## Reviews

### "My KangarooTime review" — 5.0/5

> **Ajshanique** | *21 July 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: My daughter attended an afterschool program and they used Kangaroo time. It allows you to see what time your child is dopped off and picked up and many other things.
> 
> **Cons**: I loved having the app. It felt good knowing I could monitor whether or not my child made it safely to the program. I don't have anything bad to say about it.
> 
> So overall, I had a very great experience using Kangaroo time. And I would recommend it to any childcare program.

### "All You Need in One\!" — 5.0/5

> **Daria** | *14 February 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how Kangarootime is a multi-functioning app\! I can process billing, maintain attendance records, keep contact information for all families, manage a healthy communication system with families, send photos to families and manage a secure keyless entry system for entry into my center.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't have much negative feedback on Kangarootime. Overall, I am very pleased with the service.

### "Great software for child care centers" — 4.0/5

> **David** | *13 December 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Software gives our Administrators constant visibility to room attendance and staffing.  Parents love the smartphone app and the ability to communicate directly with Teachers and Administrators.  Teachers love how the software helps them easily enter updates on the children without having to type out full sentences on the tablet.
> 
> **Cons**: The software is relatively new so they are still adding and improving some functionality.  Billing lacked some features that we wanted initially but they have been responsive to requests for improvements.  Reporting is also limited but is expanding.
> 
> Kangarootime has helped us improve communication with parents and teachers, and eliminate lots of paperwork.  The Kangarootime team has been great to work with.  They are very responsive and supportive.

### "Daily use" — 4.0/5

> **Julie** | *23 February 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the messaging feature.  It makes it easy to communicate with parents and staff.&#10;&#10;The customer support is wonderful, especially Eric.  He is my go-to guy\!
> 
> **Cons**: I wish there was an easy way to receive a notification on the Admin side.  I know parents receive a notification when they have a message, it would be nice if Admin could receive a notification on their phone or computer when they have a new message.  Often, I am away from my desk, so this would make it easier.
> 
> I enjoy using Kangarootime.  I'm still learning, and looking forward to new updates.
