Creating a child profile is the first step in Educa. Once the profile is created, your team can document learning, assign teachers, add the child to a Class, and invite family members when you are ready to share.

Before creating a child profile, make sure you have:

Note: You can create the child profile before inviting family members. However, at least one family member should be invited before you start sharing learning with the child’s family.

After saving, the child will appear on the All Children page. If you assigned the child to a Class, they will also appear under that Class.

Note: Only linked teachers and invited family members can access the child’s profile.

If a child has a sibling already in Educa, you can link their profiles. This helps connect family members across the children’s profiles.

Tip: For three or more siblings, link two children first. Then open each remaining sibling’s profile and link them to one of the already linked children. Educa will automatically connect the whole sibling group.

You can update a child’s details at any time.

You can also allow parents to update selected profile details through your site’s Privacy Settings.

If you need to add several children at once, you can request a bulk upload.

For full instructions, see the Child Bulk Upload Guide.
