NZ Made in New Zealand, for New Zealand ECE

Always know
you're compliant.

Oversite keeps your ratios, funding returns, staff certificates and audit evidence up to date as you go, so the answer is on screen when someone asks rather than in a spreadsheet somewhere.

Built around the rules you work to

  • Schedule 2
  • Schedule 1A
  • RS7
  • EAV
  • Reg 28
  • ECE Census
  • Pay parity

For centre-based and home-based services alike.

Ready before the deadline is

Funding returns come round three times a year, the census once, and an ERO review whenever it does. Oversite keeps the paperwork for each one up to date as you go, so none of them turn into a scramble.

  1. February

    RS7 funding return

    Attendance, rolls and teacher salary attestation, ready to submit when you are.

  2. June

    RS7 funding return

    The same again, with last period's figures still where you left them.

  3. October

    RS7 funding return

    Plus the annual ECE Census, with the figures already gathered in one place.

  4. Any time

    ERO review

    Hazard registers, incident records, staff certifications and coordinator visits, each with its audit trail intact.

Everything in one place

Administration and the educator side are part of the same system, together with the health, safety and property work that often ends up living somewhere else.

Light or dark, whichever suits the room

Every screen is built for both, and it's each person's own choice rather than an organisation-wide setting. Drag the handle to see the same roll call either way.

The same Daily roll call in dark mode, with identical content on a dark background. The Daily roll call in light mode, listing children booked today with their booked hours against actual sign-in times.

Case study

Eleven centres, one record per child

A Waikato kindergarten association ran attendance in one system, funding returns in a spreadsheet and staff records on a shared drive. Census week took three people a fortnight. It now takes one afternoon.

We did not buy this to save money. We bought it so that when the Ministry asks a question, the answer takes ten minutes and I believe it.

Work out what it costs for your sites

All prices exclude GST. Twelve-month agreement, billed monthly, with nothing collected upfront. Every module, onboarding, training, data migration and the seven-year record retention the Funding Handbook requires are included; there are no add-on fees.

The questions your board will ask

The practical questions, answered up front, so you have what you need before the conversation even starts.

Where does our data live?
On established enterprise cloud infrastructure, with your organisation's records kept separate from every other organisation using Oversite. More on the security page.
What about the seven-year retention rule?
Covered. The Funding Handbook asks you to keep records for seven years, and that is part of the price rather than an extra.
What happens if we leave?
You can export your data at any time, and we'll help you do it. There is no exit fee.
Who answers when you call?
The people who built it. Support is included for every customer at every size, 9am to 6pm, Monday to Friday.
