If your child's setting uses eyengage as part of their software package, parents can access it by clicking on the  icon on their parent portal or the eyparent app. eyengage is a social platform that nurseries can use to communicate with parents and staff by providing updates, making announcements, and requesting feedback.

Parents cannot create posts, but you can like and comment on the nursery's posts, and participate in polls.
