Very useful app

It gives a lot of information about the child during the time at nursery

Brilliant App

I love this app. It’s brilliant the nursery are great at updating us throughout the day. It’s easy to navigate the app and easy to contact the nursery staff if needed.

Not good

I’m a teacher and parent, and our school recently switched over from Brightwheel. I’ve also used Procare before that. This app has the worst UI of them all! I hate how everything is buried under a drop down menu. We should be able to add multiple children to multiple classrooms. This app is NOT user-friendly at all! The last thing I want to be doing when I’m supposed to be focusing on my class is clicking through 5 different pathways to get to attendance or something! The messaging system is awful too. I really dislike this app. The only nice thing is I can easily switch between my employee and parent accounts, and the documents section is straightforward. Please make this app easier for teachers to use!!!

Unable to like posts

Great app and I love that we get communication from nursery.
A recent update has meant that we’re unable to react to posts - it will open the photo or the child’s name behind the emoji instead.
Update - support fixed this very quickly after reporting; back to a fantastic app again.
