A kindergarten website in Călărași, written for grandparents too
Călărași is surrounded by fields, and many grandparents have never moved away from them. They live in Modelu, Cuza Vodă or Grădiștea, keep the vegetable garden — some still work a few acres — and come into town in the morning or at four to fetch their grandchild. For a private kindergarten here, this means the person at the gate is often not the one who chose it.
The parent reads the website once, in the evening, while deciding. The grandparent opens it differently: with the letters enlarged in the phone settings, with a finger that struggles to hit a small link, and most of the time they would rather call than search. MPO Web Studio writes and builds kindergarten pages for both of these readers. For a demo under your kindergarten's name, one WhatsApp message is enough, and you pay nothing.

The fields decide who comes to the gate
In winter, at four o'clock, the same person usually comes to the gate. In spring things get tangled: grandpa has the garden to plant and the land to prepare, summer brings the harvest, and the trip to kindergarten passes from hand to hand — to grandma, to an aunt, to the neighbour across the landing, to the parent who asks to leave work early. So, from one season to the next, a kindergarten in Călărași sees new faces who don't know the house rules: what time you come in, where you wait, which spare clothes stay in the locker, whom to talk to about a harder day. Each new person learns everything from scratch, usually in a rush, at the door. When these things are written down somewhere, anyone in the family reaches the gate already knowing what to do.
What gets lost between the gate and home
Whoever brings and fetches the child becomes, without meaning to, the family's postman. At pick-up, the teacher tells grandma that the show is on Friday and a white shirt is needed, that the little one coughed a bit after the nap, that from Monday the morning time moves. Grandma carries the news home, and in the evening the parent gets half of it, without the exact day. It works the same way in reverse: “no milk for him today”, “his dad's coming later”. In Călărași, where so many days start and end with a grandparent, the kindergarten gate is the main link between you and the family — and also the most fragile. Things that don't change from day to day — the hours, the rules, the backpack list, the days off — shouldn't have to travel that way. Written down once, for the whole family, they leave the gate free for what happened today.
The demo goes past the grandparents first
In the free demo we prepare a page designed for the person who comes to the gate every day. The letters are large and don't break the layout when the phone enlarges them further. The words are the household's, not the regulations': “what to bring in the backpack”, not “required materials”. The phone number appears as a big button that calls directly, because grandparents call, they don't type, and next to it it says at what times someone answers. The hours, the backpack list and the days off fit on one screen and print on a single sheet, which you hand out at enrolment or the family sticks on the fridge. Show the demo to a grandparent from your group and tell us, in one message, where they got stuck; that goes into the single round of revisions included. You receive it on WhatsApp and pay nothing until you've seen it. The starting price is 290€, publication takes a few days, and for 7 days after launch we fix anything that doesn't work.
Frequently asked questions
Grandparents call, they don't send messages. How do they find our number when they open the site?+
They find it straight away: a big button at the top of every page that starts the call directly, with no digits to copy. Next to it we write the hours when someone answers, so grandpa doesn't call during the afternoon nap and think nobody's there. The WhatsApp button stays further down, for parents who prefer to write in the evening.
Can we also have a printed sheet for grandparents, with the same information as the site?+
Yes, and it's best if it really is the same. We build the grandparents' page so that it fits on a single A4 sheet when you print it: hours, what to bring, days off, the phone number. When something new comes up, you update the site first and then print again, so the sheet on the fridge and the page on the phone never contradict each other.
Grandma enlarges the text on her phone, and many sites fall apart then. How will ours look?+
We build the demo to cope with text enlarged from the phone's settings and check it exactly that way before sending it to you. The pages rearrange into a single column, the buttons stay big and nothing runs off the screen. The best test is yours: open the link on the phone of a grandmother from your group and see whether she finds the pick-up time on her own.
Is the page for grandparents charged separately from the rest of the site?+
No, it's part of the site, just like the schedule page or the team page. Everything starts from 290€, and we give you the exact amount, with everything it covers, in writing when we send you the demo. If you'd rather start with a single page, the grandparents' part fits there too, as its own section.
