OWNA is our preferred operating system and for good reason. OWNA supports our commitment to transparency and strong communication with families, while also streamlining the way we operate day to day. Through OWNA, we can easily:

• Provide up-to-date fee information and break down your Child Care Subsidy (CCS)
• Notify families quickly of any changes to funding or enrolment details
• Share important updates and posts directly to individual parents, specific rooms, or the whole centre
• Keep you connected with your child’s learning journey in real time

Once you are settled in, by simply turning on notifications, families can stay up to date with their child’s day at the centre. Key features include:

• View daily routines including meals, nappy changes, and sleep times
• Access the weekly menu prepared by our on-site chef
• Book casual days when available
• Join the waitlist for days that are currently full
• Mark your child as absent directly through the app—no need to call or email
• Secure payment processing, including a clear breakdown of daily charges, applied
• CCS, and your out-of-pocket cost
• Meals, sleep checks, and nappy changes
• The current menu
• Learning experiences, milestones, and centre news

*we will of course always be happy to help over the phone or in person should you not feel comfortable using OWNA. Prior to your families first day, we will give you guides and talk you through the features of the app in person.
