Abstract

This study aims to examine digital-based management innovation in improving the quality of early childhood education services. The research employs a qualitative approach with descriptive methods through literature study, utilizing secondary data from journals, books, and relevant scientific articles published between 2020-2025. The findings indicate that conventional student management still faces various obstacles, including manual data management, limited communication between teachers and parents, and suboptimal monitoring of child development. The implementation of digital innovations such as student management applications and e-portfolios provides solutions by enabling more structured data management, real-time development monitoring, and more transparent communication. These innovations not only improve administrative efficiency but also strengthen collaboration between schools and parents in supporting child development. Additionally, digitalization enhances the accessibility and flexibility of educational services. However, implementation requires infrastructure support, human resource competencies, and adequate policies. Thus, digital-based student management innovation plays a crucial role in improving the quality of early childhood education services that are more effective, efficient, transparent, and oriented toward children's developmental needs.
