Managing kids and guardians

Updated 2026-09-02

Kids train on their parent's paperwork: guardians sign, get notified, and stay in the loop.

How a child joins

Add a child the same ways you add anyone: an invite from the app, a CSV import, or a walk-in at the kiosk. The date of birth is what makes MatPilot treat them as a minor; under-18s get a Minor badge and a guardian step wherever one is needed.

What the guardian provides

A guardian's name and email are captured during sign-up, and every waiver for a minor is presented to the guardian, not the child: the signature block names the parent signing on the child's behalf. Kiosk enrolment walks the parent through this on the spot.

The child's profile

The profile card carries the Minor badge, and the details section holds the date of birth and the guardian's email, so the desk always knows who to call.

Kids on the mats

Kids get their own belt ladders, kids-only classes are enforced by eligibility rules, and end-of-class photos respect a minor-photo block, so children never appear without consent.

Keeping parents in the loop

The Parents audience in announcements reaches every guardian in one send, and chat works with the guardian's account for anything individual.
