At Joyofy, we believe there is a better way to care for children. A joyful way where parents satisfaction meets the ​child’s happiness and comfort. We're obsessively passionate about it, and our mission is to help people achieve it. Our founders, both with kids in 4 – 5 years of age group, were not pleased with the lack of visibility to their child’s activities at school, as well as, distraught about the association with schools/ after schools on pick-up and drop-off schedules. With this problem at hand, founders started an incredible journey. Together the duo- created a solution that met the needs of the schools and parents. With a full faith in the transformative power of technology and its ability to simplify communications, elevate experiences, engage and inspire people everywhere, we created a delighting software product. Our mobile and web-based application make it very easy for teachers and daycare, school providers to share kids activities pictures, have one-click check-in, check-out, and automatic notifications and a lot more. Together, these features provide a very powerful toolset, which meets and exceeds the needs of the schools, parents, and children. Our solution brings parents, teachers, and kids together to start the dialogue and communication that makes the healthy, happy and secure community. Good relationships come from collaboration. We're excited to start a dialogue, learn about you, and ‘Joyofy’ the world together.
