatly increased the communication between myself and the parents of children in care. I also feel that it looks much more professional than hastily scribbled notes passed on to parents at the end of the day.
Nachteile:
Price was a big obstacle for me. Having to pay in advance rather than monthly meant I had to rearrange finances to make things work and I know that this is a major issue when I reccomend this program to others.
Not a lot of other options, and pretty decent
Kommentare: I have had my children in daycare for a number of years, and our site started using Lillio about two years ago. It makes it easy to communicate and receive notifications from our dayhome, and also gives me peace of mind that my children are being taken care of.
Vorteile:
I like that I quickly receive information about my child at daycare, and have a simple way to communicate with the caregiver.
Nachteile:
The app is quite slow to load, especially when viewing video files that have been posted. Having multiple children at a location is also more difficult to manage than it needs to be.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Great preface, rough interface
Kommentare: It started out a little odd but once we got it up and running we were happy until we started seeing all the weird quirks. You can’t put in a student our parents address we put them in notes which was odd, the billing aspect is awful you can’t connect families, it started out a little odd but once we got it up and running we were happy until we started seeing all the weird quirks. You can’t put in a student our parents address we put them in notes which was odd, the billing aspect is awful you can’t connect families, no immunization record keeping. It’s fit for businesses that do not have to keep specific record keeping for tax purposes .
Vorteile:
Looks great, easy for parents to use, checking in and out is easy. Easy to create tuition plans.
Nachteile:
All the behind the scenes billing is awful. Nothing makes sense for bookkeeping purposes.
Great and convenient app!
Kommentare: Overall the app is great, I haven't had any difficulties or frustrations with it!
Vorteile:
I like that it's very user friendly and intuitive.
Nachteile:
When you scroll down on the feed it would be great to list the names (dates) of the reports versus the actual reports. Like sharing a list of names and when you click on it it expands to details. This way it would be easier to find a report you're looking for quickly and I believe it's a better user experience.

Great asset to our childcare program
Kommentare: I think this is a great asset to our program, and I could not imagine having to go back to the pen and paper method of daily reporting. My parents and staff love this program!
Vorteile:
I love how easy HiMama is to use, and that it was very simple to teach my educators to use as well. It has a great parent app, and our parents love to be able to check out their children's reports each day. It has really increased our level of communication and customer service.
Nachteile:
It seems that parents are not able to download picture directly off that app as we seem to have some parents that email asking for us to send them the pictures directly. I haven't looked in to this yet, but it a common request I get.

HiMama Daily Reports
Kommentare: We have been using HiMama for a couple years now and have loved it. Our parents love the pictures and information they receive. We love that we’re able to add the standards to our lessons so our families can see what we are working on with their children. The standards are already programmed into the software.
Vorteile:
We love this program at our childcare center. They have more than stepped up to help us during COVID and families being home. They now provide daily lessons to send to our families, more data features to store temperatures, and they support team is beyond compare.
Nachteile:
We really have no complaints with this program. If we could make suggestions we would suggest the ability to attach more than one attachment to class emails and being able to send a little longer video through the app.
Love this app
Kommentare: I love how easy this app is to use. At a touch of a button I can find out when and what my 2 year old ate, how long he napped, when he had his diaper changed, and photos of his activity throughout the day! I also like that I can see these updates in real-time. Our previous daycare used a different app that wouldn’t allow us to see his daily updates until his teacher signed him out at the end of the day.
Vorteile:
Ease of use, real-time updates/entries, clear photos, and way communication with teachers
Nachteile:
I don’t have a con for this app. It provides us with everything we need.
daycare check-ons
Vorteile:
It's great for quick check on my kids in daycare and messaging all teachers and the supervisor. Also, it has profile for each kid that I can switch between them.
Nachteile:
for some reason it stopped giving me notifications and I have to refresh the app every time to see if there is any update on food, etc. Also, the food options are just none, some, most and all, which makes it hard to track how much exactly they ate.
helps with kids status and keeping parents updated
Vorteile:
It's easy to send quick messages to the teachers at my kid's daycare center and check on to see what he has been doing each day.
Nachteile:
I wanted to download my kid's profile picture but I didn't have access to it.
Ups n Downs
Vorteile:
It is easy for parents and they seem to like most of it. I like being able to go back and look at daily reports, activities, and notes.
Nachteile:
I don't like that families are not grouped together-example for a family with four children, I had to put the parents info in four different times. I do not like that I can not choose how my children are listed-my old software gave me the choice of by name, age, class etc. I don't like that the food report isn't listed by age, which is how I need it to be. I don't like that parents can not see a yearly calendar that I set up . I don't like that children are not listed by last name at check in and families have to either type in the search bar or scroll to find all kids-and if they do use the search bar you either have to backspace to remove what they put in or you only get a partial listing
comprehensive child tracking system
Vorteile:
HiMama is an outstanding platform for daycare providers, preschools and early childhood education centers. It offers a variety of tools that make the daily operations of these organizations more efficient, streamlined and effective.One of the standout features of HiMama is its comprehensive child tracking system. This allows teachers to keep track of the children's activities, meals, naps and milestones throughout the day.

