Xplor Playground, by Xplor Technologies helps Capture every moment in a child's learning journey, keep on top of health and wellbeing at a glance, and stay ready for anything, from daily routines to emergencies. Keep parents in the loop by securely sharing with them. OBSERVATIONS & LEARNING Don't miss a moment. Capture an observation in seconds, share up to 16 photos at once, and tag learning outcomes as you go, or save as a draft and finish later. HEALTH & ROUTINES See every child's day at a glance. Sleep checks follow Red Nose Australia guidelines and ACECQA endorsement, with bulk logging so routines don't eat into your day. Timers flag nappy changes and rest checks before they're missed. MEDICATION & INCIDENTS A simplified medication workflow with signature support for administrators and witnesses. Incident records now include digital signatures, so documentation is complete without the paperwork. DOCUMENTS, YOUR WAY Categorise child documentation for easier organisation and reporting, and choose which attachments educators see directly in the app. EMERGENCY READY Works without an internet connection. Mark children safe, add notes, and time-stamp the response as it happens. MADE FOR SHARING One tablet or phone, many educators. The dashboard makes handovers between staff in a room simple. ATTENDANCE & RATIOS See who's signed in and booked in at a glance and stay in ratio without the guesswork.
