Parent Portal Overview
The Parent Portal is your dedicated space in KidzLog to stay informed about your child's day. From here you can view activity updates, check attendance records, read announcements, see upcoming events, and communicate with staff.
The Parent Dashboard
When you log in as a parent, you land on the Home page — your dashboard for quick access to everything about your child.
The dashboard is organized into three sections:
Child Profile Card
At the top of the page, a greeting card displays your name and your currently selected child's name. Tap the arrow icon to go to your child's full profile.
Activity & Announcements Tabs
Below the greeting, two tabs let you switch between:
- Activity — A chronological feed of your child's daily activities including check-ins, check-outs, meals, sleep, bathroom visits, mood logs, and learning achievements.
- Announcements — Published announcements from your center, such as program updates or center-wide notices.
Upcoming Events Sidebar
On the right side (desktop only), a calendar widget and event list show upcoming center events. Tap any event to view its details, or tap View All to see the full events page.
Switching Between Children
If you have more than one child enrolled at the center, you can switch between them using the child selector at the bottom of the sidebar.
Tap on a child's name to switch. The dashboard will reload with that child's activity feed, attendance, and daily report data.

Frequently Asked Questions

Navigation items depend on which modules your center has enabled. For example, if your center hasn't enabled the Payments module, the Payments link won't appear.
