It has opened up a whole new way of documenting our cycle of learning and communicating with families - they now have the opportunity to send quick messages, offer photos and stories from home and communicate directly with their child's teachers. Pros The introduction of Kindyhub software has played a major role in our NQS rating going from Meeting to Exceeding in all seven quality areas, because everything we do is documented on the Kindyhub platform. We could simply show the assessor everything in one central location, ranging from individual child observations, individual goals, learning stories, daily journals, communication with families, and show that we are linking it all back to our critical reflection and programming and planning. We love that Kindyhub works in real time and communication and responses between Educators and families is genuine and authentic. It's wonderful that we can instantly share information about children's learning and development with families and extended families, and receive their feedback and suggestions. We have found that this has not only strengthened communication and relationships with children and families, but also enhanced Educator engagement and wellbeing - as a direct result of the positive feedback and words of appreciation from families. Cons Printing options could be more user friendly for learning stories - currently there is limited options to edit size and location of text and photos. It would also be great if there was an option to be able to print out family stories and also to be able to edit and change font and text size.

Pros We love Kindyhub's ease of use. New staff pick it up very quickly. Parents love the constant communication and staff love the technology that allows them to complete paperwork in half the time. Cons There is a little inflexibility in some of the reporting processes. We would love to have some different types of observation templates to make use of. Maybe mind maps of photo sequencing. Review Source R Reviewer Group leader Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Daily use caption this " September 26, 2019 3.0 I like kindyHub but to actually give feedback it feels like a hard process as I am just on it I am not the director and I would like to add photos and screen shots that’s any admin can do that not just our centre director , to be able to upload more photos at once I have so many ideas just need to make it easier to send you my feedback. Pros I love kindy hub it’s instant, fast and effective Cons When uploading photos I can only do 20 at a time I would love to do more at a time save time and post effector as much as I can, videos also they take so long to upload. Review Source R Reviewer Director Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Fully customised for what we need " October 14, 2019 5.0 Kindyhub has replaced all of our paperwork, it does al;l of our checklist and the observation and organizer function is amazing. Pros I love that it allows Families and Educators to communicate in real-time. It gives you instant access to Families allowing you to customise who you send communications too. Cons nothing, the program fits everything we need it too. Review Source R Reviewer Director Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Shine Bright Times" September 17, 2019 4.0 Educators at Shine Bright have noticed an overwhelming response in regards to family input with its kindyhub family stories feature. Pros Kindyhub has the capacity to adapt the software to our centre's need. At Shine bright we wanted to create a newsletter template which would allow our families to see how we are implementing our quality improvement plan in the seven quality areas, kindyhub exceeded our expectations in this area and the "Shine Bright Times" template was created, we could not be happier. Each day we are learning something new about this software and what it is capable of. Cons I have communicated previously that I would like to kindyhub to have it's own educator section, without having to add the educators in and pay for it as you would for a child. Would also like to see improvements on the communicate section, possibly a search section to be able to filter through the messages quickly. Review Source R Reviewer Nominated supervisor Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Kindyhub in action" October 16, 2019 4.0 Kindyhub is easy to contact and easy to use. We love the ability to notify our parents of things happening the access to the calendar, observations, programming and that it is user friendly. Pros I really love the ease of access to communications with parents and educators. The parents receive daily notifications with pictures of their children and charts about their day. It is easy to upload photos and tag children. The family stories also allow us to see what the families are doing and it is simple to add to our curriculum. Cons It is difficult to upload documents that we would like to use. There is only one form of observation available and we need to create our own templates which can be difficult. Review Source R Reviewer Cert 3 Educator Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Yeah it’s great!!!" September 17, 2019 4.0 It’s an absolutely simple (when you get it) software that has made many parts of the job here at kindy wayyyyyyy easier. Communication with parents is outstanding and helps us complete goals here at kindy and connects them to the home life. Overall Kindyhub is extremely helpful and efficient. Pros I like how user friendly it is. It seems to adjust to the iPad format really easily and this helps with observations and uploads. I really enjoy the fact that when I have done an observation or daybook for the parents, they get an email and are able to easily check it out for them selves, with the bonus if even being able to write responses and comments. Parents inform us through it to let us know if their child is sick on a day, which is really handy and easy for us to check. Overall I really enjoy this software. Cons I get a little frustrated with the photos, that even if we leave the iPad on charge and on, still don’t complete processing. This issue happens every now and then, and I’m not sure if that’s a software