The problem

Sunday morning is no time for guesswork.

Kids ministry runs on trust. When check-in is slow, codes are scribbled on tape, and allergy notes live in a binder, lines back up — and parents start to wonder who's really watching their child.

Lines at the door

Slow kiosks back up the hallway while families miss the start of service.

Who can pick up?

A code on a sticky note is the only thing between a child and the wrong adult.

Allergies in a binder

A peanut allergy nobody saw because the note never made it to the room.

Self & roster check-in

Families check in their way — in seconds.

Parents tap a kiosk, scan a phone, or a volunteer checks the whole roster from a tablet. One household, every kid, one tap — no re-typing names you already know.

  • Kiosk, phone, and volunteer-roster modes
  • Whole-household check-in in a single tap
  • Recognizes returning families instantly

Secure label printing

A matching code on the tag and the parent's claim.

Every child's label prints with a unique pickup code; the guardian holds the matching claim. No code, no child — and the whole exchange is logged for the audit trail.

  • Unique guardian-match security code per check-in
  • Child label + parent claim ticket print together
  • Every pickup recorded on the audit log

Allergy & medical flags

Critical care notes follow the child into the room.

Allergies and medical needs print right on the label and surface on the volunteer's roster — so the person caring for the child sees what matters before it matters.

  • Flags print on the tag and show on the roster
  • Authorized pickups and medical notes on the record
  • Pulled straight from the child's People profile

The payoff

Parents relax. Volunteers fly through Sunday.

When check-in is fast and provably safe, the whole morning feels lighter — for families and the teams serving them.

Provably safe pickup

Guardian-match codes mean only the right adult leaves with the child.

No more lines

Seconds per family keeps the hallway clear and the service on time.

Allergies never missed

Critical flags ride the label into the room, every single time.

Right ratios, always

Live ratios and capacity warnings keep rooms safe and staffed.

Attendance you trust

Accurate, real-time counts feed straight into your reports.

Volunteers empowered

Simple tools let any volunteer run check-in with confidence.

One source of truth

Connects to the rest of Synq

Check-In reads from the same person record as everything else. A child's allergy from their People profile, the household from Giving, the roster from Groups — it's all one source of truth, and every check-in writes attendance back to the timeline.

Make every Sunday safe, fast, and calm.

See Check-In running on your church's own rooms and families. 60-day free trial, concierge migration included.
