Important: To add rooms, you must be a KIDDO Manager for your service.
If you are the KIDDO Manager for your service, when you click on ‘Dashboard’ you will see a ⚙ ‘cog’ icon in the black bar at the top. Follow the steps below to ensure you get set up correctly.
If you are not the KIDDO Manager for your service, when you click on ‘Dashboard’ you won’t see a ⚙ ‘cog’ icon in the black bar at the top. You will need to ask your KIDDO Manager to allocate you to your room/s so you can get started using the KIDDO dashboard. Your KIDDO Manager can promote additional staff to the Manager role as well. This is your service’s decision on who has which roles.
1. Adding new rooms
In the management menu (access this via the 'cog' icon if you are a manager) you can:
- Click on 'Add room'
- Allocate each room a title and an age group
- For split rooms, you can choose which age group you allocate your room to. You may want to consider:
- How many children from each age group are in the room?
