Add Staff who are also Parents/Guardians

Prev Next

If you have a staff member who is also the parent/guardian of a child at your school, Procare offers a way for that individual to switch between the two accounts on the website and in the Child care mobile app.

Option 1 - They have been added as a staff or parent/guardian

If the individual has already signed up for a Procare account as a staff or parent/guardian, you can add them as a parent/guardian or staff (respectively) with the same email address they currently use to log in.

For individuals signed up as staff:

  1. Go to Staff Management > Staff.

  2. Select a staff member.

  3. Locate the Email field on the Profile page.

  4. “Signed up” displays in green next to the staff member’s email address.

For individuals signed up as parents/guardians:

  1. Go to My School > Students.

  2. Select a student in the parent’s/guardian’s family.

  3. On the Profile page, go to the Parent/Guardians section.

  4. “Signed up” displays in green below the parent’s/guardian’s name.

Option 2 - They have not been added as a staff or parent/guardian

If the individual has not signed up for a Procare account (staff or parent/guardian):

  1. Create a staff or parent/guardian account for the individual (only one account; do not create separate accounts for individuals with dual roles).

  2. The individual will receive an email with an invitation code to sign up for a Procare account.

  3. Once they finish signing up for an account and log in, follow the steps in Option 1 to locate their email address and add their dual role.
