Empowering Parents in the Digital Age: Introducing the Kids360 App

At Parade College, we are committed to supporting not only the academic growth of our students but also their wellbeing—both online and offline. In today’s fast-paced digital world, it is more important than ever for parents and carers to have clear, practical tools to help guide their children through the challenges of growing up in a connected world.

That is why we are excited to highlight Kids360, an innovative app designed to empower families with insights and tools to help young people navigate the digital landscape safely and positively.

What is Kids360?

Kids360 is a comprehensive parental support app that gives you real-time information about your child’s digital world—without invading their privacy. It helps parents and carers stay connected, informed, and involved in their child’s online and emotional wellbeing.

Key Features and Benefits

• App Monitoring
  Understand which apps your child is using the most and how much time they are spending on them. Kids360 helps you spot potential overuse or areas of concern such as social media or gaming apps.
• Screen Time Controls
  Set healthy screen time limits and schedules to help your child strike the right balance between online and offline life.
• Location Tracking
  Stay reassured by knowing where your child is. The app provides live location tracking with geo-fencing features, allowing you to set safe zones and receive alerts if they leave those areas.
• Digital Habits Overview
  Kids360 offers clear and easy-to-read summaries of your child’s app usage patterns, helping to start meaningful conversations about responsible device use and time management.
• Non-Intrusive
  Unlike some monitoring apps, Kids360 respects your child’s privacy. It focuses on behaviours and trends rather than accessing private messages or personal content.
• Supports Positive Conversations
  With its intuitive dashboard and alerts, the app serves as a bridge to open dialogue between parents and children, helping to build trust and mutual understanding.

Why Parade Recommends Kids360?

As part of our wider wellbeing and digital citizenship initiatives, Kids360 aligns with the values we promote at Parade College: responsibility, awareness, and partnership. It gives parents a tool to stay engaged in their child’s digital life without taking control away from the child themselves.

By using apps like Kids360, parents can support their sons in becoming responsible and resilient digital citizens—learning to manage their time, make thoughtful choices, and stay safe online.
