This Father’s day, the dads at tadpoles are excited to provide several new updates. We just rolled out a new web interface called the Director’s Dashboard. Childcare directors now have a real-time view into everything that’s happening at their centers. You can see live room counts, parent communications, reminders and daily schedules right from one spot. What’s really exciting is that you don’t have to refresh the page, any changes automatically load as they occur!
We’ve also added a new child portfolio screen so that you can quickly view child observations made from your iPhone or iPad. They can be quickly organized by domain or dimension to help during child assessments. Using tadpoles you can more effectively do observations and increase parent involvement at the same time!
Another great feature on the website allows you to do attendance from your browser in addition to your mobile device. You can now do attendance in the classroom or from the front desk.
The last feature we want to mention is Quick Lists. If you open up the child profile screen from the web you can now add custom labels or tags to the child. The labels help you manage special programs or needs that enable you to quickly go back and see which children are part of that group. From the main dashboard you can then use the quick list drop down to filter the list of children who are part of that group.
We’ve got a lot more great features that will be coming out over the summer. We’d love to hear your feedback on what you like and what you’d love to see next. Feel free to reach out to us at anytime at talk.to.us@tadpoles.com. It’s the great customer feedback that we get that helps us continue to add awesome new features!
