Child profiles together
Manage children from the household settings. The child list gives each profile its own edit control and a place to add another child.
Multiple children · Elly for iPhone
One family. A care record for each child.
Siblings share a household, but their feeds, naps and daily care need their own records. Elly keeps children in the family workspace while tying care entries to the child selected.
Download for iPhoneSome shared features and insights require Elly Plus. See current plan details in the app.
Care entries for the right child
Choose the child before recording a feed, sleep or diaper change. Check that selection at handoff, particularly when two children have similar routines.
Access that fits the arrangement
A caregiver can be invited with access to selected children or all children. Use the arrangement that fits their responsibilities.

in your day.
Open Children in Settings
Review the profiles already in the family and add or edit the relevant child.
Select the child before logging

Review each child separately
Choose the child in insights when looking back at recorded care, and check caregiver access as the family’s needs change.
An everyday example
A baby and an older sibling share a nanny
The family keeps Oliver’s feeding and sleep entries with Oliver, while Mia’s care belongs with Mia. A shared shift can still show that Sophie is caring for both children during the same window.
Multiple children questions
The details, answered.
Can I manage more than one child in Elly?
Yes. The family settings include a Children list with separate profiles and an option to add a child.
Are siblings’ care records combined?
Care entries belong to the selected child. Check the child when entering care and when reviewing insights so you are looking at the intended history.
Can I use it for twins?
Separate child profiles let you keep each child’s records distinct. For twins or children with similar routines, check the selected profile before every entry to avoid mixing records.
Can a caregiver see only the child they care for?
Caregiver invitations support selected-child access as well as all-child access. Review the invitation settings against the actual care arrangement.
Can one shift include both children?
Yes. Calendar arrangements can include the relevant children, while their individual care entries stay attached to each child.
Where do I change a child’s profile?
Open Settings, then Children, and use the edit control for the relevant profile. Check that you are editing the intended child before saving changes.
Can I switch between all children and one child?
Yes. The child selector offers All kids and individual child profiles. Select the child whose care you want to review, and check the child attached to each new care entry.
