FAMILIES

Create meaningful partnerships with families

Mana was designed to drive real family engagement that keeps children learning. By giving parents clear, personalised at-home activities tied directly to your curriculum, Mana removes the guesswork and paperwork from family communications. The result? Happier families, stronger centre reputations, and more time for your educators to focus on what matters most—nurturing each child’s growth.

Meaningful developmental insights. Rich family engagement.

In early childhood education, family engagement shouldn’t resemble scrolling through social media. The software you use should instead lay the groundwork for a powerful educator–family partnership centered around each child’s learning.

Over 80% of families prefer Mana over their existing software provider

Magic Moments

Magic Moments help families understand their child’s learning.

Not every learning moment needs a photo. Some simply deserve to be lived, not documented. Magic Moments let you capture only the key developmental milestones that truly matter. The result? No endless scrolling, no overwhelming feeds — just meaningful highlights families will treasure.
  • Mana curates moments of real learning that families will love and treasure.
  • Give parents tailored, easy-to-understand updates — no jargon, no fluff.
  • Beautiful formatting and design touches are automatically applied to every update.
COMMUNICATION

Families never miss a moment with Chats and Catch ups.

No more untracked chats or lost content. Mana provides structured, ongoing conversation channels for each child, ensuring seamless communication between educators and parents.
  • One dedicated thread per child — All messages, updates, and history stay in one place
  • Automatic transitions — When a child moves rooms, the new educator has full context immediately
  • Centre-wide visibility — Managers can oversee conversations, ensuring professional, aligned communication
  • Parents stay informed. Educators stay supported. No more dark spaces where information gets lost.
COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS WITH FAMILIES

Collaborate together on Journeys.

Family engagement isn’t just about updates; it’s about shared goals for each child. With Mana’s collaborative Journeys feature, educators and parents set and track developmental goals together, so everyone is working toward the same outcomes.
  • Parents share their aspirations for their child through a guided goal-setting process
  • Suggested goals flow seamlessly into educators’ planning tools
CONTINUE AT HOME

Empower families to continue every child’s learning at home.

With Mana’s “Continue at Home” suggestions, every learning experience becomes an invitation for families to join in. We turn everyday moments into guided, research-backed prompts that parents can pick up the moment their child walks in the door—so learning never takes a pause between school and home.
  • Personalised, practical ideas
