The early childhood sector is changing. New generations of families are arriving with children in hand and screens in their pockets. Parents are asking us to email them, or openly asking us whether we have an app for that, whenever we hand them a notice or ask them to look at our beautifully designed documentation book.
Hand in hand with these developments come new companies, new technology platforms and new sales people knocking on our doors asking whether we’d like to sign up to help us communicate, document or administrate more efficiently and effectively.
