Hi there,
​
We have some exciting news to share: We’ve been working on something behind the scenes, something that reflects not just where we’re going, but what we stand for.
​

Parent App is about to look and feel completely different and we wanted to give you a glimpse before the exciting change goes live.
​

​
​What's changing?

• A new layout with a cleaner, more intuitive design.
  ​
• A new “Holdings” account is introduced for multi-centre owners, that allows you to see analytics from all your centres at once.
  ​
• Widgets that you can customize so you see what you want to see, where you want to see it on your overview dashboard.
  ​
• Relocated Navigation Bar that's easier to find and use.
  ​
• Refreshed colors and branding that reflect our commitment to you & simplicity.

Note: These updates are currently available on the web portal only.
​

We also renamed a few of your favorite features to help you find them faster:

• Form Builder is now Smart Forms

• Inspiration Library is now Activities (because that’s what it helps you plan!)

• Activities is now Homework (that you can assign to bridge home-centre life)

• Parent Permissions is now Consent

• And Document Center is now Parent Drive (a hub to share important information with parents!)

What's staying the same? Everything you rely on! All your favorite features they're all still there, just easier to access and navigate!
​

Why are we making this change? As always, it’s been shaped by you: your feedback, your needs, and the mission we share to make early childhood the best it can be. It's the result of months of listening to your feedback about what would make your daily workflow smoother and more efficient.
​

When will this happen? We'll be rolling out the new interface and revealing our new logo on Monday September the 15th. Save the date!
​

Need support during the transition? Our team will be standing by to help you navigate any questions. The new layout is designed to be more intuitive, but we're here for you every step of the way.
​

Lastly, this update is our commitment to the values that guide everything we do:

• Live with Purpose Every change was made with intention, designed to support you better
  ​
• Earn Trust & Own Responsibility We listened to your feedback and delivered solutions that matter
  ​
• Innovate Boldly We didn't just update the look; we reimagined how you interact with our platform

Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping shape this journey. We can't wait for you to experience it!