The platform offers a variety of tools that allow teachers to send updates, photos and videos to parents, and vice versa. This keeps everyone in the loop and ensures that the children are receiving the best possible care.The reporting and analytics tools offered by HiMama are also top-notch.

Nachteile:
One of the main issues with HiMama is its cost. The platform can be expensive for smaller organizations and the pricing model may not be suitable for all budgets. This can be a barrier to entry for some organizations and limit their ability to fully utilize the platform's capabilities.Another issue with HiMama is its user interface. While the platform is user-friendly, some users have reported that it can be difficult to navigate and that certain features are not as intuitive as they could be. This can lead to a learning curve for new users and slow down the adoption process.Finally, some users have reported that the platform can be slow and laggy at times, which can be frustrating for those trying to complete tasks quickly and efficiently. This can disrupt the workflow and cause delays in completing important tasks.In conclusion, while HiMama is a comprehensive platform for daycare providers, preschools and early childhood education centers, it does have some drawbacks in terms of cost, user interface, and performance. Organizations should carefully consider these factors when deciding if HiMama is the right platform for them.
Great app to have
Kommentare:
This app has improved our communication with our parents/guardians. It has saved a lot of administration time in keeping track of children's hours, staff hours and communicating to parents regarding their child's progress, needs, and programming. Parents are feeling more connected with what is going on in their child's learning and development. Parents and extended family members enjoy the photo journal updates.
I always feel like HiMama are listening to their members as they are always implementing new features and improvements to their app.
Vorteile:
The versatility of the HiMama tools and how it helped us with record keeping and connecting with the parents, staff and children with their progress and developmental needs. It has helped tremendously on lessen administration time with invoicing, attendance record, and staff time records. It also have features such as the meal calendar, event calendar and programming chart allowing more connection with the parents and staff.
Nachteile:
We wish there was like a parents chat group that could be developed within the app. I know there is probably a video teaching parents how to use the app but I would say a high percentage of parents do not realize the capability/features of the app. For example, we had a parent who thought if she commented on a picture it was going to mass produce to everyone in the daycare. I guess there should be more incentive in learning about the features of the app.
Easy Great App
Kommentare: I've enjoyed the available updates and being able to have something available to me that allows me to plan for my child. As a parent, its nice to know that its already written down and available to you at any time vs having to remember information when you get home from daycare like "did she poop today?", "when was her last bottle/diaper change/nap?"
Vorteile:
HiMama allows you to see what and when your child has been up to all day - diapers, meals, and naps are so important to helping keep an infant on schedule and HiMama does a great job. Plus we get to see pictures posted of our little one throughout the day! I appreciate having the reports at the end of each day that tell me if we're low on supplies and just generally how her day was.
Nachteile:
I don't see her activities (tummy time, play time) and I'm not sure that's an option as part of this app (I also don't know if its already available). It would also be nice to know her mood throughout the day (happy, crying, just fine) so I know how my kid is going to be when I'm going to get her...or if I should try and get her a little early if she's had a tough day. These things are not obviously life changing as I already get the most important information already through the app.
Mother- User
Kommentare: Being a first time mom, the thought of leaving the most important thing in my life with complete strangers to care for my child was super stressful. Was she happy? Is she eating? Is her diaper being changed? Did she take a nap? Did she have a good/bad day? If I could only see her I would know how she is doing. The HiMama app relieves all these questions for me. I love that all this information can be updated to me. The care givers can let me know what they had to eat, when they took a nap, toilet breaks and (my favorite) the ability to send photos of activities and games they are playing and even videos! I love being able to see her face throughout the day. Another great feature is the messaging. The caregivers are able to send supply needs and even tell me if my daughter is feeling ill or had a fall and can send the incident report to me. This is a fantastic platform. Thank you.
Vorteile:
I love that the care givers can send me photos and videos of what my daughter is up to (activities, crafts, trips). I love being able to see her face and see that she is happy.
Nachteile:
I can honestly say that I have not experienced anything that I think could use some improvement on. It does what I need it to do, and I have had all positive usage experiences with the HiMama app.
Game changer for our Child Care!
Kommentare: The Sales team and customer service are AWESOME! My sales rep still checks in to make make sure we do not need anything. The webinars and help center are so in depth and helpful! They have Educators on staff to make sure it is teacher friendly! I think that in itself speaks very highly for the company!
Vorteile:
Hi Mama is very easy to learn and train staff on. It is set up so our teachers and staff are saving time in entering information and using their time to be with the children! Their messaging system is easy to use and very fast! We were able to both text and email parents when snow hit and we needed to close early. Our Parent and Teacher communication have grown considerably!
Nachteile:
There are a few options we really need like CACFP collecting. As a child care using the Food Program it would save me a ton of time weekly by having a printable report. I also really do not like the check in process. It is a list of names which is a problem for some parents. We have a group of Foster children that should not be on a list seen by everyone so we are currently not able to use this function. I really wish they would let parents enter a 4 digit code and check in all their children at one time. This would also allow security and no list to scroll through!
