Nembørn is most helpful as a fully integrated childcare management platform that covers pedagogy, parent communication, occupancy planning, invoicing, HR, and administration in one system.
We use all core Nembørn functions on a daily basis. Occupancy and enrolment management is a key part of our work, including contract mangement, placement of children - short‑ and long‑term group planning as well as the invoicing funconality. Nembørn gives us a clear long‑term overview of capacity and activity, which is essential for operational and strategic planning.
The LGH Teacher App is central to our pedagogical work. It allows us to track daily notes, attendance lists, and manage multiple digital forms such as familiarisation documents, incident reports, observations, and development reports. Communication with parents is easy via the chat function and works very well for everyday organisational topics (e.g. nappies, food schedules, short updates). The internal language support for our three working languages (German, English, French) is extremely practical.
We also use the LGH Photo App, which ensures secure handling of children’s photos and videos in full compliance with data protection regulations. It provides a safe, trusted environment for storing and sharing media with families.
For employees, we use the LGH@Work App, where staff can consult work schedules, request vacations and absences, upload medical certificates, and manage other HR‑related topics. We additionally rely on Nembørn for workforce planning, overtime tracking, worktime reports, absence registration, and recruitment via the candidate journey board, where external candidates can directly apply for open positions.
The biggest upside of Nembørn is that it centralises all childcare, HR, communication, and planning processes into one coherent platform. It reduces administrative workload, supports long‑term planning and transparency, and ensures secure, professional communication with both families and employees - making daily operations significantly more efficient and structured.

Because Nembørn is a very comprehensive platform covering many areas (pedagogy, occupancy, HR, communication, finance, and recruitment), the main challenge is the initial complexity. New users typically need some onboarding time to fully understand all features and workflows, especially when using the system across multiple apps (Teacher App, Photo App, LGH@Work, admin modules).
Some processes also require clear internal guidance and standards. To use the system efficiently, teams need alignment on how documentation, forms, and communication are handled; otherwise, functionality can feel overwhelming at first.
The biggest downside is that Nembørn is not a “lightweight” solution. Organisations that only need one or two functions may find the platform more extensive than necessary. You really see the value when using the full ecosystem.
Additionally, because the system is highly structured and compliance‑focused, certain workflows can feel less flexible than manual or ad‑hoc tools, especially when quick changes are needed. Customisation sometimes requires coordination rather than instant adjustments.
That said, these downsides are closely linked to Nembørn’s strengths: structure, data protection, scalability, and long‑term planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
