# Childcare online Booking (CoB) Discussions

Childcare Online Booking (CoB) is a cloud-based childcare booking and management system designed for organisations providing breakfast clubs, after-school clubs, holiday clubs and other wraparound childcare services. The software allows parents to register children, book childcare sessions, manage existing bookings and make payments through a mobile-friendly parent application. Childcare providers use the administrative system to configure sessions, manage availability and capacity, maintain child and parent records, and monitor bookings and attendance. Staff can access live attendance registers, record children's arrival and departure times, and capture electronic signatures. The system supports recurring childcare contracts, ad-hoc bookings, waiting lists, invoicing, account balances, payment tracking and configurable booking rules. It also provides tools for managing discounts, childcare collection arrangements, transport and bus capacity. Additional functionality includes recording medical and allergy information, emergency contacts, authorised collectors, safeguarding records, consent forms and incident reports. Communication features include parent notifications, news updates and information displayed through the parent dashboard. CoB supports organisations operating from a single location or multiple childcare settings, with administrative controls and reporting covering bookings, attendance, payments and operational activity. Version 2 is a redevelopment of the original system, which has been used by childcare providers for over 14 years.
