In Cubby, parents can create and manage their family account. Each family may include students (children enrolled in daycare) and additional family members such as parents, grandparents, or guardians.
This guide explains how to add students, invite family members, and update student details.
Adding a Student
Open the Family Dashboard from the app’s main navigation (the farthest icon to the right on the bottom navigation bar).
Tap the Plus icon on the top left of the screen, then tap Student.
Enter the student’s details, including:
Avatar Image
First Name
Last Name
Birthday
Tap Save.
✅ The student will now appear in your family list. Once enrolled in a location, their dashboard will unlock. In the meantime, when you tap on the student you've created, you will be taken to the enrollment and tuition setup area.
Adding or Removing Family Members
In addition to parents, you can add grandparents, guardians, or other caregivers. These members have limited feature access compared to parents.
To add a family member:
Go to the Family Dashboard.
Tap the Plus icon on the top left of the screen, then tap Adult.
Enter their information (name, relationship, email).
Tap Save.
They will receive an email invitation to join your family in Cubby.
To remove a family member:
From the Family Dashboard, select the member.
Long Press on the family member you wish to remove.
Confirm the removal.
⚠️ Removing a family member will revoke their access to Cubby for your family, however we won't delete any messages or comments they may have made.
