KinderCare employees can access payroll records—including pay stubs and W-2 tax forms—through the company’s Workday self-service portal. The platform is available through a web browser and the Workday mobile app, enabling employees to retrieve important documents without waiting for paper copies or contacting payroll for routine requests.
Besides providing payroll information, Workday allows eligible employees to review or update personal details, manage contact information, check time-off balances, submit leave requests, and complete various employment-related tasks. Although the precise menu labels may change as Workday is updated, the following instructions explain the standard process.
KinderCare Workday Login
To access your KinderCare employee account through a browser:
- Visit the KinderCare Workday portal at https://wd5.myworkday.com/kindercare/login.htmld.
- Select the appropriate single sign-on option if prompted.
- Enter your company-authorized username or email address.
- Complete any password or multifactor authentication steps required by the system.
- After successful authentication, Workday will display your employee homepage.
Only use credentials issued or approved by KinderCare. Avoid entering your password on a page reached through an unfamiliar email, advertisement, or unofficial website.
How to View a KinderCare Pay Stub in Workday
A Workday payslip provides a detailed account of your earnings and deductions for a particular pay period. Depending on the configuration of your account, it may show gross pay, net pay, taxes, benefit deductions, payment elections, year-to-date totals, and the account or method through which your wages were distributed.
To find and print a pay stub:
- Sign in to the KinderCare Workday portal.
- Open your employee profile or select Menu.
- Choose Pay.
- Select Payslips or Pay and Payslips.
- Review the list of available pay-period dates.
- Choose the pay period you want to examine.
- Select the corresponding PDF, View, or View PDF Statement option.
- Once the document opens, use your browser or PDF viewer to download or print it.
If you have added the Pay application to your Workday homepage, you may be able to take a shorter route: open Pay, locate the View section, and select Payslips.
When checking a payslip, pay close attention to the pay-period dates, gross earnings, deductions, taxes, and net payment. If anything appears out of place, raise the matter promptly; resolving a payroll discrepancy is usually easier when the details are still fresh.
How to Access a KinderCare W-2 Form Online
KinderCare employees can generally retrieve available W-2 forms from the My Tax Documents area in Workday.
Follow these steps:
- Log in to Workday.
- Open Menu or select the Pay application from the homepage.
- Find the View section.
- Select More if the full list of options is not visible.
- Choose My Tax Documents.
- Locate the relevant tax year and document.
- Select View/Print beside the applicable W-2.
- Open the generated PDF, then download or print it for your records.
Workday may need a moment to prepare the document. If a message such as Notify Me Later appears, select it and wait for the completion notice. The finished document should become available through the notification bell. Open the notification and select the PDF to view or print your W-2.
Some employees may have more than one W-2 for the same tax year because of payroll, company, or employment changes. If several forms display a View/Print button, open and retain every applicable form before preparing your tax return.
Using the Workday Mobile App
The Workday mobile app offers a convenient way to access payroll information while away from a computer. It is available for supported Apple and Android devices.
To configure the app:
- Download the official Workday app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
- Open the app and select the option to sign in through your organization.
- Enter kindercare as the organization code.
- Continue through KinderCare’s single sign-on process.
- Complete any identity-verification or multifactor authentication request.
- If offered, create a secure mobile PIN or enable your device’s approved biometric sign-in feature.
To view a payslip in the app, open the Pay or Payslips section, select the required pay date, and tap View PDF Statement. Mobile functions can vary by device and account permissions, so use the browser-based Workday portal if a particular payroll or tax option is unavailable in the app.

Final Thoughts
Workday places KinderCare pay stubs, W-2 forms, and other employment records within easy reach. In most cases, employees can retrieve a payslip through Pay > Payslips and obtain a W-2 through Pay > My Tax Documents. The mobile app makes the process even more convenient, while the browser-based portal remains useful whenever the full range of payroll options is required. Because Workday menus and organizational procedures may evolve, follow the labels displayed in your account and contact employee support whenever a document is missing, inaccurate, or inaccessible.
