The screens

How centers and sponsors use BloomCare

From enrollment to the monthly claim, all in one place.

  1. Families enroll.

    Enrollment and income forms are sent, signed and saved.

  2. Centers run the day.

    Attendance, meals and menus, recorded in the classroom.

  3. Sponsors oversee and claim.

    Every center's records and monthly claims in one place.

Enrollment and eligibilityCenters

Parents sign from any device. No account or paper needed.

The center emails each family a secure link to their enrollment and income eligibility form, in English or Spanish. Once it is signed, the PDF is saved to the child's record.

  • Each link opens only that family's form
  • The signed PDF is saved to the child's record
  • The eligibility category is worked out from the income form
  • Forms in English and Spanish

Renewals and expirationCenters

Every form has an expiration date, and BloomCare tracks it.

Each child's Forms tab shows which forms are current, when they expire and what is missing. The children list shows who still needs to sign.

  • Signatures due shown on the children list
  • Missing forms flagged for each child
  • Renewal forms for returning families

Attendance and mealsCenters

Attendance and meals, recorded in the classroom

Choose the classroom and the day, mark who is present, then record breakfast, lunch, snacks and supper for each child. All it takes is a tablet.

  • Breakfast, lunch, snacks and supper
  • Daily menu, menu calendar and food list
  • Allergy alerts next to each child

Sponsor oversightSponsors

Sponsors see every center's claim on one screen

Monthly Claims shows each sponsored center's claim status and claim PDF. With View as Center, a sponsor can open a center's screens without sharing a login.

  • Every center's claims, month by month
  • Withdrawn centers kept separate
  • View as Center, with no shared passwords

Claims and reportsCenters and sponsors

Claims built from daily meal counts

Meals marked each day are reflected accurately on the claim worksheet, the 12-month claim summary and the weekly meal counts.

Center records and staffCenters

A separate login for each staff member

Directors add staff and choose what each person can view and edit. Center licenses and inspections are stored with their dates.

Why it works

Built around how centers and sponsors work

BloomCare is built on hands-on experience with how CACFP sponsors operate: what they need to oversee, and what centers need to keep simple. Directors, cooks and teachers at real centers helped shape every screen.

Simple by design
Each screen has one job, with no long menus or settings to learn first.
No retyping
Families fill in and sign their own forms, so staff only need to review them.
Problems show early
Missing forms and expiring documents are flagged as you go, not at claim time.
One login for every center
Sponsors switch between centers or view any center exactly as its director does.

11,000+ forms signed online, not on paper.

Questions from centers and sponsors

Have another question? Email support@bloomcare.com.

Who is BloomCare for?

Child care centers and the sponsoring organizations that oversee them in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). Centers manage families, forms, attendance and meals, while sponsors oversee claims and compliance across all of their centers.

How is BloomCare billed?

BloomCare is a subscription, billed monthly or yearly. Email support@bloomcare.com for pricing for your center or sponsor organization.

Do parents need an account?

No. Each family receives a secure email link that opens only their own form, which they can complete and sign on a phone, tablet or computer.

Is it available in Spanish?

Yes. Parent forms, signing pages and staff screens are available in English and Spanish. Staff choose their language in their account settings.

Can a sponsor see all of its centers?

Yes. A sponsor login shows every sponsored center, with its monthly claims and status. Sponsors can also view any center exactly as its director sees it.

Can we move our existing centers over?

Yes. We handle the move for you, setting up each center, its staff logins and its families, so your centers start with their records in place.

Can we control what each staff member sees?

Yes. Center directors create staff logins and choose what each person can view and edit.

What do we need to install?

Nothing. BloomCare works in any up-to-date web browser on a computer, tablet or phone.

How is family information protected?

All data is encrypted in transit, access is limited by role, and signed forms are kept in secure, access-controlled storage. See our Privacy Policy for details.
