What Your Forest School Virtual Assistant Executes Daily
Free up 20 to 30 hours every single week from administrative paperwork so you can spend your time building shelters, guiding campfire cooking, mentoring woodland staff, and giving children true outdoor freedom.
Risk-Benefit Assessments & Weather Logging
Eliminate compliance stress and safety oversight. We log dynamic risk-benefit assessments (RBA), track local meteorological forecasts against wind threshold rules, and maintain site maintenance records.
- Logging daily weather checks (gust limits, wind chill, air quality, lightning)
- Updating seasonal risk-benefit matrices for tool use (whittling knives, bow saws)
- Documenting site boundary audits, tree hazard surveys & campfire protocols
Student Intake, Medical Waivers & Allergy Plans
Protect children in the woods with bulletproof health records. We audit medical intake forms, verify emergency contacts, catalog severe allergies/EpiPens, and collect insect/sunscreen authorizations.
- Chasing missing medical consent, tick-check waivers & photo releases
- Creating portable emergency medical binder sheets for group leaders
- Logging dietary restrictions, bee sting plans & medication schedules
Parent Communication & Muddy Gear Guides
Stop answering the same clothing questions every morning. We create visual seasonal gear guides (waterproofs, wool base layers, thermal wellies) and handle parent email/SMS inquiries with warmth.
- Designing Canva gear packing lists tailored to rain, snow, and summer ticks
- Sending broadcast notifications for sudden site closures or meeting point shifts
- Answering prospect inquiries regarding toilet setups, nap spots, and safety
Staff Ratios, DBS Checks & First Aid Compliance
Never risk an inspection violation. We track staff-to-child ratios in Brightwheel or Famly, monitor Paediatric Outdoor First Aid expiry dates, and maintain enhanced background check (DBS) audit logs.
- Tracking teacher qualification certificates (Level 3 Forest School, EYFS)
- Managing substitute educator rosters when instructors fall sick
- Maintaining staff training logs for food hygiene and safeguarding
Waitlists, Camp Bookings & Enrollment Pipelines
Keep your cohorts and holiday camps consistently full. We manage waiting lists in Sawyer, Jovial, or Airtable, launch seasonal registration waves, and process re-enrollment deposits.
- Launching Summer, Autumn & Spring holiday bushcraft camp tickets
- Automatically offering opened spots to next families on the waitlist
- Scheduling parent open-day visits and woodland orientation sessions
Tuition Invoicing, Subsidies & Expense Logging
Ensure your nature school remains financially robust. We generate termly tuition invoices, manage Tax-Free Childcare voucher reconciliations, track landowner lease payments, and log gear receipts.
- Setting up recurring monthly or termly direct debits in Stripe / QBO
- Reconciling state early education funding and government subsidies
- Logging shelter maintenance, tarps, wood, and tool replacement costs
