Sign-in/out with QR Codes


Article Summary

Procare is dedicated to ensuring that each program and their parents have the tools to succeed in any environment. As a way of allowing parents to sign their children in and out from their own personal devices, we have introduced QR Codes.

What is a QR Code?

A QR Code is a unique barcode that allows parents to scan with their personal device. The act of scanning the school's unique code allows the system to track which parent is signing their child in/out without the need of the parent entering their PIN into the kiosk.

How Can I Use QR Codes?

Once your school has enabled the QR Code sign-in, they will have a large code that can be displayed to parents/authorized pickups in several ways:

  • Computer monitor
  • Printed out and posted at the school
  • On the Parent Kiosk

There are two ways you can utilize the QR code sign-in/out:

  • Open your Procare Child Care Mobile App and click the sign-in icon in the top right corner.
