Our easy-to-use app transforms how early years teachers capture, store and communicate in real-time to parents, giving them greater insights and updates on their child’s welfare, learning and development. We will help you take parents/guardians on a journey through their child’s early years, capturing all their achievements, milestones, interests, activities, and strengths in the form of photos, messages and tools.
Our app will help you work quicker and smarter by eliminating repetitive and time-consuming paperwork, allowing you to spend more quality time on what’s most important – the children!

Form Builder
We have created various digital forms where your parents and staff can digitally sign online like incident & accident, medical consent and cleaning sheets. We have created all the HSA forms for your staff returning to work, these can all be completed online and saved automatically for compliance. You can edit any of the forms or create your own. You can use it to create surveys or questionnaires with colleagues and parents or build your own checklists, it’s endless.
Conversations
‘Communication is the basis of all relationships’. No more need to write notes into individual children’s notebooks. Instead, send communications digitally to both parents and teachers. You can now share videos, audio files, newsletters, policies, pdf’s, word doc and most other file formats.
Observations
Create observations on each child whilst linking in seamlessly with your National Framework of Aistear & Siolta or EYFS. Our 'talk to text' function allows you to type using your voice.
Push Notifications
Now you can send push notifications just like texting but without the cost. Parents can decide which notifications they would like to receive so they instantly get to see them on their phone or computer.
Attendance Tool - (NCS Compliant)
Our attendance tool automatically calculates all your children’s hours with the click of a button for each day, week or month. You can compare each child’s projected hours versus the actual hours they did.
Activities And Photos
Make your parent’s day by sending notifications and photos of their little darlings! Every parent loves to see pictures and receive snippets of stories showing what their child is doing during their day.

The Crann Support Group considered many different digital products on the market, both at home and abroad.
The product that could most obviously meet the needs of the childcare facility and parents alike was the Child Paths App.
This decision was an outcome of a consultation process, which involved Childcare Professionals and Parents. We have found the team at Child Paths to be extremely professional and helpful with all of our queries and would not hesitate in lending our name to support their product.

We are delighted to be working with Child Paths on their new finance feature. Its great to be able to engage with a company that have such knowledge of the Irish childcare sector and the funding schemes. They’ve built in recurring invoicing whether you charge weekly or monthly and it automatically links in with the childs scheme funding. With the ability to apply bespoke fee types, discount levels and addons it simplifies the whole process of generating invoices. This will be hugely beneficial from Pobal compliance purposes as it shows the funding breakdowns on the parents invoice allowing for all schemes including NCS wrap around hours. The invoices will be automatically available on the families Child Paths account once they have been enabled which means no more letters getting lost at the bottom of school bags and parents can see what their upcoming invoice will be. We are working with Child Paths to be able to generate a csv file for Direct Debit processing.

We have been working with Child Paths since 2017.
We have found every part of the process seamless and easy. The staff has more time with the children in their care with the use of tablets instead of paperwork. As childcare practitioners, we understand that supporting families and open communication and interaction leads to better outcomes for children.
We now see Child Paths as an integral part of achieving these close relationships with parents. We would not be without it.

Love this software!
We began working with Child Paths in May 2018 and have the app in place in our seven centres. It’s a great tool and takes a lot of pain out of the day-to-day paperwork. I love looking at my own child’s photos and updates too.
Well worth it and well thought out product. Highly recommend it and the team are a pleasure to deal with too.

Child Paths has allowed us to spend more time with the children and for us, that is the most important factor. It has immensely reduced the level of paperwork and improved communication within the group and our parents.
It is a real conversation starter. The support and time given by the team enabled a smooth transition from a mountain of paperwork to a streamlined system.
I have nothing but praise for Child Paths as both a Manager and a Parent.

The Child Paths application has had a significant impact on our service. Our reliance on paper documentation, e.g. attendance sheets, daily records, sleep charts, food records and child observation records, has decreased dramatically.
We no longer need to store large quantities of documents, now we store this information electronically. We have an obligation to work in partnership with parents/guardians, to ensure the best possible outcomes, and we do this through sharing information.
In my opinion, there is no better way to do this than through the Child Paths app.

We have introduced Child Paths in 5 of our services and it has improved and simplified our record keeping.
Staff and parents appreciate the ease with which we can share relevant information and updates including pictures and activities.
The system saves staff time, allows for clear and concise messages to be passed between relevant people while meeting new requirements for TUSLA and POBAL. It also provides the back office with easier access to relevant details. We are happy to recommend this system

We had been using Child Paths for a few months before we went completely live to Parents in February 2020 and WOW our staff love using Child Paths. It's easy to navigate and also enables us to ensure we get the best out of each child's learning and also enables us to provide a sense of peace to our Parents/Carers knowing how they are getting on throughout the day. I would highly recommend this app to other Childcare providers. As a Manager I enjoy the fact that I can log on throughout the day to see what the children have been up to and just how the day is going. I would also like to say just how helpful both Ciaran and Robbie are, they are there to help and talk through any questions you have immediately. Thank you for being so helpful
