Everything you need to run your nursery. One connected system.
Designed for UK nurseries by people who have run them.
See the whole nursery — from the first enquiry, through every day, to the wider view.
Follow the nursery from a family’s first enquiry, through the working day, to the wider view seen by managers and owners.
It starts before a child ever arrives
A family enquires, shares the days they need and books a show round. The nursery can keep track of preferred days, age group and the hoped-for start as the family moves towards a confirmed place.
Then the day happens — and stays in step
Theo arrives at 8:42. The register, room attendance and ratios reflect who is present. Through the day, practitioners record care and learning while managers can see the attendance, room numbers and staffing information they need as the day moves.
And the whole picture comes together
Behind the nursery day, funded hours, invoices, balances and payments are managed together. Owners and group leaders can see attendance, occupancy, funding and performance across one nursery or several, without rebuilding the picture manually.
When the information connects,
the nursery runs more clearly
Record the day as it happens
A family enquires, a child arrives or a practitioner records care and learning as part of the normal nursery day.
Make information useful elsewhere
Information recorded in one area can support the other parts of the system that need it.
Understand the nursery more clearly
Managers and owners gain a clearer view of attendance, staffing, funding, occupancy and performance without rebuilding it manually.
One system at the centre

Nursery in a Box sits at the centre of the Early Years Group’s day-to-day operation as the organisation continues to grow.
Built around the way nurseries actually work
Dave and Milesh ran their own nurseries before building Nursery in a Box. That experience shaped a system around real rooms, real staffing pressures, funded hours, family communication and the realities of the nursery day.
