As your childcare center keeps growing and welcoming more little adventurers, you might find the need to create some extra rooms. 

 Here's how to make that happen: 



  1. Login to the system, go to the top menu bar, and click Services.

  1. List of All available services appear. Then, click on the desired service id number on the left column of the page.
  1. Lollipop Children's Centre Service page appears. Then, click on the Rooms tab.

 

  1. Enter the specific details for the new room. Refer to     Room for reference on some of the fields. 

Enter the name of the room.

 

  1. Select a colour from the selection.  

    Adding different colors to each room enhances the readability of the room graph on your home screen. Using colours, it is simple to distinguish one room from another at a quick glance. 

 

  1. If applicable, select an Age from the drop-down menu.
    Note: The Room type dropdown menu is relevant for staff timesheets. Staff signed in to non-contact and unpaid break ‘rooms’ are not counted towards ratios ‘across the service’ calculations.

 

  1. Select Belongs to the dropdown menu.
    Note: Only be used if 2 rooms are linked together, otherwise this would not be used.

 

  1. Enter Educator to Child Ratio. Arrows up/down on the right can also be used to increase/decrease the value. (Add this information for using the Ratio Calculator)

 

  1. Leave the rest of the tick boxes unless applicable. 

Click Save to save all entries.
Note: Only tick Notify parent upon sign in, if this is being used.

              Only tick “inactive” if closing a room permanently. 

           Only tick Public Room if families were to be able to select the room when completing the    enrolment form.

The added room now appears in the Rooms list.
