Troubleshooting Guide

Trouble logging in? Here are a few things to check:

Check Your Email Address

Ensure the email address you enter on the sign-up screen matches the email address your invite code was sent to. If the email address is different, the account creation will fail.

Create an Account With the Correct Credentials

Logging in to Procare with the invitation code as your password will not work. You will receive an error that your email is invalid. You must first create an account.

Create an Account on the Website

Ensure you have created an account through the website before signing in on the Child care mobile app.
