Fifteen minutes · no card, no contract
Built with a serving RI: twenty years in children’s homes.
Built for the sector’s 3,900 children’s homes. Priced per home, monthly rolling, cancel any time.
Six sections, one file. Every one is something an inspector actually asks for: kept in date, not found on the day.
Six sections, kept in date without anyone standing over them.
See it on a demo homeOpen any member of staff and their whole file is one glance. Green means evidenced. Amber means Staffbook is already chasing it.
This is the screen you open when the inspector says “show me”, and the reason you never prepare for that moment again.
WHY IT FEELS RIGHT
Staffbook is not adapted from HR software. It was built alongside a serving Responsible Individual with twenty years in children’s homes. The screens answer what inspections actually ask, because she kept asking.
Pick a shift, click the cells. Hours count themselves, sleep-ins are marked, and any short day flags itself before the week starts.
Paste the training matrix the home already keeps. Staffbook reads names, courses and dates, and takes over the remembering.
Expired, due soon, who has not signed the new policy. A quiet week sends nothing at all.
Fridge temperatures to fire doors, waking night staff included, rota beside them.
There is no field for a young person anywhere in Staffbook, so trying it never puts a child’s data anywhere new. It sits beside whatever care system the home already runs, holding the staff side only.
Every organisation walled off from every other at the database level.
Every change recorded. Nothing quietly rewritten.
Everything exports to plain spreadsheets, any time you like. Worst case, you are back to Excel with better-organised files.
Documents readable only by your own managers.
Paste it. Staffbook reads names, courses and dates from the matrix the home already keeps and takes over the chasing. About three minutes, nothing retyped.
Monthly rolling, priced per home, cancel any time, and you can export everything whenever. The founding rate is locked for as long as those homes stay.
The evidence pack is the same records you’d show from folders: dated, signed and in one PDF, minus the scramble to assemble them.
One dashboard across all of them: readiness per home, an RI view over the lot, priced per home.
Anything else: ask on the call, or email colby@staffbook.co.uk and you’ll get an answer from a person.
Fifteen minutes, on a call. Bring your spreadsheet if you want the good bit.
No card, no contract. Founding rate for the first homes, locked for as long as they stay.
