Why childcare educators love Eequ

Shining testimonials

Yuvanis

Eequ has been transformative for our organisation. It’s streamlined our booking, monitoring, reporting, and admin processes, allowing us to showcase our professionalism and efficiency to funders and users alike. The platform continuously evolves based on user feedback, almost as if it were bespoke for our needs. Features like ‘Ticket Availability’ show that Eequ is always one step ahead. Our service users love the event calendar, and the platform’s user-friendliness has made it indispensable. Eequ is truly one of the best infrastructure elements we’ve ever implemented. Kudos to the team—keep up the fantastic work!

Mango after school club

Eequ has not only streamlined my business but also enhanced my life. Before Eequ, I spent hours on invoices and weeks chasing payments. Now, I save precious time, and maintaining professional relationships with clients is much easier. Advertising is a breeze too - no more handing out expensive leaflets; I just share my Eequ page link on social media, and clients come rolling in. The app is constantly improving, offering tools I didn’t even know I needed. It’s user-friendly for both myself and clients, and the small service fee is well worth the savings and benefits. I’m incredibly grateful for this service and confident the app will continue to thrive.

TYDOL - Kids activities

Eequ has streamlined and massively simplified the booking process for me. I am also really grateful to the team for their responsiveness. Thank you all very much!

Wonder years

We have loved your service. It makes it so easy for parents to book sessions and for new parents to find our services. For us, it makes all our admin so much simpler and reduces our paperwork drastically. One of the best things that happened for us. Thank you!

Mission driven

Eequ Understands the Wraparound Care Programme

The Wraparound Care Programme, funded by the Department for Education (DfE), is a strategic response to the need for more childcare options around the school day. By partnering with schools, local authorities, and independent providers, this funding aims to make more spaces available and to extend the hours from 8 am to 6 pm. The programme will signpost parents to schemes such as Tax-Free Childcare and Universal Credit to help parents manage the costs. The programme funding is a much-needed kick-start that aims to grow a sustainable ecosystem of well-balanced supply and demand for childcare, enhancing the overall well-being of children and families.

Despite its many advantages, the Wraparound Care Programme faces challenges in terms of implementation. Schools, providers, and local authorities can work with Eequ as a technology partner to overcome these hurdles and future-proof the programme:

Awareness and Engagement: Eequ uses advanced SEO tools to promote opportunities around the clock. Automated features such as email confirmations, reminders, and online schedules for each child keep parents organised.
