Feedback from our centres
What they say about SafetyNest in their centre.
Natalie Davidson
Owner/Operator, Puddleducks Nursery and Preschools
"Puddleducks’ Nursery & Preschools reviewed its Health & Safety Management Systems and went to the market looking for a tool to bring Health & Safety alive in a way that worked within Centre life. We found SafetyNest and it ticked all of the boxes - its ability to link with the Centre's Student Management System increased the ease of recording and, along with the reporting functions, allowed timely recording and reporting of incidents, accidents and observations. Our whole team finds it easy to use and being able to add photos to an accident or risk assists in the communication/understanding between the team and the maintenance team. Having the risk register available to tag into accidents assists in monitoring our risks and their risk rating. We really value our partnership with the team at SafetyNest and their after-sales services is excellent."

Director, Gems Educational Childcare
"SafetyNest has revolutionised our assessment and management of health and safety requirements within our centres. What was once an ad hoc, laborious and inefficient process has now been streamlined, with greater accountability and tracking, and has allowed for targeted training within our teaching team. We used to spend approximately 3-4 hours analysing handwritten H&S data from incident and accident reports from the rooms prior to our monthly management meetings. Now with a click of a button and we have reports and graphical data to refer to.
SafetyNest has enabled us to identify areas that require attention immediately, set an action plan, allocate people responsible, and track patterns over time with specific parameters. Identifying patterns and reoccurring events was difficult due to the ad hoc nature of the data recorded. No more “hunches”- real data to act on and implement change. It has also allowed us to streamline expectation within our teams as well, so as we are all singing from the same song sheet."
John Cook
Managing Director, Happy Hearts ELC
"We implemented SafetyNest to digitalise and streamline our health and safety processes.
The platform is great for real time reporting and showing tangible graphs of accidents/illnesses/check lists at team meetings to monitor if there is an area we need to focus on.
As we have more than one centre the ability to view reports/check-lists etc remotely for compliance is fantastic. Parents also enjoy the ability to get any report emailed to them if they so wish. We use SafetyNest on our iPads and it interfaces with our SMS provider to alleviate the need for double handling of data input making admin that much easier.
Recommend this platform to users wanting to digitalise their business."
Pauline Roberts
Orakei Montessori Preschool
"Kia ora we are Orakei Montessori Preschool in Auckland. We have used SafetyNest to store kaiako safety check information for the last 3 years.
We also use SafetyNest to document tamariki accidents or illnesses, it links in with Discover software so when parents come to pick up their child that are asked to sign the accident form on-line once viewed.
We also use SafetyNest for our daily site check for both indoors and outdoors. Another feature we also use on SafetyNest is to log our Risk and Substance Register.
We had an ERO Review since we have been using SafetyNest and the Reviewers had no issues with how we were documenting and storing our safety information.
If I have a problem SafetyNest are always quick to respond back with a solution.
Thanks SafetyNest all our kaiako enjoy using your easy system."
Feedback from Parents
Anne-Marie Longthorn
Parent
"SafetyNest is super easy to use and makes it easy for parents to find out about any accidents that have happened throughout their child's day, even when the teacher who dealt with it is unavailable. It is great to have a record of what happened and when to support the communication of these events to us as parents."
