Common questions

Is it really free to try?+

Yes. Creating an account, completing the survey, and generating every document is free. You only pay when you want the preview watermark removed for printing and sharing clean copies.

Do you store details about the children I look after?+

No, by design. The enrolment form prints blank for families to fill in on paper, and anything typed into it on screen is never sent to our servers. Records about children stay between you and the family.

What if the regulations change?+

Templates are maintained against current EYFS and regulator guidance, and your subscription includes updates when requirements change. Always confirm final requirements with Ofsted or your regulator.

Can I cancel any time?+

Yes. Manage or cancel your subscription yourself from Settings, no email required. You keep access until the end of the period you paid for.

I'm in Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland, does this work for me?+

The survey and documents are built around the English (EYFS/Ofsted) framework first. Much of the paperwork overlaps across the UK, but each nation has its own regulator and requirements: the Care Inspectorate in Scotland, Care Inspectorate Wales, and your local Health and Social Care Trust in Northern Ireland. Check anything nation-specific with them before relying on a document.
