Case Study: Bellissima Nursery streamlines invoicing and payments with Connect Childcare

Bellissima Nursery saves hours each month with Connect Childcare

Bellissima Nursery, a childcare provider in Beckenham, faced challenges with its time-consuming and error-prone manual invoicing process as the business grew. The nursery sought to reduce the hours staff spent on creating invoices, correcting mistakes related to grant payments, and chasing parent payments. They partnered with vendor Connect Childcare to find a solution using its nursery management software.

Connect Childcare implemented its software, which featured SAGE integration and First Capital Cashflow for direct debits, to streamline Bellissima's financial operations. The solution automated and simplified invoicing, making it easy to recalculate invoices, handle deposits, and accurately allocate grants. This saved the nursery hours each month on payments processing. Staff also used the iConnect tablet software for daily tasks, freeing up more time to dedicate to child development. Bellissima reported that the switch was successful, with staff finding the software functional and the onsite training excellent.
