Welcome to Kindery! We're excited to have you on board. Setting up a new management system can feel daunting, but we've designed Kindery to be up and running in minutes, not days. Here is a guide to your first week.
Start by entering your center's basic information. Upload your logo, set your operating hours, and configure your classrooms (e.g., "Infants", "Toddlers", "Preschool"). This creates the structure for everything else.
Invite your staff members via email. Assign them to specific rooms and set their permissions. We recommend holding a brief 15-minute meeting to show them the app interface, though it's intuitive enough that they'll likely figure it out on their own!
You can import your student roster using our CSV template or add families manually. Make sure to include emergency contacts and any allergy information.
Before rolling out to all parents, try using Kindery internally for one day. Have staff check kids in and out and log a few daily activities. This helps everyone get comfortable with the flow.
Ready for prime time! Send out the welcome emails to parents. They'll receive a link to download the app and set up their profiles. Be prepared to answer a few questions, but mostly, get ready to receive compliments on your new, modern system!
