About

Interactive 360

Features
Read full description

Used as part of our unique Interactive Nursery Manager system, the Interactive 360 mobile app enables early years practitioners to accurately record, monitor and track every aspect of a child’s wellbeing and their individual care needs. The app has been designed by nursery directors, managers, and practitioners to quickly capture all aspects of a child’s care and daily routine including sleep and nappy change times, medication and food and drink consumption. No more lost paper copies before filing! A complete record of every aspect of a child’s care record in one place and accessed by date range, allowing easy tracking over periods of time. It also provides a faster, more effective way to ensure you are sharing important information with parents. For busy parents who perhaps find it difficult to discuss their child’s full day at nursery during pick-up times, information from the app can be viewed in the Parent Portal and this allows them to reflect on their child’s day when they get home. Did their child have an afternoon nap? If so, for how long? How much did they eat and drink during snack or lunch time? With the Interactive 360 app, children’s daily care plans, allergies and protocols can all be recorded, tracked, and updated with ease. The app also facilitates electronic signatures on tablets which enables parents to sign their child in or out of nursery and to also sign any child wellbeing related forms. No more missing signatures on important documents. "I would just like to take the time to say that I really appreciate that our comments and suggestions are taken onboard, it’s wonderful to work with a company who understands that priorities vary across settings, and it is not just “one size must fit all". "Even during our trial period, we immediately recognised that the system had been designed by experienced childcare professionals and every essential function required was included". IMPORTANT: Please note, to use the Interactive 360 app, your school or nursery must have an active subscription for our Interactive Nursery Manager system.