Love getting updates throughout the day
Vorteile:
I enjoy getting updates on my kiddos throughout the day. It's nice to be able to reference the reports on HiMama to see what my children ate, when they slept and what activities they did at school that day. The teachers even send us pictures! My boys are just starting to talk so it's helpful that the HiMama app includes what kinds of things they were working on so that I have a better idea of what they are trying to tell me about. We also really like the messaging system because you can send a message through the app or by email. It helps keep the lines of communication open and that is reassuring.
Nachteile:
Sometimes the reports finalize at strange times. I'll get a message 5 hrs after my kiddos have been picked up that says the report is now final. I'm not sure if it's something the teachers are doing differently on some days but it's just odd.
Thank You HiMama
Kommentare: HiMama has been very well received at all three of my Little Sprouts Learning Centers. Parents are thrilled to see their children interacting in class and feel reassured to see their child settled into the program just minutes after leaving the classroom. This was especially appreciated by our new parents, as well as parents whose children were starting school for the first time. Prior to HiMama, families received a monthly newsletter with photos, information on our monthly theme, reminders, birthdays and important upcoming dates. Now with a click of a button, the classroom teacher can send this information to parents anytime. The ability to keep updates current has helped parents ensure they are not missing important news, are less likely to forget upcoming events, and also allows them extra time to plan and prepare. Parents find the program extremely handy as they can speak directly to the teacher through the HiMama message system. Often times moms and dads are on the run and not always able to chat during drop off and pick up, or throughout the day. HiMama keeps everyone connected, by allowing parents to send a quick message to the classroom teacher at their convenience. Customer service at HiMama is very good and parents have found Caroline very efficient and helpful should they come across any issues. As the owner of Little Sprouts I feel the overall customer service has been excellent right from the beginning, and appreciate Ron's support in setting the system up with me back in February 2014. Areas I would like to see improved would be to have the option to send a message to a specific group of families. Currently the options are one family or the entire classroom. I would also like the option to put music to the photos so that a DVD could be created of the child's school year. Access to all the school photos would be a wonderful option as currently we have to go into each child's report to see the entire group of class photos. Although the classroom journal does show a few pictures, I would like to be able to see all of these photos as a running stream. Thank you to Ron and the staff at HiMama! You have made a wonderful difference to the parents and families at Little Sprouts, and I can't thank you enough!
Dad checking in on my kids
Vorteile:
I love seeing pictures of my kids, seeing what they are doing for the day. Its useful to know if my 4 year old took a nap during the day and if my 2 year old is eating his lunch.
Nachteile:
Not as much a con, more of a what I would like to see for improvement. I would like to see the app integrate with a scannable check in or check out for my children. A barcode or a rfid tag when we are checking them in and checking them out. Our daycare currently uses a sign in/out log. I would also like to see more pictures of my children. This might be accomplished with reminders to the teachers when a picture of a child hasn't been taken for a while. Another useful item would be an integrated live feed from the daycare. I can log into my ring cameras at home anytime I want, shouldn't I be able to do the same with my children?
Why Hi Mama works for our preschool and families
Vorteile:
The details and ability to click without having to write everything in detail.
Nachteile:
I wish I could click the names of kids under fluids or toilet, for example, and add the times and detail for each right at that moment without having to upload each entry one at a time. For example, if it is 2pm and we have not had the chance to enter two feedings and three diaper changes for 11 kids, it would be quicker if we could click on the item like toilet then click on the child, then add all three times in, rather than one at a time....it would be faster for the user.
Peace of mind
Kommentare: I am really happy With this childcare app . My now 4 year old daughter was at other center for 1 year and there was lack of communication what she did during day as teachers keep changing shift . That’s no longer an issue . HiMama is organized and makes child observations and activities easy
Vorteile:
I love the photos I get on a daily bases. It gives me peace of mind during the day and also allows me to talk to my 4 year old daughter about what she learned during the day when she comes home. For my 1 year old this app is also perfect as I can see what she ate or did during her day. It also gives me flexibility to talk her class teachers during day if needed.
Nachteile:
I think the app is sometime slow usually downloading a video Also I wish there was easy way to save pictures videos or any other information like reports etc
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Great way to connect with child’s school day and teachers
Kommentare: I really like the ease for parents to use. It’s a great tool for communicating. Some things should be tweaked for staff and admin use, but overall, a great resource.
Vorteile:
I like that it’s similar to social media
Nachteile:
Not being able to attach more then one file to a message
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Easy Peasy
Kommentare: Love the app both parents and staff are very satisfied.
Vorteile:
LOVE that the parents are able to see what is happening through out the day as well as at the end of a day receive a report. This cuts down on the time parents stand around talking and then details are also not left out.
Nachteile:
Can’t search old messages. If you are looking back at previous messages you have go back through all the messages you are unable to search a persons name.
My Experience With Lillio
Vorteile:
It makes attendance management easy and it is affordable too. The tool is affordable and effortless to use.
Nachteile:
Using Lillio has been effortless and no issues.
