ONE DAYCARE • ONE SHARED PICTURE

The care is personal. The operating picture should be clear.

Directors should not have to piece together family balances, room activity, staffing, care notes, pickup records, and program schedules from disconnected tools. Diadem's product direction brings the day's essential work into one calm, role-appropriate experience.

These illustrative concepts use demonstration information to show the intended Diadem direction. Select any image to inspect it at a larger size. Availability and production details are confirmed through a guided walkthrough and written scope.

WORKING LAUNCH MODEL

Start with collections. Add only what your daycare needs.

The model keeps the recurring Core software subscription at zero for the daycare, then aligns total cost with enrollment and selected operational modules.

Final availability, payer mechanics, processing terms, integrations, and implementation responsibilities are documented in a written proposal.
ONE-TIME$500

Daycare integration

Initial organization setup and guided configuration for one daycare location.

PLATFORM FEE$8/child/mo

Per enrolled child

Applies monthly for each enrolled child; payer flow is confirmed in the proposal.

PLANNED OPTIONAL MODULES

Extend Diadem around the programs you actually operate.

Before care, after care, faith-centered learning, camps, and enrichment can be added without turning Core into an oversized package.

02
$150per daycare / month

A DISTINCT SOLUTION • A CONNECTED FUTURE

Diadem stands on its own—and can grow into the school community.

A church-run daycare may need a focused solution for early care. A Christian school may want daycare, extended care, camps, and K–12 family life to connect over time. Diadem keeps the daycare experience purposeful while preserving a path to the broader CROWN environment.

DIADEM QUESTIONS

What daycare leaders should know before a walkthrough.

Who is Diadem designed for?

Diadem is designed for church-operated daycares, Christian-school infant and toddler programs, and faith-based early care organizations that want daily operations and family stewardship to reflect their mission.

What is included in Diadem Core?

The working launch model centers Diadem Core on tuition and fee collection. The daycare pays no recurring monthly Core software subscription; the one-time integration cost and per-child platform fee still apply.

How does the $8 platform fee work?

The working model uses an $8 monthly platform fee for each enrolled child. The responsible payer and payment flow are confirmed in the daycare's written proposal.

Are the optional modules required?

No. Extended Care, Learning & Faith Curriculum, and Camps & Enrichment are planned optional modules. A daycare selects only the capabilities included in its written scope.

Are the dashboard images final?

No. The images show the intended Diadem experience with demonstration information. A guided walkthrough and written implementation scope—not a marketing image—define contracted capabilities.

How does Diadem relate to CROWN?

Diadem is a distinct daycare solution. It can stand on its own for a church-run daycare or connect with the broader CROWN environment when a Christian school wants a more unified family journey.
