Kangarootime overview

What is Kangarootime?

Kangarootime is a cloud-based platform for childcare and early education businesses, covering document management, billing, payment processing, child check-ins, classroom management, and more features. The system connects parents, teachers, directors, and center owners through real-time messaging, calendars and announcements to ensure that everyone is kept up-to-date.

With Kangarootime, children can be securely checked in and out of centers by parents, with daily audit logs and to-the-second time tracking. Parents can also authorize other adults to collect their children, with the center automatically alerted to the change. Pictures can be shared securely with parents through the in-app messaging system, with all chats, emails, and pictures organized in a single database. Centers can use Kangarootime to collect fees, with integrated payment processing and collections automation.

What do users say about Kangarootime?

I know parents receive a notification when they have a message, it would be nice if Admin could receive a notification on their phone or computer when they have a new message.
