WHAT IS HELLO KITA?

One shared place for nursery life.

Hello Kita is browser software for organising and communicating in daycare centres. Managers, staff and parents have their own accounts with appropriate permissions. For nurseries in Mönchengladbach, this page shows how messages, absences and records work together. The provider is Wasa Consult, based in Heinsberg. Speak directly with the provider about the features your setting needs.

FOUR ROUTES, ONE SHARED VIEW

Your day sets the direction.

Follow four familiar tasks. The compass shows who contributes information and where it is needed.

ArriveShareCoordinateCater

01Arrive

01

Arrive

Informed before the day begins.

Parents report illness, holidays or another absence directly in Hello Kita, keeping the details available in the system. In Pro, checking children in and out adds a current view of who is present.

Basic: report absences. Pro: record attendance live.

Reporting absences and recording attendance are separate features. Choose the plan that fits the way your nursery actually works.

02

Share

A message reaches the right people.

A post for parents, a quick staff note or a poll: the noticeboard brings messages together with images and PDF files. A separate staff area keeps internal information apart from parent communication.

Included in Basic: messages, noticeboard and polls.

A shared calendar adds dates to your communication. Pro also includes additional pop up messages with optional push notifications.

Coordinate

Make the staffing situation clear.

The staffing traffic light gives a clear picture of the current situation. Move the pointer and add your own wording to explain what the display means for your nursery. The staff area also brings working hours and leave details together.

Basic: staffing traffic light and a dedicated staff area.

Pro adds tasks, duties and staffing needs reports. Discuss the precise scope of shift planning with the provider.

Cater

Lunchtime depends on the details.

Basic lets families view the menu. In Pro, parents can order and cancel meals within the agreed deadline. The kitchen receives overviews by group, allergies and meal type. Credit balances and billing are also part of the extended features.

Basic: view the menu. Pro: orders and kitchen overviews.

Your nursery sets its own organisational rules. Ordering deadlines and credit balances can be discussed during setup.

WHO SEES WHAT?

An account that fits the task.

A message to staff serves a different purpose from a post for parents. Hello Kita uses roles and permissions to keep information assigned clearly within your nursery.

Managers and operators

Organisation, accounts and shared processes sit with those responsible for them. Separate data areas are provided for multiple settings.

Early years staff

Staff have their own area for internal messages, working hours and leave. Pro adds tasks, duties and digital sickness reporting.

Parents and families

Parents see the information shared with them, report absences and maintain details about their child and authorised collectors. Changes are recorded with a timestamp.

AT YOUR DESK AND ON THE GO

Your routines stay. Access becomes more flexible.

Hello Kita runs in the browser. On a smartphone, you can add it to the home screen. Managers, staff and parents use their own accounts, without this page requiring a download from an app store.

  • Browser
  • Smartphone
  • Tablet terminal in Pro

A regular place by the entrance

With Pro, a paired tablet can serve as a terminal for checking children in and out. Discuss setup and a suitable device with the provider.

OBSERVE, RECORD, SHARE

Records with a clear next step.

Not every note is ready for everyone to see. Daily records, settling in and portfolios serve different purposes, each with its own sharing permissions and plan limits.

Basic and Pro

The group diary

Keep a shared record of group life. Core features also include nappy changing records and first aid records.

Pro

Support settling in

Daily entries document the settling in period. Parents only see the content when staff choose to share it.

Create in Pro

Create a portfolio

Pro offers templates, design tools, PDF export and selected sharing with parents. Basic includes viewing in Portfolio Studio.

INVOLVE PARENTS

Information flows both ways.

The nursery is not the only one sharing news. Parents contribute important details too: an absence, a new authorised collector or a change of consent. Hello Kita keeps this information in its designated places.

Ask about parent access

Make access clear

Invitations can be sent through a link or a letter with a QR code. Staff and parents receive separate accounts.

Keep details current

Parents manage details about their child and authorised collectors, including photo, phone number and consent. The time of each change remains traceable.

Choose the right scope

Basic offers German and English. Pro extends the interface to twelve languages. The four languages on this information page are separate from those app options.

TWO PLANS, CLEAR DIFFERENCES

Monthly contracts can be cancelled at the end of the current month. An annual contract is paid in full in advance; cancellation takes effect at the end of the contract year, without a partial refund. The terms confirmed when ordering apply.

The provider offers optional initial setup for €799 and additional storage from €1.99 per month, both excluding VAT. Discuss whether either is useful before ordering.

The source pages do not consistently identify the plan for every shift planning feature. Please clarify the scope you need and any possible plan change with the provider in advance.

FROM FIRST INTEREST TO YOUR OWN ACCOUNT

A prepared start, step by step.

Introducing software starts with clear responsibilities. Use these questions to prepare for your conversation. Agree a specific setup process and any support with Wasa Consult.

  1. Identify your needs

    Which groups and roles are involved? Is communication the priority, or do you also need attendance, meals and portfolios?

  2. Clarify the plan and terms

    Compare features, storage and languages. Ask about contract length, the trial period and optional setup.

  3. Prepare accounts and permissions

    Decide who will take responsibility for each task. The data processing agreement is completed digitally during registration.

  4. Invite staff and parents

    Explain access and your nursery’s rules to everyone involved. An invitation link and a letter with a QR code help you share the details.

RESPONSIBILITY NEEDS CLARITY

Sensitive data. Appropriate permissions.

The nursery or its operator remains responsible for information about children, parents and staff. Wasa Consult processes this data on its instructions. A data processing agreement under Article 28 GDPR governs the arrangement.

Separate areas

Each organisation’s data is kept separate; roles and permissions control access. Health details and emergency contacts have their own permission checks.

Protected transfers and files

The provider’s documentation describes TLS encryption, private file storage and checks on file type and size.

Access and backups

Provider access is subject to the nursery’s approval. Regular backups are provided for at the hosting provider.

Discuss the data protection requirements of your nursery and its operator before getting started. Wasa Consult can answer your questions about data processing and the technical arrangements.
