🔒 To add staff members, you'll need the Create Children and Staff permission enabled
When a new member of staff joins your setting, it is important to add them to Famly as soon as possible. Doing so ensures they have access to the tools and information they need to support children, communicate with parents, and carry out their daily tasks. Adding staff also allows you to assign roles and permissions so each team member has the appropriate level of access in the app.
This video will guide you through adding staff members to Famly:
