Step 9 of 29 · Your first day
Checks today
Checks today is the board of every room's counts and checks: done, coming up or overdue. A missed check is explained and signed off here.
Watch out: A missed check explained and signed off counts as a miss with a reason; a gap with no explanation stays a gap in the binder.
More about this
Each cell is a check: head counts, sleep checks, the opening check, the playground check, sleep monitors, sanitizing and the closing check, per room. "Record what happened" explains a check that was not done at its time and records it as missed; "Sign off" is the supervisor's or administrator's signature on the explanation, which the close-out counts as a miss with a reason. The legend reads done, recorded late, due, overdue, missed with an explanation, and missed, explained and signed off. The day picker reads an earlier day.
Your centre's words for people and its policies may differ; the screens are the same. The screen is from KeepCount 0.99.162, captured October 29, 2026 in a demonstration organization: everyone in it is fictional. Section numbers are O. Reg. 137/15 (General) under the Child Care and Early Years Act, 2014, read on e-Laws on October 20, 2026. This explains how KeepCount works; it is not legal advice, and the Ministry's program advisors decide compliance.
