Apple-Bee for Nurseries is the perfect solution to improve parental engagement. Not only are our apps affordable and easy to use, but they are also loved by parents and provide a great selling point for any nursery.
Most nurseries have a website but how many parents actually use it? It is a necessity that all nurseries communicate quickly and effectively with parents which can be time consuming and expensive.
Nurseries are currently using various means of communication such as text messaging, email and newsletters but they all have a cost and the information that is sent can be limited. If you consider the costs of text messaging and printing costs alone it can run into the hunderds of dollars.
An app for a nursery has many benefits in that not only does it provide key information that parents can access very quickly but it can also be used as a method of communication to all of the parents associated with the nursery. Chisel Solutions have successfully built apps for a number of nurseries and all have been a great success.
Most of the parents now own a smartphone that is with them most of the time. If you look at the time, money and resources it takes to communicate with parents then what could possibly be better than reaching them directly on their mobile phone?

Think of the thousands it costs in printing, time and distribution for each item of communication that over time could be completely wiped out. Not only is it saving money but it also keeps the parents fully up to date with everything that is going on within the nursery.
Having an App also enables nurseries to reduce paper, ink, and wastage which helps to make nurseries greener and protect the environment. Reducing paper for all of the nurseries will save thousands of trees and reduce the carbon footprint they have.
Each one of our apps comes with its own AMS “App Management System” that each nursery can use to update the information and send out any push notifications. Our AMS has been designed from the ground up with simplicity and ease of use in mind. Once someone has been trained on how to use our system they can make updates and send important messages in seconds.!!
