“ClassDojo is the best thing for parents and children.”

App Store review

The communication platform built for early childhood centers

Free for your program, and already on your families' phones. Share photos, daily updates, and announcements from one private place your whole team can use.

“For us as an Early Childhood Center, the communication piece has just been unmatched — especially for our infants and toddlers, where parents just want pictures of their kids and a way to communicate with teachers. The fact that ClassDojo is free means we can actually make it happen.”

Give families a window into their child's day

Early childhood is full of firsts, but families can't always be there to see them. Most days, they're waiting until pickup to hear how their child is doing. Meanwhile, your staff is juggling updates, questions, forms, and messages in different languages. ClassDojo brings it all into one simple place.

Love that!

Everything your center needs to keep families close

Photos and videos, off personal phones

Give families a window into the little moments, big milestones, and everyday magic they won't want to miss. Photos stay in ClassDojo, not on a teacher's personal phone or in a Facebook group.

Daily reports without the paper

Log meals, naps, activities and notes in seconds. Families get updates right on their phone. Staff report saving hours each week on paper daily sheets.

Messages in every family's language

Send updates, photos, and reminders in seconds, with automatic translation into 190+ languages so every family in your center stays connected.

Your families already have ClassDojo

Millions of parents already use ClassDojo with their older children's schools. Connecting them to your center takes minutes, with no new app to download and no accounts to chase.

Simple for staff, even with turnover

New staff are up and running the same day — no training, no IT. When someone leaves, the next person picks up right where they left off.

One account for every center you run

Directors can manage every center from a single account, send announcements that reach all families, and see a real-time feed of updates from across all sites.

Events, sign-ups, and reminders

Set up open houses, family conferences, and celebrations with sign-up and volunteer slots. Families get reminders, and events sync to Google Calendar.

Attendance in one tap

Check children in and out each day, with one-click check-in and built-in reporting when you need the numbers.

Free accounts for your whole team

Unlimited free staff accounts, with permissions and roles you control, plus staff messaging to keep every room in the loop.

Top of the class for privacy

We put privacy and trust first. We never share students’ information with advertisers, and we use the latest and best security practices to keep you safe at all times.
