Everything about each child in one place: allergies, medications, dietary needs, emergency contacts, and the grown-ups who love them — every linked guardian, with their own secure access.
Child profiles
Everything about each child, in one trusted record.
Allergies, medications, emergency contacts, and family links — kept current in one place, and surfaced exactly where your staff need them during the day.
One record, whole child
No more flipping between binders and sticky notes.
A substitute teacher on her first morning should know as much about a child's allergies as the teacher who's been there three years.
Each child's profile holds the things a center actually needs at a glance: allergies, medications, dietary needs, emergency contacts, and every linked guardian. When a parent updates a phone number or a doctor adds a new medication, there is one record to change — not five copies scattered across classroom folders.
Guardians link directly to the child's record, which means messaging, photo sharing, pickup authorization, and the parent portal all know exactly who belongs to whom. Add a family once, and the relationship carries through everything else DayLynx does.
Photo and media consent is tracked per child, right on the record — signed at enrollment, changeable by the family at any time. Staff never have to guess whether a child can appear in classroom photos; the profile knows.
Alerts that travel
Health alerts that follow the child — not the filing cabinet.
On the roster
Teachers see allergy and health alerts next to each child’s name from the moment the day starts.
At attendance
Check-in surfaces the same alerts, so the person greeting a child at the door knows what matters.
At mealtime
Serving lunch to eighteen kids is not the moment to go look something up. Alerts appear right on the meal-logging screen.
At pickup
The end of the day gets the same visibility as the start, all the way through the door.
For a deeper look at keeping this information current and useful, read our guide on managing child allergy information, or see how profiles fit into a complete childcare management platform. Access to records is role-based, every action lands in the audit trail, and each center's data stays fully isolated — because a child's record deserves the most careful handling in the building.
Common questions
Child records, answered.
Allergy and health alerts follow the child through the day — they appear on the roster, at attendance, at mealtime, and at pickup. Staff don’t have to remember to open a file; the alert finds them where they’re working.
Media consent is tracked per child. Parents sign a photo-permission form at enrollment and can change their mind at any time — and DayLynx honors whatever the current answer is.
Role-based access means staff see only what they need for their job, and each family sees only their own child. Every look and change is captured in a complete audit trail, and each center’s data is fully isolated from every other center’s.
