PINs at Cubby provide a secure and simple way for parents and guardians to check children in and out of daycare. Each adult connected to a family is automatically assigned a PIN during account creation, and you can update your PIN at any time.
Setting or Updating Your PIN
tap the navigation button in the top-right corner from any main section in the app.
Select Update My Account.
Scroll to the bottom of the form and enter a 4-digit PIN.
Press Submit.
If the PIN is already in use, you will be prompted to choose a different one.
💡 Tip: Each adult in a family account has their own unique PIN, including the primary contact.
Using Your PIN at Check In/Out
Enter your PIN on a kiosk-enabled tablet or phone at your daycare location.
A modal will appear showing a list of children linked to your account.
Select one or more children you want to check in or out.
Confirm your selection, and the system will log the check in/out instantly.
Once complete, you can verify the times by viewing the student Calendar tab in the Student Dashboard
Why PINs Matter
Security – Only authorized adults with valid PINs can check children in or out.
Flexibility – Multiple children can be checked in/out at once.
Accountability – Staff and managers can always see who dropped off or picked up a child, and at what time.
