Childcare roles and privacy the right access for each person

Manage staff permissions, family access, consent, and school records in one connected system.

Example shown with demo data

You can…

  • Assign owner and organization administrator roles.
  • Assign director and assistant director roles.
  • Assign educator, front desk, food service, and transport roles.
  • Link guardian access to children.
  • Control access through role-based permissions.
  • Adjust individual staff permissions.
  • Assign locations and rooms.
  • Manage enrollment and photo consent separately.
  • Remove staff access.
  • Export school records and use managed account deletion.

Access follows responsibility

Owners, directors, educators, support staff, and guardians need different information. Ashby checks roles and assignments so people can do their jobs without automatically seeing every record.

Keep control of your school’s information

Families manage the consent choices available to them. Owners can export school records and use the managed deletion process when leaving.

Report and message drafting uses selected topics and options. Ask Ashby matches your question to Help guides inside Ashby; OpenAI receives only the matched guides and a general staff role, not your question or conversation. Keep personal details out of product-help questions. The owner’s optional drafting setting and product Help are separate.

How it works

  1. Invite each person with the role that matches their work.
  2. Assign relevant locations and rooms, then review permissions.
  3. Keep consent and access current as staff and families change.

Common questions

Can two staff members see different fields on the same child?

Yes. Access can differ by role and assignment, including which fields a person may view.

Does photo consent come with enrollment consent?

Photo sharing is a separate choice. Enrollment consent does not automatically permit photo sharing.
