Log book

Where. Sidebar › Children › Log book (on a phone, under Menu), or the Log book shortcut

Note. Your agency may call this page something else, for example “Daily Written Record”. It is the same page, under the name your agency chose; the sidebar, the phone menu and the dashboard shortcut all use that name.

Your licensing log for the day. One record per day; the agency reviews them daily and lists homes that have not filed first.

Ten questions Visitors to the program; changes to the program plan; changes to staff schedules; unplanned children’s absences; changes to the daily menu; fire drill; accident or incident reports; symptoms of ill health needing a parent to be told; serious occurrences or critical incidents; specific care instructions from a parent. Each is Yes or No. Yes opens the follow-up: who visited, what changed, drill time and head count, how many reports and whether a copy went to the parent, and so on.

Agency visits When someone from your agency visits and signs in, their visit shows under the visitors question: who came and when, their notes, and who added them. Only the agency can change it. If you answer Yes, Add to Who visited copies who came and when into your answer. Their visit is also printed on the PDF.

Absences Children you marked absent today are suggested. For each, record the contact attempt: Phone, Email, Text/App, or No attempt.

Submitting The counter shows N of 10 answered. Submit turns on once every question and follow-up is complete; an amber box lists what is missing. Save draft keeps a half-finished day.

Nothing to report Answer No to all ten and Submit. That is the record.

Changing it later A submitted day can be changed and submitted again. Every change after submitting is kept, and your agency can see what changed. The banner at the top says how many times the record changed since you filed it. PDF saves the day as “daily-record-<date>.pdf”.

Sleep checks are not in the log book on purpose; they live on the Sleep tracking page.
