Each early learning service has a profile page, also known as the About page - this is where services can introduce their team and philosophy to families, as well as display their preferred contact details and host important documents.
This page is visible to a service's Storypark community - educators and family admins, but not non-Admin family members.
In this guide, learn about:
Accessing the About page
Information services can add to their About page
Adding, editing or deleting About details
Changing a service's timezone
Accessing the About page
This area can be accessed from the website or the Storypark for Families mobile app.
To access this area on the website, select About beneath your early learning service’s name in the left-hand menu:
Family admins have the option to access this information in Storypark for Families. From the Me tab, select the name of the service:
And then scroll through the service's About details:
Information services can add to their About page
The About page has three key parts:
1. a free text area
2. a place for your service's contact details
3. an area to attach important documents
The free text area
Here services can add the following kinds of information:
early learning service overview
mission statement
philosophies and values
history or story
curriculum
information about teaching staff
anything else that is important to your early learning service and community.
Contact details
Display the service's:
contact address
preferred contact number and email address (as a link that when clicked will open a new email)
website (as a hyperlink that when clicked will take someone to your website)
Documents
Upload useful files for educators and family members to download and refer to. PDFs, Word docs and photos can be uploaded and stored here. For example:
information sheets
forms
philosophy statements
policies
curriculums
newsletters
reports
a picture of the early learning service and staff
any other documents important to the early learning service and community.
The About page has a 150-document limit per service. If your service is at the limit, you'll see a "Max 150 reached" message when you try to add another document.
Services already above 150 documents keep all of their existing documents. The limit only applies when adding new ones while at or above 150 — deleting documents still works as usual.
Tip: The About page works best when families can find the things they actually need. If you're approaching the limit, it's worth a quick tidy - archive outdated policies, replace last term's newsletters with the current one, and remove old meeting minutes families no longer reference.
Editing your service's ‘About’ details
The about page can only be edited by a Storypark Admins. There are two ways they can access the editable information on a service’s profile from the website:
1. From any page, tap Edit next to the service’s name:
2. From the About tab. Select Edit in either the central text area, or next to the Contact details area:
When this page is first accessed, all fields except for the service’s name will be blank.
Changing a centre's timezone
If you need to change the service's timezone, tap the timezone displayed above the Contact address:
From the pop-up, select and save a different timezone for the service:
Note: Changing the service's timezone will reflect in the time shown on routines primarily.
