Storypark + Xap: A trusted solution

From single-site services to major providers, Storypark + Xap are already used by many of Australia’s leading early learning organisations.

A partner across every layer

Early childhood organisations shouldn’t need multiple technology providers to run well. With Storypark + Xap, they don’t.

Centre management

Give managers the confidence to run compliant and efficient services: real-time visibility across enrolments, room ratios and payments, with automated reporting that gives hours back each week.

Analytics & business intelligence

Xap Analytics gives head office a single source of truth across occupancy, compliance, finance and performance. Centre managers get the visibility they need to make confident decisions at service level.

Family engagement and communication

Keep families meaningfully connected to their child’s learning: with real-time updates, observations and milestone sharing.

Learning documentation and planning

Support educators to document, plan and share children’s learning in ways that meet quality practice standards without adding to the paperwork load.

Pedagogy and quality practice

Tools built around how educators actually work: supporting reflective practice, NQS alignment and the professional documentation that matters.

Book a discovery call

Thrive OSHC has been using Xap for over a year across all our services. Having switched to Xap from another provider, we found the product and the follow-up service to be nothing short of excellent. The dashboard is clear and easy to follow. The processes are simple and logical. I find it easy to train my staff on how to use the main features. I always receive prompt and efficient replies and resolutions.

Karen Sleeman - Director, Thrive OSHC

From the beginning, we saw a noticeable increase in family engagement with Storypark. Parents and caregivers were eager to view community posts, connect with educators about their child’s learning, and share special moments from home. This helped strengthen our partnerships with families and deepened our understanding of each child.

Kathryn Barker - General Manager Early Childhood Services, ECTARC

Onboarding with Xap has been super easy and efficient. Anything we have needed support with has been actioned quite quickly, and we are always being sent helpful information and links to keep for reference in future if needed. The team are very knowledgeable and helpful. It’s been a great experience.

What people ask us

Is Xap replacing Storypark?

No. Storypark and Xap play a different role. Storypark continues to lead on family engagement and learning documentation. Xap continues to lead on centre management, compliance and operations. Together, they create a stronger combined offer.

Are Storypark and Xap separate products?

For now, yes. But soon you’ll see a more connected experience emerge, starting with foundations like easier movement between systems and shared information where it matters.

Why does the Xap merger matter to Storypark customers?

Because it opens a clearer pathway to operational confidence - with a partner that understands both family engagement and service operations. Storypark customers gain access to Xap’s CCS compliance, occupancy analytics, and centre management tools, all backed by a team that knows early childhood.

What happens to our Storypark data if we move to Xap?

Your Storypark account and data remain unchanged if you add Xap. Xap manages your centre management and operational data, while Storypark continues to support the family engagement and learning documentation experience your families know and trust.

How long does switching to Xap take?

Xap's guided onboarding typically takes 6–8 weeks. You get dedicated onboarding specialists who have worked in early childhood themselves, a dedicated relationship manager, and Australian-based support throughout the entire process.

What support do we get during migration to Xap?

Xap's Safe Switch Framework covers everything from initial assessment through migration, security, and scaling. Every onboarding specialist has worked in early childhood - as a centre manager or educator - and a relationship manager stays with your service well beyond go-live.

Will anything change for current customers right away?

The focus right now is on clarity, continuity and confidence. Both brands remain trusted and fully supported. Changes to how they work together will be communicated clearly and in advance.

Why does the Storypark Xap merger matter for Xap customers?

Because it adds sector-leading family engagement and pedagogy into the broader ecosystem. Xap customers can gain access to Storypark's family communication tools, learning documentation features, and the support of degree-qualified pedagogical consultants.
