How to message another parent
In order to organize play dates, coordinate pick-ups and drop-offs, or just get to know other parents at your child's site, there is the possibility for parents to contact other parents. To message another parent:
Log in to Famly
Click on the 💬 speech bubble icon to see your Messages
Click on the 📝 pencil icon to start a new message
You have the option to select between different recipients by selecting the room your child is in and then the parents name - you are able to select multiple recipients. Parents can only see other parents' first names
Once you have chosen your recipients, you can start writing your message in the white box at the bottom of the page
You can add photographs or documents with the 'Upload' button, in the bottom left corner
When you're happy with the message, click Send
How to opt out of receiving messages from other parents
You can also choose to not have parents message you privately in the Famly app
Go to Your Settings by clicking on your profile photo in the top right corner of your page
Click on Notifications and Messaging
Under Conversation settings, click in the box labeled Do not allow other parents to message me privately
Click Save
