Earshot

For family childcare

Say it once.
The day writes itself.

You are holding a toddler and a lunch plate. You are not typing. Earshot listens, puts each note with the right child, and turns the day into something parents can read.

Built in a working family childcare home, on real days, with fourteen children in the room.

One sentence, four children

This is the whole interaction. Everything below the line was logged without touching the screen.

You said

Nora's down for her nap. Theo and Ivy both had the lentil soup, and Jonah needs more diapers tomorrow.

Speak the log

One sentence covers four children. Names, times and events land where they belong while your hands are still full. No form, no dropdown, no phone propped against a shelf.

Sleep checks that hold up

California wants an infant checked every fifteen minutes and the check written down. Earshot keeps the clock, records what you observed, and alarms on a locked phone — not just when the screen is on.

Parents hear from you

One summary per child at the end of the day, written from the log in your own voice. Nothing sends until you've read it and said so.

Nothing for parents to install

Their child’s day arrives as an email. No account, no download, no password to reset at seven in the morning — the reason handovers fail is that they ask something of people who are already late.

  • Written from the log, in your voice, not a template
  • Naps, meals and changes as figures they can scan
  • Anything you asked for that day, at the bottom
  • Replies land in your normal inbox
Nora’s day — Wednesday, 2 September
Ate: snack, lunch
Slept: 12:40–2:35 PM (115m)
Potty: 3

Nora arrived mid-morning and settled straight in, eating her snack and then a good lunch of lentil soup with olive bread and apple slices. She slept nearly two hours and woke up ready for popcorn and the garden.

Could you bring: a spare sweater

The log should not cost you the evening.
