On-call booking & staffing OS

Stop filling shifts in group texts.

Book preferred on-call educators or Quick-Blast by SMS — then run schedules, coverage, and credentials in the same staffing OS.

The 6:15am problem

The hole in your morning still lives in Messages.

Most centers already schedule permanents somewhere. On-call coverage is the part schedulers skip — and it's the part that breaks at 6:15am. FillCare fixes that first.

Today, without FillCare

  • An educator texts out at 6:15am — the next hour is phone tag
  • A spreadsheet of subs nobody trusts to be current
  • Waiting on group-chat replies while doors open
  • Ratios re-checked by hand for every swap

With FillCare

How it works

Your sub list, finally built to act.

This is the on-call ops layer most daycare schedulers skip — and the reason managers stop living in Messages.

  1. 1

    Build a live digital roster

    Invite the on-call ECEs you already trust. Keep private wage and license notes educators never see.

  2. 2

    Book with Shift Cart

    Request custom hours across multiple days in one checkout — not a text thread per day.

  3. 3

Staffing OS — shipped today

People, time, credentials, and coverage.

FillCare grew from fixing substitute texting into the system directors open on scramble mornings — and on quiet Tuesdays.

01

People

Permanent and on-call on one roster — with private facility notes and team logins.

02

Time

Permanent weekly schedules, rooms/programs, and Shift Cart windows that match real daycare hours.

03

Credentials

Morning habit

Who’s on today — and where’s the gap?

Premium centers open the coverage board for rooms, permanent schedules, ratio intelligence, and open/close checks. Fill a hole with a blast or book a preferred sub from the same view.