issue or an internet on our part just playing up on us. Also a con would be that when I’m doing an observation I can’t place the photos in an order that I would like them in, or maybe do it similarly to the report creators and have sections where I put writing and words beside each other (this might make it too complicated for others though, maybe a bit much). Review Source R Reviewer Director/owner Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Kindyhub Review" September 17, 2019 4.0 overall experience has been good. I would like to see more features soon- such as what has been mentioned in my cons. But also i would like to see a button where we can go back to our daily enteries more than 2 weeks. Eg: say last month on a particular day. Also more a feature where we can look up a child's name in the communication instead of going through all of the emails sent to families to find what we want. Pros My educators and myself especially like the how easy it is to take photos of the children and pass these memories onto the families which they love to receive. Cons That families don't have a alert to say that we have sent them a message- photos on our screen once photos are taken are hard to see without opening them first then tagging the children involved. Review Source R Reviewer Early Childhood Teacher and Educational Leader Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "KindyHub Reflection" October 14, 2019 4.0 Pros I am really enjoying being able to create Eportfolios for all the children who attend our childcare setting. It is a wonderful way for us to connect with families, making them feel apart of our pedagogical practices as we upload information throughout the day for them to view and comment on. KindyHub has improved our time management especially with our programming time. We are able to build our weekly programs as we write our learning stories or observations by adding straight to the organiser. As an Educational Leader it is a wonderful program to use for monitoring staffs output and children's development across the whole centre as well as our family partnerships. KindyHub makes it easier to incorporate those important pedagogical connections. I love that we can design our own charts and customize to our needs. Cons We find at times when we wish to add different tags to the pedagogical connections such as EYLF, MTOP, NQS, Theorist and our philosophy links, it can be difficult getting timely responses from support staff at KindyHub. I would for our manager staff members to be able to add to these without having to contact support. It would be nice to have more creative freedom with the layouts for example with the observations being able to change headings would be wonderful. Review Source R Reviewer Family day care educator Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Kindyhub review " October 16, 2019 5.0 Kindyhub keeps me on track with family communications and my observations. I find it gives me a real incentive to keep my service constantly changing and I love the record and great photos to look back on. My FDC coordinator loves to check in and see what we have been up to and where my programming is going. Pros I like that it is simple to use, I have been an educator for 27 years and technology hasn’t been a part of that but kindyhub has been easy to navigate and the team is always there to help even when I don’t always understand what they might be saying,we work it out together. I snap and tag the photos in no time and send out daily reports to my families in my down time,so quick to use. Cons I had a few problems with time uploading videos but a recent change to NBN has improved that greatly Review Source R Reviewer Centre Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Scheduling Communication" October 22, 2019 4.0 Pros Everything in one spot add photos to observations Cons As a manager i would like to be able to schedule communication with my families. Search function for communication sent to families/educators to refer back to. Review Source R Reviewer Early childhood teacher Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Tagging photos" November 21, 2019 5.0 Pros Tagging photos of the children for families to see Cons At the moment we can only tag one photo at a time. we take multiple photos of an individual child, It would be good if we could select all the photos of an individual child and tag them all at once . Select all the photos that "Johnny" is in. And tag him in one go. Review Source R Reviewer Stay at home mum Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Great " February 12, 2020 4.0 Good Pros It enables me to keep track of my child’s development Cons I wish there’s an individual assessment for each child Review Source R Reviewer Centre Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Happy but wanting to grow our app further to meet the needs of our service" September 17, 2019 4.0 Its good but it would great if improvements could be made e.g. allowing parents to view the organizer. Pros I like the ability to change templates, add additional children on days they aren't booked in. I like how we can put all the children's information on it e.g. toileting, food and bottles. I like how families can communicate via the app and send in photos from their weekends. Cons The organizer, it repeats to much! You should be able to print off a monthly mini version to limit the wastage of paper being printed. As it repeats a lot its sometimes too much for families to read. Review Source R Reviewer Admin Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Review" September 17, 2019 4.0 Pros Easily accessible, easy to use, create your own charts, communications for families. Cons What we like least about Kindyhub is there is no search button for communications, children archived still come up in communications if siblings attend, would be easier if you could press tab to move on to the next photo to tag children or if it picked up regular tags to help the process and make it quicker. Review Source R Reviewer Lead Educator Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Easy to use and time saving." September 17, 2019 5.0 Kindyhub is a wonderful time-saving tool to add photos and information about