Hopefully, you have seen on our social media, but our Parent Zone app is changing! It’s stacked full of different sections to help you keep track of all the different elements of nursery life, including observations, images of your little one day-to-day, your invoices and finances, all nursery comms and your bookings, as well as sending in your own observations & updates at home for your key worker to check out.

How to download the new App.

To get the latest version (the old one will disappear on the 31st of August), you just need to head to your chosen app store, type in ‘parent zone’, then download the app with the logo below >

You will then be able to use the same login information as the previous version to pick up where you left of.

Key features

The team over at Connect have been working hard to add and update new features which make the Parent Zone even more useful! Some of our favourites include:

The Timeline

This is where all your little one’s observations, nappy changes, sleep updates, meals and assessments. It’s your central & constant flow of life at Muddy Boots, all focussed around your little one!

The Gallery

This little section is a constant stream for all your little one’s pictures! Expect plenty of play, unique moments, new interests and fun with friends.

My Child

Here you can find all the permissions and answers to health & dietary questions. As and when they need updating or changing, just let us know!

Bookings

Within this section, you can see all the bookings you have made for your little one in a nice and clear format. You will also be able to request additional sessions through the app very soon!

Communications

In this section, you can find all the different bits of communications we have sent your way, including your monthly invoices. If you accidentally delete them from your inbox you can click the relevant one, and click the little blue arrow to get it re-emailed out.

Finance

Under the finance tab, you can view your different bills, as well as how they breakdown into sections. You can also pay for any outstanding balances using the card payment system.

ParentHub

There is also a parent hub, packed full of helpful resources on home activities, nutrition, recipes, useful apps & links and mental health.

Parent Observation

One of the sections we are especially excited about is that you as parents can now submit observations throughout the week, which will go directly to your key worker, to keep them up to date with new interests and magic moments!

Hopefully it’s starting to make a little more sense as to why we think this app is great, but we would love to know what you think. Are there anyways we could use the app better, or anything you feel is missing?

Either way, head to your app store and download it now!
