Betreuungsampel
Betreuungsampel is a web-based platform developed to support daycare centers in managing temporary staffing shortages and reduced childcare capacities. The application enables childcare administrators to quickly initiate demand requests and gather real-time feedback from parents regarding their childcare needs.
Through SMS and email notifications, parents can respond using a simple traffic-light system that indicates whether they require a childcare place, can provide home care if necessary, or are able to fully manage childcare independently. The platform automatically evaluates responses and allocates available slots using a transparent credit-based mechanism designed to ensure fairness across participating families.
By automating communication, demand collection, and placement decisions, Betreuungsampel significantly reduces manual coordination efforts while improving transparency for both daycare staff and parents. The platform demonstrates how digital solutions can enhance operational efficiency and community collaboration in educational and childcare environments.
