Lillio (HiMama) + live cameras

Does Lillio (formerly HiMama) have live cameras?

Short answer: no. Lillio — the early-education app previously known as HiMama — is childcare management software: daily reports, photos and video clips, parent messaging, and assessments. It does not stream a real-time live video feed of the classroom. If you want parents to watch live, you pair Lillio with a dedicated camera platform like CareCam.

Lillio & live cameras — FAQ

Does Lillio (formerly HiMama) have live streaming cameras?
No. Lillio, the early-education app previously known as HiMama, is childcare management software. It shares daily reports, photos, and short recorded video clips with families, but it does not provide a real-time live video stream of the classroom. For live parent viewing, centers pair Lillio with a dedicated camera platform.
Can I use Lillio and CareCam together?
Yes. They serve different purposes and work well side by side: Lillio handles daily reports, photos, messaging, and assessments, while CareCam adds secure, real-time live camera viewing on the cameras your center already has.
Is CareCam a Lillio replacement?
No — they're different categories. CareCam does not replace Lillio's management and daily-report features, and Lillio does not provide live cameras. Centers that want both run them together.
What cameras does CareCam need?
CareCam works with most existing IP cameras that support RTSP/ONVIF (Hikvision, Anpviz, UniFi, Hanwha), so most centers can add live viewing without buying new hardware.
Is CareCam affiliated with Lillio or HiMama?
No. CareCam is not affiliated with Lillio or HiMama. Lillio (formerly HiMama) is a trademark of its owner. This page explains how live camera viewing complements childcare management software.
