Sending a Request to a Parent

Child information, including information on each child's normal days and hours of care and the meals normally received while in care, is required to be collected upon enrollment and updated yearly afterwards. This article explains the parent experience in completing these forms.

To use this feature:

  • Click on Participants & Rosters.
  • Click on the name of the Parent/Guardian.
  • Choose one of the options:
    • Generate Request Link will give you a link that you can email or text or add in your child care management software. This option does not automatically send anything to the parent.
    • Send Request for Form will send an email and/or a text the parent or guardian with the link to complete the form. See this article for more about the parent experience with Ready Records.

If you do not see a box to "Send Request for Form" then either:

1. Your sponsor is not setup for electronic forms or

2. You haven't entered an email address and phone number for the parent


You will get a confirmation message at the top of the page that says, “Request Sent”.
