A look at the planner

This is what the day plan looks like.

Screenshots of the planner with its sample data: a fictional Kita with seven groups, on a day when one group is short of staff.

The day view of the planner on a laptop: a grid of the groups across the hours from 7 to 16, one group marked red as understaffed from 8 to 12:30, next to it the recommended steps, and below the group cards with children, staff and ratio.
The same day plan on a phone: the staffing per hour for all groups, with the understaffed hours in red.

What you see

  • Hours across, groups down: green means staff to spare, yellow exactly enough, red striped understaffed.
  • On the right, the steps Kima recommends for the short hours, each to apply once the colleague or family has agreed.
  • Below, one card per group with the children present, the staff on duty and the ratio.
  • On the phone, the same plan, one section below the other.

What Kima does

The day at a glance, decisions in minutes.

Sick calls, holidays, late arrivals: every morning the plan changes. Kima shows what that means for each group and each hour, and what helps.

Understaffing per hour

For every hour, Kima compares the children present with the staff on duty and shows exactly where the ratio is not met.

Concrete recommendations

Move a colleague between groups, let children join another group, or ask families to keep a child at home: Kima proposes the steps and shows what they change.

Data stays on your device

Kima is a local-first web app: child and staff data never leave your device and can be encrypted locally. No account, no cloud.

Works in the browser

Open the app, add it to the home screen if you like, and plan on the laptop in the office or the tablet in the group room.

How it works

Three steps to the day plan

  1. 1

    Set up your Kita once

    Groups, opening hours, staff with their working hours, children with their attendance times. Nothing is uploaded.

  2. 2

    Enter the day

    Who is sick, who is on holiday, who comes late or leaves early. Takes a minute.

  3. 3

    Read the plan and act

    Kima shows the staffing level per hour and group and recommends steps. You decide what happens.
