the shape of a room that holds twos
a mixed-age infant-toddler room, a dedicated toddler classroom, or a family child care home with a two year old and an older sibling. the writing at the end of the day is short, specific, and often bilingual. tiny signals is built for that shape, not for a preschool classroom scaled down.
asq-3 and asq:se-2, in age-window language
the assessment helper picks the right age window for a two year old and produces language a family can actually read. it does not replace the asq online platform where scores are entered. it helps write the follow-up conversation.
family handoffs at pickup
one minute at pickup, english and spanish side by side by default. for a family whose home language is not spanish, the write up helper can produce a family version in that language and the teacher keeps the last look.
biting, falls, and the honest incident note
twos bite, twos fall, twos test every gate. the incident helper produces an honest, structured note that a family can read at pickup without either party leaving upset.
what stays with the teacher
class list, drafts, and observations live against the teacher's account. asq scores, licensing paperwork, and subsidy reporting stay in the systems the program already uses.
what teachers actually open
these are the pages a classroom teacher reaches for on a normal week. nothing here is behind a paywall, a sales call, or a demo request.
- today, the one screen a teacher checks first
- asq write ups, age-window language for two year olds
- handoff, one minute at pickup, in the family's language
- incident, honest, structured, calm
- biting, the read for the week when a toddler is biting
- behaviors a to z, situation-first support, no labels on the child

- nyc 3-k for all, the year after in nyc
- nys upk outside nyc, the year after outside nyc
forward this to a teacher
the fastest way to know if tiny signals fits a classroom is to put it in the hands of the teacher in that classroom. the button below opens a blank email with a short note already written, so it takes one click to send.
