Classroom Management System
Managing and retaining quality staff members starts with giving them the tools to succeed. A childcare management system is one way to set your staff up for success. This software will allow your teachers to oversee their classrooms, connect with parents, and increase the quality of care for the children all while making their jobs easier.
With Kangarootime, your staff has access to our Rooming module, giving them an overview of their classroom and each child in it. Here they can record digital daily notes, send photos, message parents, track attendance, and more. This all-in-one hub makes point-of-care easy for your staff.
