This guide covers everything you need to know about managing classrooms in Neztio: creating rooms, assigning staff, managing rosters, and handling transitions when children move between classrooms.
Classroom Configuration
- Name: a descriptive room name, for example Caterpillars or Pre-K Room B.
- Capacity: the most children the room may hold, based on your license.
- Ratio: the required teachers-to-children ratio, for example 1:6.
- Staff assignments: the teachers assigned to the room. Ratios are calculated from these.
- Accepted programs: optionally limit the room to certain programs; age eligibility comes from the program.
Managing the Roster
The classroom roster shows all children currently assigned to the room. You can view each child's profile, attendance status, and guardian contacts directly from the roster view.
Moving Children Between Classrooms
- 1Open the child's profile from Enrollments.
- 2On the Overview tab, change the Classroom field.
- 3Save. The child moves right away and appears on the new room's roster.
When a child ages up into the next classroom, verify that the new room has capacity before making the move. Neztio will warn you if the move would exceed the room's limit.
