Point-of-service meal counts

Count the meal at the table - once, by child, as it is served.

Teachers mark each child's meal in the staff app while the meal is on the table. The count is checked against the day's attendance and the menu, so a meal that cannot be claimed is caught right then - not at month end.

Counting a meal by child in the ChildWatch staff app
In the staff app

Made for the person serving the meal

One tap per child

The classroom's roster for the meal on the screen - tap each child as they are served.

Allergy prompts

A child's allergies and diet notes show on the roster where the meal is being served.

Works offline

Counts made without a connection are kept on the device and sent when it reconnects.

Never counted twice

A child can be counted once per meal; second meals and limits follow the program's rules.

Infants too

Infant daily meal records pre-filled from the parent's feeding form and the infant menu; staff mark the exceptions.

English and Spanish

Each staff member uses the app in their own language.

A monthly claim with its edit checks
From the table to the claim

The month's counts are ready when the month is

Every count lands in the day's meal records for the office and the sponsor to see. At month end the claim is built from those locked counts, with edit checks run before anything is filed.

  • Daily meal counts by site, classroom and meal
  • Counts checked against attendance and the menu
  • The claim built from the counts - nothing retyped
