About Us

AcornCloud is the most comprehensive and Early Years sector specific software and is the result of the Team effort of experienced professionals from all sectors of Early Years.

AcornCloud is led by Clódagh Moynihan who has over 15 years experience in the Early Years and Special Education sectors. Clódagh has a demonstrated history of working in the Education Management industry.


Over the years Clódagh and her Management Team noticed that the day-to-day operations took up too much of the Team’s time and energy. They were constantly fulfilling administrative tasks and needed to find and format a solution to help streamline these processes and increase efficiency.

Unable to source an existing solution that met all the company’s needs, they decided to take matters into their own hands and develop a software solution specifically tailored to the needs of the Early Years sector, resulting in AcornCloud.


AcornCloud has since been leading the way across many Early Years Services, fulfilling its role to make working life in the Early Years sector less dependent on completing multiple written records. This is allowing additional time for Educators to have meaningful interactions with the Children in their care and also to build positive and meaningful relationships with Parents through additional engagement opportunities.

I have over 8 years’ experience in the Childcare industry, and I have worked my way up from Room Assistant to Room Leader and became a Deputy Manager of an Early Years Setting in 2022. I worked alongside Clódagh for 2 years and decided to join the AcornCloud Team to work with the Software as it was an exciting opportunity for me to put my experience into an exciting new Software.
