Adding Sleeps

Adding Sleeps

In Dayshare you are able to record how many sleeps the child has had during the day and the total length of time the child has spent asleep. There are two scenarios that you would add these in. 

To add a sleep that has already happened in Dayshare. 

1.      Click/Tap on the Sleep button.


2.      Click/Tap on the purple plus button   to add a new sleep. You can add a sleep for a group of children by ticking the tick box next to their name and clicking on the plus button at the top.

 

 

3.      Once you have selected the child/children and clicked on the plus button. Enter the details of the sleep. You will need to enter a title, description and the duration of the sleep by entering the start and the end time. Once you are happy click “Save Sleep”.

 

4.      The Sleep tab will now show the number of naps taken that day, total time asleep that day, the duration of their latest nap and the time of their last nap.



To add a sleep that is currently taking place in Dayshare. 

If you are recording this when the child first falls asleep, you do not need to add an end time to their sleep. The sleep will not display in Parent Portal until the sleep as been completed. 

When looking at their dayshare record, it will display that they are "still sleeping" until you add the end time to their nap. 


                  

When the child has woken up, simply head to the sleep tap, find the child & push the "awake now" button. This will record the end of sleep time to be the time you selected the button. The sleep will then be added to Parent Portal.
