“ClassDojo is the best thing for parents and children.”
App Store review
YMCAs run on ClassDojo
Share updates, reminders, and announcements with families across every site, program, and camp you run. One platform that scales from a single site to your whole association, and it's 100% free.
“For us as a YMCA, 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.”

Keep families connected, even on your busiest days
Between multiple sites, changing schedules, and parents who are in and out in 30 seconds at pickup, it's easy for an update to get missed. ClassDojo gives your team one simple place to share reminders, photos, and announcements, so families always know what's happening.

Emre's been a great helper! He even stayed after today to help clean up.

Everything you need to run your Y
Every site, one account
Directors manage every site from a single account, send an announcement that reaches all families at once, and follow a real-time feed of updates from across the association.
Staff licenses, roles, and messaging
Unlimited free staff licenses, with roles and permissions you set. Message your team about a schedule change without starting another group text.
Family messages in any language
Send updates, photos, and reminders in seconds, with automatic translation into 190+ languages. Schedule posts ahead of time so a reminder lands when families are ready to read it, not when you happened to write it.
Photo and video sharing
Share photos and videos from after school, camp, and early learning so families can see their kids learning, playing, and thriving.
Events and Sign-ups
Create family nights, camp sign-ups, and volunteer slots, with automatic reminders for families and Google Calendar sync for your team.
Attendance
Check kids in and out in one tap, with daily attendance reports ready whenever your program needs them.
Daily updates from early learning rooms
In infant and toddler rooms, log naps, meals, and milestones as they happen, with a time-stamped report for every family.
Canva Newsletters
Build a newsletter that looks like your Y in Canva, then send it to every family from ClassDojo.
Simple for every staff member
Seasonal and part-time staff can get started in minutes, with no training day and no help from IT.
