Awful
My daycare switched from Tadpoles to Kaymbu and I have to say, awful awful downgrade. The app is constantly glitching and freezing, if you have kids in your class from a different classroom..you can’t see their profile to contact parents if necessary, doing progress reports for any child under the age of 2 is lengthy and unnecessary, and some of the lesson plans are jus ridiculous, no 1 year old should be using any sort of electronic device in a school environment.

Reminders
It is very frustrating that the person signed into app has to be logged in attendance wise for the reminders. Our admin logs us out attendance wise if we leave the classroom for a break or to do other breaks and the person in the classroom cannot see the reminders. It is cumbersome to log out and log in because it does not happen fast. It lags. The reminders should just be there for the people on duty in the classroom.
When kids are transferring to another classroom they should be able to take photos and be able to send with out hoops to figure out how to send outside of home room.

Great
Easy to use. Haven’t found any glitches.
Helpful App
This app makes it easy to add anecdotes as they are observed. I can look at reports and levels the children in my class are in order to individualize my lessons.
Honestly awful
Been using it over a year now and still hate it. MAKE IT SO YOU CAN CONNECT PHOTOS WITH ACTIVITIES!!!! WE MISS TADPOLES!! We recently got this app in the childcare center that i work. Tadpoles was much easier to use and takes a lot less time to add in diapers, bottles, sleep checks etc. There are too many tabs in Kaymbu-to have to constantly keep going back and forth through daily sheets and action tabs makes it feel like we are on the app too much during the day when we have 8 babies to care for. Also, the app keeps messing up the logging of naps. The app needs to have a dashboard where we can easily see and everything from one screen. Make it so you can add things when their daily sheet is open! This app really makes everything so much more work for teachers!!
