The homes

The homes: one table with each home's children here, last record, status, agreement, household screening, last visit and what is to follow up.

The homes: one table with each home’s children here, last record, status, agreement, household screening, last visit and what is to follow up; the most urgent first.

More about this

Above the table, four figures: the homes open, the children signed in (with how many count once the providers' own children under four are added), the sleep checks late and the homes with no record for an hour. Then a tile for each of the agency's rows that concerns homes (provider agreements, household screening, the register of homes, the home visitors and what the home inspections found). The table lists every home, the most urgent first: past its limits, a sleep check late, a head count due ("Head count due since …", past the agency's interval), then no record for an hour, in that order. "Show" narrows it to "Needs a look now", "To follow up", "Open now", "Closed today or not opened" or "Closed homes".

The columns Today and Status are two of its columns, not two screens. Today is the home's state now and the day's count; Status is the home's own status (for example Active). Agreement is the provider agreement (ss. 9(2), 27(1), 75(1)); Household is how many people are cleared; Last visit is the date and who made it; "To follow up" gives what is open, with "Act" when it is overdue and "Soon" when it is within the warning window. A home's name opens the home's page; its Today pill opens its day. The homes' days follow the provider agreement's days.

Your agency'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.
