The four tabs

One household, fully covered.

Home, Log, Time, and Calendar — each does one job exceptionally well, and together they take the admin work out of having a nanny.

Home

Your household, one tap away.

Clock in or out with a single tap and a live timer counts the shift in big, unambiguous digits. The family list right below keeps everyone — parents, nannies, and kids — within reach.

  • One-tap clock in and out, with a live ticker for the running shift
  • See running pay for the current shift before you clock out
  • Tap any household member to jump straight to their details

Daily Log

The whole day, captured.

Meals, naps, diaper changes, and free-form activities — all in one per-child timeline. Daily milk and nap goals show you at a glance how the day is going.

  • Per-kind tabs for Meals, Sleep, Diapers, and Activities
  • Wake-up and bedtime markers anchor the day
  • Daily milk and nap goals with visual progress

Time & Pay

Every shift, accounted for.

Nannies clock in with one tap and watch a live timer count the shift. Parents see weekly, biweekly, or monthly totals — with paid, partial, and unpaid status front and center.

  • Per-nanny pay periods: daily, weekly, biweekly, or monthly
  • Mark a single shift paid, or sweep an entire period in one tap
  • Clock out a forgotten shift right from your phone

Family Calendar

One calendar, everyone in sync.

A shared calendar built for households. Add one-off events or recurring ones, and edit a single occurrence without disturbing the rest of the series — just like the calendar app you already use.

  • Recurring events (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly) with exceptions & overrides
  • Multi-day all-day events for trips and visits
  • Birthdays for everyone in the family appear automatically

And then some

The extras that make it feel like home.

Polished defaults, sensible privacy, and a UI that treats both parents and nannies as first-class users.

Benefits & pay adjustments

Set up PTO, holiday pay, mileage, bonuses, or anything custom for each nanny. Apply them in hours or dollars and they roll into the same pay-period totals as shifts.

Geofenced clock-in reminders

Drop a pin on your home and Banany quietly reminds nannies to clock in when they arrive and clock out when they leave. Radius is yours to tune, opt-in per nanny.

One-tap onboarding

Create a family in seconds and invite your nanny or co-parent with a 6-digit code. No accounts to chase, no setup forms to fill out.

Sign in with Apple or Google

No new password to remember. Banany uses encrypted connections and access controls, and we never sell your data or run advertising trackers.

Designed for two sides

Parents see the full picture across nannies, kids, and pay. Nannies see what they need: their schedule, the parents they work with, and their earnings.

Frequently asked questions

What is Banany?
Banany is a free iOS app that helps families and nannies coordinate childcare. It covers shift tracking and pay, a shared family calendar, a daily log for meals, naps, diapers, and activities, and a benefits catalog — all in one place.
How does nanny time tracking work?
Nannies clock in and out with a single tap. Banany logs the hours and calculates pay from each nanny's hourly rate and pay period (daily, weekly, biweekly, or monthly). Parents can mark shifts paid individually or sweep a whole pay period at once, and admins can clock out a forgotten shift right from the Time tab.
What does the daily log capture?
Meals (with optional milk amount), naps, diaper changes, and free-form activities — together on a per-child timeline or split out by kind. You can set daily goals for milk and sleep and Banany tracks progress with a filling bottle and a glowing moon. Wake-up and bedtime markers anchor the start and end of the day.
Can I share a calendar with my nanny?
Yes. The Calendar tab is shared across everyone in your family. Add one-off or recurring events, edit a single occurrence without disturbing the rest of the series, and the kids' birthdays appear automatically.
How do benefits and pay adjustments work?
Set up benefits for each nanny — PTO, holiday pay, mileage, bonuses, or anything custom. Apply them to a specific day in hours or dollars, and they flow into the same weekly or pay-period totals as shifts so paychecks reconcile to the penny.
Is Banany free to use?
Yes — Banany is free for families with one parent, one nanny, and one child. Banany Premium unlocks unlimited parents, nannies, and children, available monthly or yearly.
How do I add my nanny to Banany?
Create a family in the app, generate a 6-digit invite code, and share it with your nanny. They join your household with one tap — no separate sign-up.
Is my family's data secure?
Yes. Banany uses encrypted connections, secure sign-in (including Apple and Google), and per-family access controls so only members of your household can see your data. We do not sell your personal information or use advertising trackers.
