Lillio
Lillio is childcare management software for early childhood programs, combining center operations, family engagement, curriculum, and professional development. Center tools include staff scheduling, classroom ratio tracking, attendance records, customized reports, waitlist management, and online registration. Billing features cover customized tuition plans, automated invoices, payment tracking, auto-pay, and subsidy management. Its curriculum offering includes research-based lesson plans and activities aligned to standards across North America through FunShine Express. Lillio Academy provides on-demand professional development courses for early childhood educators. The service is available on the web and through iOS and Android apps. Lillio says the app is free for parents whose children attend participating centers, while centers pay for adoption. Pricing for center subscriptions is custom based on center needs and size. Lillio says it operates a security program to protect customer private data. Support is available by phone and email Monday through Friday, 8am–6pm ET.
