Daily parent communication at early education centres involves manually composing, formatting, and sending activity reports across multiple channels. Staff spend significant time rewriting messages for email, SMS, and messaging apps, duplicating photos, and tracking delivery status.
Automation transforms raw activity notes into polished daily reports and distributes them across all parent communication channels simultaneously. The system respects parent preferences, tracks delivery, and maintains a complete audit trail in the centre records.
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
Automation detects new activity notes added to the centre's activity log. The trigger fires when a room leader completes and saves the day's notes.
The automation reads the activity notes, extracts key details (child names, times, activities, observations), and formats them into a structured daily report template.
Automation queries the parent contact database to fetch email addresses, phone numbers, and messaging preferences for all enrolled families.
The automation creates personalised email and SMS versions of the daily report, tailoring the tone and detail level for each communication channel and family.
Automation sends the email report to all parents, using BCC to protect email addresses and including attached photos from the day.
Automation sends a brief SMS summary to parents who have opted in to SMS notifications, with a link to the full report.
Automation posts the daily report and photos to a private channel for parents who use, with reactions enabled for acknowledgement.
Automation records the communication event, including timestamp, channel, recipients, and delivery status, creating an audit trail for compliance.
