Kinderloop

LOOSH uses Kinderloop to share accident reports, program information, updates and observations with families. Educators will be taking photos of activities and children in the day to day activities in the centre for the purpose of developmental reporting and secure parent communication. This includes group photos shared with other family members from LOOSH.

If you do not wish for educators to take your child's photo you will still have access to all Kinderloop features, however photos containing your child will not be posted by educators.

Kinderloop photo permission - Please indicate below if you do or do not consent to have the image of your child/ren captured by educators for the purpose of developmental reporting & secure parent communication using our private Kinderloop. This includes group photos shared with family members of other children attending LOOSH.
