Childcare and education licence tracking

Early learning services and outside-school-hours care cannot have an educator on the floor with an expired Working with Children Check. Services also keep first aid, anaphylaxis management and CPR current. Datesly watches those dates and reminds you before a roster is published around an expired check.

What this industry tracks, and how Datesly helps

  • WWCC / Blue Card

    Working with Children Check in NSW, Victoria and several other states; Blue Card in Queensland.

  • First aid in education and care (HLTAID012)

    The current first aid unit designed for education and care settings. Some educators hold HLTAID011 instead — record whichever certificate they actually have.

  • Anaphylaxis management and CPR

    Education and care services commonly keep anaphylaxis training and HLTAID009 CPR alongside first aid. CPR is typically refreshed annually.

This list describes documents employers often record. It is not legal advice about what a person must hold.

Renewal cycles worth recording

WWCC validity is set by each state — a NSW check is generally valid for five years. First aid units do not print a single legal use-by date; Safe Work Australia’s model Code recommends renewing first aid every three years and CPR every 12 months. ACECQA and your state regulator set the qualifications a service must have available — Datesly records the dates you enter, it does not interpret those rules for you.

How Datesly helps

Store each educator’s WWCC, first aid, anaphylaxis and CPR dates. Datesly emails you before they lapse. Growth and Scale can email the educator to upload a renewal, and you can print a report if an authorised officer asks who is current.

Questions

Can I track Blue Cards as well as WWCC?

Yes. Use the WWCC type or a custom type and note the state. The important thing is the expiry date you record.

Does Datesly tell me which first aid unit my service needs?

No. It does not give regulatory advice. Record the certificates your educators actually hold and the dates on them.

Where is the data stored?

In Australia, on Supabase in Sydney (ap-southeast-2).

Get started with Datesly

A$29, A$49 or A$99 a month. Monthly, no lock-in.

Datesly tracks the dates you enter. ABN checks validate the number and flag cancelled ABNs you hold. Victorian building practitioner numbers are checked against the BPC register published on DataVic (updated weekly), and QBCC licence numbers against QBCC data on Queensland open data (refreshed daily). Automatic card checking is only available for NSW White Cards on Scale when that official API is connected. For everything else, guided verification opens the official government checker so you can record the result; Datesly does not scrape those registers. Datesly does not decide which licences a person must hold, or give legal, regulatory or compliance advice. You stay responsible for your own records.
