Pernille Schmidt Ripp at Famly, explains why collaboration should come first...
As an early years educator you work your hardest for your children and families.
But inadequate funding, shifting policies, recruitment challenges and bureaucracy can make the day-to-day very tough.
The only way to weather the storm is together 鈥 to collaborate with colleagues and parents and work collectively for the children in your care.
You may be wondering how you could possibly squeeze any more into your day 鈥 more conversations, more feedback and more inspiration.
But at Famly, rather than adding to your to-do list, we incorporate collaboration into the processes that are already there.
Built-in collaboration
Unlike traditional nursery management software, where the focus is on your admin, Famly is an early childhood platforms that focuses on helping all adults involved in a child鈥檚 care and education to work together.
So how does a platform such as Famly bring more collaboration into your everyday work?
Here are a few ideas鈥
- Share observations 鈥 Educators can share and see each other鈥檚 observations and assessments, so they can learn and improve together.
- Share more from home 鈥 How are families sharing their experiences from home? How can you integrate these into the setting?
- Collaborative admin 鈥 Rather than passing information back-and-forth through endless phone calls, parents and providers can document, edit or upload information.
- Parents can pay right away 鈥 There is no need to set up a separate billing process, everything you need to invoice and receive payment is built into the platform.
- Act on live insights 鈥 Quickly get an overview of the happenings and needs of your setting in real-time. No more time wasted on pulling reports only for the moment to have passed.
- Community, not messaging 鈥 The best settings are a hub for their parent communities 鈥 and your platform should reflect that too.
Of course conversations with colleagues and parents will always be the best way to work together.
But incorporating collaboration into the tools you use can offer further support as you navigate these choppy times.
