EZChildTrack is a childcare management solution that makes operating a camp beyond easy. No matter what type of camp you operate, it has a plethora of helpful features that work for directors, parents, and children alike and covers every aspect of what it takes to run a successful program.
We all know activities are the essence of any good camp – they get kids outside and provide the opportunity to make friends, all the while helping to improve their social skills. Summer, church, holiday, and sport camps help build confidence, expose kids to new experiences, and create lasting memories. They have HUGE impacts on children, and you want to make sure they have a blast, experiencing as many activities as possible.
One of the best features of EZChildTrack is calendar-based enrollment. You can schedule all your activities with dates and times, as well as make changes when needed. Parents and children can browse at their leisure, choosing activities that suit their interests and availabilities. If a parent decides to check out a specific activity only to find there are more options, they are more likely to enroll their child in one or more activities.
The calendar-based enrollment feature is just one of many helpful benefits EZChildTrack provides. Here’s just some of what it can do for you:
Parent Portal
The parent portal allows for automatic enrollment and payments, which means parents don’t have to make an extra trip to the center or send paperwork through the mail.

- Pay at the time of registration
- Quickly receive statements and receipts
- Stay in the loop with real-time updates, emails, and posts on bulletin boards
