## What is Daily Nanny?

Daily Nanny is the best way for parents and nannies to share photos, track hours and overtime, keep in touch, and stay on top of everything happening in their child's day.
 
Daily & Weekly Reports
Get beautiful visual summaries of your child's day and week — sleep timelines, feeding totals, diaper breakdowns, temperature charts, and more. See everything at a glance.

Charts & Trends
Track naps, bottles, nursing, and diaper changes over weeks and months. Spot patterns, see averages, and understand your child's routines better with interactive charts.

Shifts
Nannies clock in, enter previous shifts, and see exactly how much they are owed, including overtime! Simply enter your hourly rate and overtime rate, and we do the math. Parents can track shifts, mark them as paid, and maintain a full payment history.

Events
Create events centered around your kids that everyone on your care team can see — appointments, play dates, activities, and more.

Photos & Video
Nannies and parents can upload photos and videos and comment on them, all automatically shared with everyone involved. Add grandma across the country to keep her in the loop!

Messages
A group messaging thread between nannies and parents keeps all your care-related communication in one place.

Tracker
Track daily information like naps, bottles, nursing, meals, diapers, medicine, activities, and more. Parents get push notifications when notable events happen during the day!

Family Sharing
For Premium features, one subscription covers your whole care team — spouse, co-parent, and nanny all get access. No extra cost.

Parents get notified whenever information is entered about their child, when a photo is uploaded, or when a message is received — and notification preferences are fully customizable.

Nannies: Enter the kids you care for and start tracking. Invite as many family members as you want!
Parents: Enter your kids and invite your nanny to start collaborating!

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2025-11-18, version 6.1.5*

I can log in with my info on their website but the app says they cannot find my account so I can’t track my hours or baby’s activities throughout the day. That should never happen on an app I had to pay for.  Have tried to reach out to support but the only option is to email and wait.

### 1/5 — Overcharged

*2025-04-29, version 6.1.4*

Why did I just get charged $23 instead of the listed 6.99?

### 2/5 — At first it was great…

*2025-04-07, version 6.1.4*

This worked well at first but I can no longer delete or edit events. Now, it just repeats events we no longer attend. I emailed the developers about it but no change. No point in using the calendar (the essential communication tool with our nanny) in this app. We have had to regroup and find another means of communicating about the kids’ schedules. Very disappointing especially for a paid app.

### 2/5 — Cumbersome

*2024-11-14, version 5.2.7*

Not user friendly. I just can’t figure out how to use this app.  I have to put each day’s shift in one day at a time. I got this app so I would save time but it definitely doesn’t do that. I tried to add the weekly shift via the calendar as recommended by the developer, but that still didn’t work. 
When I enter a week of vacation at $0 it still calculates overtime for 104 hours even though I put the shift time as 9-5 at $0. 
If there was something better I’d get it instead.

### 2/5 — Idea is great

*2024-07-26, version 5.2.5*

I have to use this for my job but it constantly freezes up. It takes me 5 times to upload one picture. I have to keep refreshing the app. To
Add anything else I have to take a deep breath and count to 7 because this app is getting on my last nerves.

### 2/5 — Love this app, but doesn’t work with my current phone or update

*2024-01-29, version 5.2.3*

I used to use this app all the time, but it’s currently not working with my new phone, and my boss had the exact same problem. Would love if we could start using this app wonderful app again! 🤍

### 3/5 — Still not working with iPhone 15!

*2023-11-06, version 5.2.2*

Please help get this working for iPhone 15. Mine is still not working. Thanks!

### 4/5 — Almost great!

*2022-07-26*

Good app, but could be great.  We used another app prior to track our baby’s feedings, diapers, and growth.  When we started working with a nanny, I wanted an app to to track naps, activities/field trips, and conversations that we’d want all care takers to know about.  Sometimes my partner and I have to switch who is doing pick up last minute, so it’s good to have everyone on the same page.   This app is great for the communication aspect.  It also makes it easy to track info for multiple children and/or pets.

However, there are a couple of features I would love to see added/improved upon

1) when done one sends you a message through the app, you receive a notification but once you open the Lock Screen it’s gone.  I really wish it would show numbers inside a red bubble on the app icon on the Home Screen like the mail/text app.

2) logging naps, etc.  Sometimes I or my partner forget to log the start or end of a nap.   I like to go back and enter in the information manually so we can see patterns.  I’ve noticed if I can’t go back and adjust the time and date of when a nap was. The date is automatically logged as the current date.

### 5/5 — Great for daily use :)

*2022-01-22, version 4.0.5*

Very helpful app!

### 2/5 — New update is worse

*2022-01-20, version 4.0.5*

I was liking the app until this most recent update; now I get four simultaneous notifications with no info on any of them. “Baby drank a . Oz bottle at .” I don’t think it’s notifying me on naps either, which it used to. Also the interface is harder to look at now. I don’t care as much that she drank for 10 minutes, I’d rather see how much she drank, like it used to show. I’m sick of change for the sake of change, and not for the better. Annoying. Wish I could undo this crappy update.
