KidKare pioneered online claiming and has provided innovative software solutions for State Agencies, CACFP participants, childcare providers and Sponsors for over 30 years.
At-Risk (ARAS)
We have expanded our offerings to support At-Risk After School programs with an
upgraded experience for submitting their
Meals & Attendance + Claims.
SFSP
Summer Feeding Program features include but are not limited to counts, inventory, delivery tracking and more.
Financial Admin
Receipts and Expenses are vital to upstanding business operations. Our Parachute platform covers robust financial operations.
KidKare Campion
One of our KidKare software was able to see a significant annual cost-saving of $1,000,000 by transitioning from paper enrollment forms to our eForms feature. With KidKare you can manage all Enrollment & Income Eligibility forms electronically which helped this customer consolidate 20 Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) into a single position at their home office. This is just one of many powerful features built in KidKare, designed to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of your Food Program management.
KidKare Interactive Demos
In an effort to make experiencing the software as seamless as possible, rather than navigating the live account independently, we’ve developed demo links that will prompt you on how to complete sample tasks.

SFSP & ARAS
Given the nature of the program, SFSP’s meal counter is designed for the free flow of children throughout the site, while providing guardrails for compliance. Your CBS team can choose to have counts restricted to point of service and can limit which types of data can be freely input versus tallied.
