There are a few different ways we can document a child to share with their families.

1. We have a Lillio hi mama app. We share their daily reports such as how how much they ate their meals, nap time, when we change their diaper, when they need more clothing/diapers and what they do throughout the day.

2. We also have incident reports on behaviours and accident reports if they get hurt.

3. We can also let our manager to email their parents

4. We can message them on the Lillio app.

The most i have used to share documents to their parents is the Lillio hi mama app.

Seeing children growing at daycare makes my heart break because once they start, they are really shy or nervous because they are used to being home with either one of their parents or guardians. Once they are used to coming to daycare daily, we see them grow, we watch them get along with others, we see them talk daily to one another. Seeing the children do their work and finishing them is a memorable one for me because they were shy first time they came to daycare. We tell their parents how they’re day went and show them what they do during their stay at daycare, we have an app about what they had throughout the day. What time they went to sleep and wake up. Showing their parents what they do at daycare. Seeing parents make improvement at home, parents telling us what they like to do. What they like to eat or not, we try to convince them to try different food.

Different ways a child is growing and developing.

This photo was taken in December, 2025. During our holiday trip to Arviat. He wanted to see how tall he is now when he saw the measuring tape, every now and then he likes to check his height and how much he’s grown. He has developed how to grow and make friends, during our time in Arviat he had so much fun experiencing new things, making new friends and learning Inuktitut. Some days like the other day he asked me, “Mom, remember my friends pj in Arviat? I really miss him. Can we go back to Arviat soon?” He developed memories and brings it up sometimes.

There are different ways to document and share with families that their child is growing and developing, which can include:

1. The Lillio (formerly Hi Mama) app, where we can add in the milestones reached for each child. We can also update what they ate, what time they went to sleep and woke up, and what mood the child is in.

2. We can have a notebook to write little notes about the child’s development

3. We can use a growth chart for their physical height developing, and add their names on there along with the date

4. We can use a voice recorder to document through audio.

5. We can take pictures/videos with the iPad and show the parents at the end of the day when they are picking up their child.

A few times I sent pictures through the Lillio app to parents of their child, and at the end of the day, the parents would talk about how they enjoy seeing pictures of their children during daycare.

a child that attends the daycare, when he first started going, we was a hyper child. Running away from the teachers, getting distracted about anything and everything, not fully speaking, and getting into everything. But today, he doesn’t run away, he talks in sentences, he writes good, he cuts papers nicely and helpful to other children

We can document their growth by writing their developments on paper, through notes, using the Lillio app. We can also send emails or talk to parents in person about their new skills.

Different ways we can share children’s growth and development with parents, we can show the parents their craft work, we can keep one piece of paper each month in a folder. Before they’re graduating we can show both parents and guest how much progress the child had made.

We can also send parents picture through the app called Lillio, send pictures to the parents with a description, with this app as a parent you should be able to save the pictures to your phone.

We can also have one Friday a month or every couple months of “show and tell” to show parents their children’s progress and how much the children have been growing and developing with their work.

At daycare we use the Lillio, photo, notepad, we also talk to the parents when they come to the daycare to pick up their children, how we tell the families is we tell them they did so good when they were doing arts and crafts developing cognitive motor skills (gaining knowledge, thinking) , or when they shared the toys and played well with the other children’s, how much they love to dance in the daycare, physical motor skills …

What are some different ways that you can document and share with families that their child is growing and developing?

We could speak to the parent or guardian when the child is being dropped off or picked up.

We use the Lillio App to communicate using the activities they did, what they ate and how much.

Using emails.

Simple phone calls to the guardians/parents to say how much the child is developing.

You can use a developmental domains on paperwork, check back in with another different paper to see if the child has improved. Share on your personal notepads to keep track or if they learned something new that you know of, you can tell the parent(s) of the child. Lillio, the app that we use- formally himama to keep them updated, most times we don’t have time but it keeps track of their diaper changes, snack, lunch times, moods, activities-etc..

Share with the parent(s) on how their day was at the end of day and what they did at daycare
