Raven Grandberry, owner of Discover Fun Camp, has been in the Early Childhood Education industry for over 10 years. As an owner and previous director, she knows the importance of using technology and software to improve systems at her center.
When looking to switch software providers, Raven was looking for a system that would not only support her business, but also support parent and family needs. Raven found Kangarootime and knew the platform would meet her needs based on the flexibility it offered.
“Kangarootime has more features and options for supporting families.”
Having been with Kangarootime for over a year, Discover Fun Camp has been able to see improvements in the operation of their program.
