Built in South Africa, works anywhere

The day, written down once

A nanny logs it as it happens. A parent opens their phone and sees it. Naps, feeds, nappies and hours, in one record you both already agree on.

What it does

Everything that happened, and who said so

No end of day summary from memory. No messages to piece together. One record, stamped with the time and the person.

One timeline, two phones

She taps as it happens. You see it happen. Nobody reconstructs anything at seven in the evening.

Naps and play, on a clock

Start it when they go down, stop it when they wake. Both phones show the same timer running, so there is nothing to disagree about later.

Feeds and meals

Bottles in millilitres, meals with how much was actually eaten.

Medicine and temperature

The dose and the reading, written down at the moment rather than remembered.

Hours and pay

Shifts, rates, overtime and what is owed. One record for both people.

The rest of the household

A shopping list you both add to, a calendar for appointments and days off, and an alert when a nap has run long.

How it works

Three steps, then you forget about it

1

Make a household

Add your child, their date of birth, and the notes a new person should read first. Allergies. What settles them. What they call things.

2

Invite your nanny

She gets a code that works once, for her alone. You decide who joins, and you can remove anyone the moment you need to.

Log the day

She taps as things happen. You open your phone and the day is there, without either of you having to ask for it.

Privacy

A record of your child stays yours

This is the part most apps put in the small print. It is the reason Dayling was built the way it was, so it goes here instead.

Everything you log belongs to one household, and only its members can read it. That is enforced by the database, not by the app being careful about it.
A parent decides who joins. A nanny cannot invite anyone.
No adverts. No tracking. Nothing sold to anybody, ever.
Close your account from inside the app and it takes everything with it. No email to write, no waiting.
Questions

The ones people ask

Does my nanny need her own phone?

Yes, and her own account. That is the point: the log says who recorded each thing, which only works if you are not sharing a login.

Can she see my private information?

She sees the household: the children, the day's log, the shopping list and the calendar, plus her own hours and pay. She cannot see anybody else's pay, and she cannot invite anyone.

What happens when she leaves?

Remove her from the People list and she loses access immediately. Everything she logged stays in the household, because it is a record of your child's days rather than hers.

Does it work outside South Africa?

Yes. Set your country, currency and time zone when you create the household, and the days and the pay follow. It was built here, which is why the pay side takes public holidays seriously.

What does it cost?

Nothing at the moment. If that ever changes, the people already using it will hear it from us first, and not by finding a paywall one morning.
