Customer Reviews

“We have introduced Child Paths in five 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 back office with easier access to relevant details. We are happy to recommend this system.”

Teresa, Owner

“We are a community creche and have been using Child Paths for almost two years to enhance our communication with parents and we now have more effective and efficient two-way communication. Staff find this a much quicker and easier method of record-keeping. Child Paths provide great support and welcome all feedback from us. We highly recommend Child Paths and while we were apprehensive about introducing the technology to our staff and parents, we would not go back.”

Kare Bowles, Manager

“Child Paths has given our time back to the children and we are no longer drowning in paperwork! The team has created a breakthrough product for the Childcare industry and families. They continue to improve and modernise the software before any new regulations come into effect, saving owners and managers time and reducing stress. I quite simply can’t recommend Child Paths highly enough. Best decision I have made to date with my company. “

Kiera Hanney, Owner

“We have been using Child paths for almost two years now and can’t fault the app and more so the support from Ciaran and the team. Anytime we have any problems (which are few) they are resolved straight away. The team are open to suggestions for change and improvement. I would highly recommend Child Paths.”

“We had been using Child Paths for a few for a few months before we went completely live to Parents in Feb 2020 and WOW our staff love using Child Paths. 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.”

Daisy Evans, Manager

“We had our Pobal Compliance visit last year. After doing the corrections on PIP in relation to nonattendance or wrong attendance of children, we had to hand back €15,000 of funding. This year we are using Child Paths to record our attendance. The inspector we had worked off Child Paths told me that it was the first software she had seen that showed the total attendance both in daily and hourly format of the child even if they attended numerous rooms during the day. She was very impressed by Child Paths as it showed everything she needed for the inspection.”

Geraldine Russell, Managing Director

“We have used Child Paths since 2016. The main reason we went with Child Paths was to free up staff from paperwork. This worked exactly as promised and more. The Child Paths team are passionate about their work and are always willing and available to support staff and parents”

Jenny Lynch, Owner

We are delighted with how the new Montessori Feature has turned out. We can now incorporate the Montessori areas of learning and the different activities much quicker through the app. It allows us to monitor and track when children have presented, practiced and mastered activities. Child Paths has been a fantastic addition to our five services here in Cork and we would highly recommend this app.”

Parent Reviews

“Child Paths have helped to make the transition back to work so much easier. It is so nice to get updates on what our little one is up to during the day. The app offers an almost fly-on-the-wall type picture of our son’s day. Every time a photo is uploaded, it brightens up my day. Having started using Child Paths, there is no way we could stop.”

Muire Donnelly

“The Child Paths app allows me to have a different conversation with the crèche and with my children. I can see from the notes and the pictures what they have been doing that day, which allows me to get further insight from the crèche into their activities and allows me to follow on the conversation or learning at home.”

Marino

“This app is fantastic! It’s great to know more about what my child actually does during pre-school. This app lets me see the activities that she participates in & the fun that she has. The photos are priceless! I would highly recommend this app”

Eve Glover

“I love being able to check in on my children’s activities on the child paths site. It’s great to see pictures of what they’ve been up to during the day! So much easier than having a build-up of papers, too!”

“With Child Paths, you are only ever a few clicks away from checking in on your little ones and sometimes seeing a photo of them having fun, covered in paint or playdoh can make your day and make things a little easier. You feel that you are connected to your child, and it can take away a little of the guilt that I sometimes have as a working parent when you can see that your child is being cared for and having fun. To be able to communicate with the centre via this app is a great function too as it can be very busy in the mornings and it is not fair to expect the poor teachers to remember everything that every parent says to them. I find Child Paths to be of great benefit to my family and me. Thank you.” “

Clodagh Crowley

“I signed up for the Child Paths app when my son started creche. From the beginning, I found it reassuring as it took him a little while to settle into creche and even though there were tears as I dropped him off I could see from the app that he was getting along fine once he settled. It’s not only great for checking on the basics like if he has eaten his meals but also from the photos posted by the staff I know what activities he has done that day. This makes talking to him about his day much easier, and he is drawn into the conversation when I can pick a topic such as painting, baking, playing outside, etc. instead of only asking what did you do today? Wouldn’t be without it now.”

Elaine Sherlock

“I was a bit unsure when the creche introduced this new system, particularly as there was a fee involved. However, I am totally converted. I love to see the photos of my little girl with her friends and teachers and all the activities they do during the day. I really appreciate the effort that they put into doing arts and crafts, storytime and the sensory play with such little ones. It is lovely to check in during the day while at work and see what she is up to! We are very happy with the system, and I consider it very much worth the monthly fee. Thank you!”

Grainne O’Carroll

“Child Paths is a wonderful application. It is so reassuring to be able to check in each day as much as I like, with just the click of a button to see how my little girl is getting on. As a parent, it can be tough having your little one away from you but being able to see pictures of them doing their various activities and having the ability to see their daily information tracked (such as eating and sleeping logs) is a great source of comfort. I honestly would be lost without it!”
