SafeNest
For childcare centres and schools in Singapore

Give your teachers their afternoons back.

When a parent raises a concern, someone has to sit through the CCTV. SafeNest finds the moments of physical contact in that footage, so your teacher watches minutes instead of hours. A person still makes every call.

How it works

From a complaint to a report, with a person at every decision

  1. Log the complaint

    Who raised it, where, and the time window. Then add the camera footage for that window.

  2. SafeNest finds the moments

    It looks for pushing, hitting and fighting, and marks each one as a moment to watch. It runs on a computer at your centre.

  3. You watch and decide

    Play each moment and mark it confirmed, not confirmed or unsure. Only what you confirm becomes a finding.

  4. Issue the report

    A PDF with the complaint, your findings and the outcome, ready for parents, your management or a regulator.

You see outlines and labels, never names

The video plays as recorded, with outlines drawn over the children so you can follow who did what. Children are labelled Child A and Child B within each case. SafeNest has no face recognition and never works out who anyone is.

A moment to watch is not a verdict

SafeNest can miss things, and it can flag ordinary play. That's why a person confirms every finding, and why a case with no moments found still gets looked at.

For teachers

You became a teacher to teach, not to watch CCTV.

Today a complaint can mean an afternoon in front of a monitor, scrubbing back and forth, then an evening writing it up. SafeNest takes the scrubbing away.

  • Watch the moments, skip the hours

    Go straight to the few seconds that need a person's eyes, with the time and room already noted.

  • The report comes together as you go

    The complaint details, your findings and the outcome go into one document. You write what you saw, and you don't have to format it.

  • Your judgement, on record

    Every decision you make is kept in a record that can't be quietly edited later, so your work stands up when questions come.

For parents

Raised a concern? Here is what happens next.

At a centre that uses SafeNest, your concern doesn't depend on someone finding a spare afternoon to check the cameras.

  • It gets looked at properly

    The footage for the time and place you describe is checked for physical incidents, from start to finish.

  • A person decides, not a machine

    Staff watch every moment SafeNest finds and decide what happened. Nothing is concluded automatically.

  • An answer based on what the footage shows

    The centre records its findings and outcome in a written report.

  • Every child's privacy is protected

    No face recognition, and the footage never leaves the centre. Your child is protected the same way as every other child in the room.

Privacy by design

Built for footage of children

SafeNest was designed around Singapore's PDPA and the trust parents place in a centre.

Stays at your centre

It runs on a computer on your premises. Footage is never uploaded, and it works with no internet connection.

No face recognition

People are anonymous outlines with labels like Child A. Nobody is tracked from one clip to the next.

A person confirms everything

The system suggests moments to watch. Only staff can turn one into a finding.

Only the right people see a case

Investigators see only the cases assigned to them. The principal sees all of them. IT staff manage accounts but can't open a case.

A record that can't be rewritten

Every step is logged in a tamper-evident chain, and every report prints the chain's fingerprint.

Deleted on schedule

Footage is deleted automatically 90 days after a case closes, unless the case is on legal hold. Backups are encrypted with a key only your centre holds.

What SafeNest can't see

CCTV has no sound and can't read minds. SafeNest only looks for physical contact like pushing, hitting and fighting. It can't tell you about name-calling, a child being left out, or what someone meant. Those still need a conversation.

Now inviting pilot centres in Singapore

Try SafeNest at your centre

We're looking for a small number of childcare centres and schools to pilot SafeNest with us. We'll show you a demo on sample footage, then set it up on a computer at your centre and work through it with your team.
