Nido gives parents a live view of their child's school bus with arrival alerts to their doorstep, gives drivers a one-tap route app, and gives schools full control — including instant SOS.
No parent sign-ups. No hardware to install. Works on the phones your drivers already carry.
Three simple apps and a school dashboard, working together in real time.
Parents watch the bus move in real time from the moment the driver starts the route — no calls to the school office.
Each family sees the time to their own stop, so mornings run on time and nobody waits at the gate.
Bus started, bus approaching your stop, and "reached school safely" — delivered straight to the parent's phone.
Parents can alert the school instantly — with their location attached — or call the school office in one tap. Admins get an urgent alert that cuts through silent mode.
Driver or parent can confirm a child boarded or got off — a simple acknowledgment trail for peace of mind.
One tap tells the driver in advance to skip the stop — no more waiting outside an empty house.
No public sign-ups. The school creates every parent and driver login (phone + PIN) — you decide exactly who gets access.
Manage buses, drivers and children, watch every bus on one live map, and respond to SOS alerts — from any browser.
Your buses, routes and children go into the dashboard. Each child is linked to their bus and their parent's phone number.
Every driver and parent gets a simple phone + PIN login from the school — copy it from the dashboard and send it on WhatsApp. Nothing to sign up for.
That's the driver's whole job. Tracking, arrival alerts and notifications flow to every family automatically — even with the driver's phone in their pocket.
Nothing on-premise. Drivers install the Nido Driver app on their Android phone, parents install Nido Parent, and the school manages everything from a web dashboard in any browser. There are no GPS devices to buy or fit to the bus.
The school creates each parent's login — their phone number plus a PIN — and shares it directly. There is no public sign-up, so only families your school has registered can ever see a bus.
No. Every school's data is fully isolated — buses, children, drivers and alerts are only visible to that school's own accounts, enforced at the database level.
Yes. Once a route is started, location sharing keeps running in the background — with a visible notification on the driver's phone so it's always transparent — even if the phone is locked.
Parents have a one-tap SOS that alerts the school instantly with their location attached, or dials the school's emergency number directly. School admins receive an urgent alert designed to cut through silent mode.
A typical school is live within a day: we load your buses and children, you share the logins, and drivers just tap "Start Route" the next morning.
Track your child's bus live, get arrival alerts, boarding confirmations and one-tap SOS. It's free — your school gives you the login.
