**Project description:**
The app replaces the paper notes between daycare/school and parents. As the daycare/school management, you can enter messages, appointments and PDF files in a personal and individual portal and send them directly to the parents.

There are mobile and web applications - (English/German languages)

**Client description:**
A real family company. Information is sent in paper form from the daycare center/school leading to chaos among parents. In Australia, where our founder originally came from, parents have been receiving all the information from the daycare and schools for many years simply via an app. Thus, the idea for the daycare and school info app was born in Germany!
Our user base is rapidly growing, and we are looking for developers to support us on all fronts, from new functionality to work on our app content management system, in-house developed CRM, or our websites. You can expect various challenges in a small team, where we communicate directly, give honest feedback and make decisions fast.