children's days quickly and effectively, sending it straight to the registered parents or guardians. It is also useful to send messages to parents if we need to pass important information onto them. Overall, I have found Kindyhub to be a very useful and easy to use program. Pros It makes sending photos and information to parents very convenient and easy to use. It is a great time saving tool for adding daily communication and reports to parents and even other staff, plus observations of children. I also love that reports can be started and saved, to complete at a later time, while logging in from any computer or device when it is most convenient. Cons Sometimes, if the internet is slow, it can take quite a bit longer for the photos to download and be tagged successfully. The names of the tagged children do not always come up under 'Manage photos', but can sometimes appear later. Review Source R Reviewer Educational Leader Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Fantastic Educational tool" September 17, 2019 5.0 Kindyhub has solved all our needs in communicating and sharing with families their child's individual and group learning experince. Pros Kindyhub is an easy program to navigate to document each child's learning journey and share with families. Its a one stop place for the documentation of the whole program and curriculum! Cons Sometimes downloading videos can be slow and requires several attempts Review Source R Reviewer Educator Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Good software" October 14, 2019 4.0 Great experience. Pros Easy to manage and simple app for parents. Cons Download only 20 photos at a time, can't create a monthly program that can be send to families. Review Source R Reviewer Early Childhood Educator (Room/Team Leader) Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Organiser" October 14, 2019 4.0 Overall my experience with kindyhub has been good. Overall the app is quite easy to understand just a few things take some time to get used to. Pros How easy it is to use the different templates . Cons The organiser. It becomes very confusing and irritating when you click on the certain room you are trying to edit. I dont like how after you have started editing you room play spaces onto the organiser and once it is saved it goes back to the beginnning and you have to reselect your room from the very beginnning. If this could be changed so that you are able to stay on the same page once you being editing it would be so much more easier to use. Review Source R Reviewer Owner/Director/Educator Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "So Grateful for KindyHub" September 19, 2019 5.0 We came to KindyHub after being let down by our previous Software supplier - we were desperate. KindyHub were so generous and accommodating right from the start. We have worked really well together developing areas that work for our Kindy. They have been wonderful in listening to new suggestions too. Pros So easy to use and covers so much of what we need. It is both thorough and simple. Families love it and being able to engage so much more with families has been a really important part of the process which we love. It is helping to further develop our Educators knowledge and understanding of so many parts of early education. Cons We really don't have any Con's - any issues we've had KindyHub Support has been able to help us with or find a new solution. Review Source R Reviewer Director Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "User friendly and always a call away for help" September 20, 2019 5.0 Pros Great app that is personalised for our service use. It can allow parents to communicate with families, so easy to use with staff and looks great! I also love how support consider new feature requests and implement them like the online incident reports! Cons Not much at all! I just wish it had a tab for emergency contacts and maybe a QIP feature that we can manage our ongoing plans. Review Source R Reviewer Educator Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Great tool " September 18, 2019 4.0 Huge reduction of paper and waste from filing. Reduction in printing costs. Easy for families to see what their children have been doing throughout the day with multiple phots instead of 2-3 in a book. Easy to write and keep observations. Pros Love uploading photos and making comments, then having it link to the daily journal automatically. Easy to use and manage. Cons Can only upload 20 pics at a time. Can’t work out how to design a programme online.. Can’t customise with how I’d like it set up. Review Source R Reviewer MAnager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Feedback" October 17, 2019 5.0 Great for sustainability - less paper on a weekly basis. Good to have almost everything in one place - ease of access. More parent engagement and direct communication with educators without having to go through front of house. Pros Easy and inviting interface. Easy to get the hang of. Cons That all educators are able to see each other's work. People's accounts should be set up that they can only see their own work unless permission has been given otherwise. There should be more flexibility to customise reports in the report creator section. Extra modules and accessories should be available as this would help in setting up portfolios/checklists etc. Review Source R Reviewer Director Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Easy to use kindyhub" October 14, 2019 5.0 I will continue to use this software. The value for money and ease of use are definitely a big selling point for me. Pros It is so easy to use and teach others how to use it. It has easy functions for families to access Cons Having to log in every time and not having push notifications Review Source R Reviewer 2IC/ Educational leader Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "kindy hub in use for early childhood" October 22, 2019 3.0 Keeping paper and files in order is an absolute dream and the ease of being able to review when a child is missing reports for the month. Pros The software is easy to manage recorded data and files. Cons The inability to create appealing and decorative documents Review Source Similar Products Featured
