Hey! We already know each other!

KidKare and Minute Menu CX, your current Food Program software, are made by the same company. We want to give you the option of using KidKare without re-entering all of your old data from Minute Menu CX, so that we can save you a ton of work when you decide to switch. We’re still working on that feature, but it’ll be available soon. Now that we know you are interested, we’ll email you when it’s ready. If you can’t wait, we understand! We think KidKare Food Program is exciting, too. Just use a different email address to sign up with a new, empty account and explore during the free trial!

Thanks for signing up!

Frequently Asked Questions

I am a single-site center that does not participate in the food program. Can I still use KidKare?

Independent centers who do not currently participate in the food program and would like to should try to find a sponsoring organization. If you participate in the food program with a sponsor, your sponsor can give you KidKare for free so your center staff can easily log meals and attendance. Contact your sponsor for more information.

More information on finding a sponsor can be found here.

Can I process and manage child enrollments in my center?

Yes. The enrollment, re-enrollment, and tracking features in KidKare increase the accuracy of your participation records. All of those features are included in KidKare eForms.

Is KidKare Food Program compliant with my state's laws?

KidKare maintains compliance with all state laws regarding Food Program claim calculation. Each claim goes through over 100 edit checks and notifies you of any claim errors you have. Food Program integrity and compliance is one of our top priorities.
