A digital journal succeeds when staff can record a useful observation and a family can find it. Start with one room and one child before moving the whole nursery.
A first-day pilot
- Create a room and a child record.
- Record a meal, nap or activity.
- Invite a family and verify the correct child is linked.
- Check that the family can sign in and read the record.
Keep observations clear
Write what happened and when. Separate observations from interpretations. Agree how urgent or sensitive matters will be handled; a daily journal does not replace your nursery’s procedures.
Prepare the child list
KidLink Pro supports CSV import with a preview. The file contains first name, last name and birth date; you choose the room before creation. Correct flagged rows before importing. Families are linked and invited separately, so uploading a list does not send invitations automatically.
Choose a plan from actual use
Journal, attendance, CAF/PMI register, menus and public website: free, with unlimited children. Messaging, photos and daily summaries for families. Try Familles for 30 days without a card, starting when the first family signs in. Équipe stays free afterwards. Review the prices and ask staff and families what remains difficult before extending the pilot.
