Problem

Parents/Guardians do not know what is occurring with their child throughout the day and are worried they are missing out on special moments or their child is not being cared for properly while they are away.

Goals

  2. Provide ways to connect and communicate throughout the day

  4. Free with premium options for adding multiple users, or subscription for small daycares
