A private portal for families: their child's sessions and day, the observations you choose to share, absences, consent forms and invoices they can pay by card, all in your nursery's colours.
Parents and guardians, invited by the nursery.
By invitation only
Families cannot sign themselves up; you invite each guardian, and they set their own password.
Their child's day
Room, key person, weekly sessions and today's attendance, with the last month at a glance.
Shared observations
Observations you publish, with their photos and videos and the EYFS areas they cover.
Report an absence
Sickness, holiday or anything else, for a day or a date range; your team confirms it on the register.
Sign consent forms
Signed in the portal and recorded against the guardian's account with the date and time.
See and pay invoices
Every invoice billed to them, line by line, and a card payment button when you have connected Stripe.
Switched on for your nursery when you want it. About add-ons
Your branding
Your logo and colours throughout the portal.
Finance & Funding
Fee schedules, monthly invoices with funded hours deducted, card payments straight to your own Stripe account, and the termly funding claims your local authority asks for.
Learning & EYFS
Observations tagged to the EYFS areas, with photos, video and next steps, shared with families when you choose, plus the statutory progress check at two.
Mobile Apps
Apps for staff and families are coming in 2027, with the full launch. Until then, everything in Little Bees, the parent portal included, works in the browser on a phone or tablet.
