“There's really not many negatives to speak of other than sometimes accessing children in other rooms or switching them rooms allowing me to access their chart can be challenging, but I believe it could be more of a facility issue than a Daily Connect issue, I'm unsure.“

### "Great way to keep my child close"

January 16, 2019

5.0

Pros

Our daycare provider uses Daily Connect to keep us updated with our children during the day. For our infant, it's a great way to make sure he's eating enough and having enough diapers. For our 3 year old, we're able to see what he's working on throughout the day as the activity entry allows for customization and descriptions. We also really enjoy getting pictures of our kids throughout the day, and the messaging system is a wonderful way to talk directly to their teachers if something comes up.

Cons

It's difficult to go back to previous days for information. When the school uploads a document or news about illnesses at school, we only see it if we happen to look that day. It would also be nice to have a place where image uploads are kept so we can look through them like a gallery.

### "The best product out there for daily communication with your customers!! For all types of childcare services and programs!"

December 11, 2024

5.0

Great!! I feel like I started with the company as a baby and now it’s all grown up!! I love it!! My clients as well!

Pros

I have used daily connect for years! One of the first groups of people to use the program. I have many opportunities to switch and I won’t. Its super easy to navigate and learn and all the new things they keep adding are awesome a d amazing! My clients love it as well!

Cons

I can’t honestly think of anything when something comes you they just right on it and fix it. Their customer service is amazing. I would like to start using their payment processing center, but won’t use it until they start getting the turnaround sooner.

### "Worthwhile App"

December 11, 2024

3.0

Pros

Video uploads and customization of entries are 2 great features

Cons

Price changed to pay per child, so it is no longer a competitive price. Also the mobile version needs improvement. And parents want the option to download photos from the webpage, not just the app.

### "Keeping up with the kids"

December 13, 2024

5.0

I use Daily Connect to keep updated on how my son is doing at school. I love the pictures that are posted and the level of detail included in each days activities. It tells me not only what time things were done, but how much he ate of which foods. How he liked certain activities and how his potty learning is going.

Pros

I love how easy it is to track what is happening in my child’s day and communicate with his teachers

Cons

The messages feature is a little confusing and attempts to send my messages as emails

### "Designed for simplicity "

December 10, 2024

5.0

As a preschool director, I can confidently say that Daily Connect has been an invaluable tool for daily communication with parents. Our families love the app, and it simplifies the process for teachers to share updates about each student effortlessly.

Pros

The app is incredibly user-friendly and easy to navigate. I also appreciate how it continues to improve with new features that are just as intuitive to use.

Cons

Nothing really comes to mind. Maybe when adding a new student if everything could be on one page and not in different tabs.

December 9, 2024

WONDERFUL! Highly recommend to anyone in child care.

Pros

Very user-friendly, great price point, it contains all the elements needed to run my business & stay in compliance with regulations, extremely responsive customer service and the professional aspect of this software sets my business apart from others.

Cons

I would like if my employees had access to see their time clock-in and out, but customer service reports they are actively working on this.

### "Daily Connect is the best teacher/daycare communication platform "

November 14, 2024

5.0

Excellent. When teachers/caregivers utilize it the way it should be, it’s the best communication and connection platform for parents.

Pros

The ease of communication between our teachers/caregivers and us as parents. We can send messages back and forth, not just teachers to us.

Cons

Nothing major comes to mind. Maybe the ability to have certain notifications come through as texts rather than push notifications?

### "Daily connect"

December 9, 2024

4.0

It’s a very user friendly app. It allows for easy communication between teachers and parents.

Pros

I like that you can edit the time, in case you can’t enter in real time. I also like that it saves activities for future use. I like that you can choose multiple children on an entry.

Cons

I don’t like that it doesn’t have where you can choose the learning standards for documentation.

### "Functional and Quick Communication Tool"

December 11, 2024

4.0

Pros

The available options lay out a great array of communication tools between teachers and parents. It’s a pretty quick learning curve. Overall attractive appearance.

Cons

It doesn’t always sync and timers often don’t align between users. If you switch portals (phone vs web browser vs computer), the appearance and function are different. Some widgets are more useful than others depending on the portal. Lesson planning and observation notes can be tedious to input initially.

### "Review From a Working Mom"

December 13, 2024

5.0

As a working mom, I struggle knowing I can’t stay home with him and have to send him to Daycare. However, being able to see how many diaper changes he’s had, food and snacks, water:milk intake, and different crafts they are doing throughout the day puts my mind at ease. I am very thankful my Daycare Provider uses this app.

Pros

I am able to track what my son does throughout the day.

Cons

Every once in a while the notifications button in the app will switch to off and I won’t receive the notifications. However usually as soon as I turn it back on, there’s no issue.

### "daily connect"

December 11, 2024

4.0

I like it, just wish we could upload videos for parents

Pros

I love that it is easy to communicate with the parents/families of the children throughout the day by uploading pictures and more! It is also easy to find all of the parent/family information on the child’s profile.

Cons

I wish there was a way for us to upload videos of the children. Working with the younger kids (age 10-24 months) I see a lot of them taking their first steps or saying first words, and i wish we could share that with the parents

Cons

There isn't really anything I dislike at this moment.

December 13, 2024

5.0

Overall, the experience is easy to use, fluid, and personal allowing me to keep up to date with my child's day while I'm away. I feel satisfied that teachers are able to share information pertinent to my child and class without sharing information about other students.

Pros

Daily Connect provides an easily organized view with access to important information like meals, diapering needs, and activities.

Cons

Some descriptions are vague when describing parts of the day such as meals (i.e. 'most' can imply many different values'.).
