Troubleshooting

Permissions only appear for approved adults. If you see a “Pending” badge, the facility hasn’t approved them yet.
You can only remove adults from children where you are listed as the primary guardian. Contact your facility if you need help.
Double-check the phone number or email you entered. If the contact info has a typo, remove the adult and re-add them with the correct information.
Permission changes are managed by the facility. Contact your center’s staff to adjust sign-in or sign-out permissions.
