📱 Prevalence
92%
of teens have smartphones — schools bear the safeguarding responsibility during school hours.
⚠️ Cyberbullying
42%
of students experience cyberbullying — most of it through school-provided platforms.
⏱ Screen time
6–9h
daily screen time on school and personal devices — largely unmonitored by existing tools.

How It Works
What schools actually get — explained simply.
No jargon. Here's what DNS filtering, AI detection, and web blocking mean for your students, staff, and IT team.
DNS Filtering
Block harmful websites before they ever load
DNS filtering stops harmful sites at the network level — before a browser ever reaches them. Instead of blocking content after it's downloaded, KidsNanny intercepts the lookup and returns a safe response.
Schools get a unique DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) endpoint. Configure it on your router once, and every device on the network — laptops, Chromebooks, phones, BYOD, guest Wi-Fi — is filtered automatically.

- Enforce SafeSearch on Google, Bing, YouTube, and DuckDuckGo
- Whitelist specific YouTube channels for classroom use
- Rich browsing analytics without invading individual privacy

AI-Powered Detection
Context beats keywords — every time.
Keyword filters trigger on single words without context. A student saying "I want to kill this math test" gets flagged the same as someone in genuine distress. Staff drown in false alarms and miss what matters.
KidsNanny uses three specialised classifiers that have processed 1.7 billion+ records to date:
- Text — emails, chats and documents read with full sentence context
- Document — essays, shared Docs, and attached files
- Media — images and video scanned for explicit, violent, or self-harm content
Every incident comes with human-readable reasoning. No black box — your counsellors know exactly why a message was flagged and what to do next.
High Risk
Teams · 14:22
Classifier: text · Reason: Self-harm intent with temporal specificity ("tonight"). Isolation language present. Recommend immediate counsellor review.
Medium Risk
Google Drive · 10:08
Classifier: document · Reason: Bullying pattern detected in shared document targeting a named student.
Low / Ignored
Gmail · 09:47
Classifier: text · Reason: Figurative speech — "killed that exam". No safety signal. Keyword filters would have flagged this.
Website Blocking & Parental Controls
Why schools need to block websites and apps.
Schools are legally and ethically responsible for what students see on school-issued devices — and increasingly on personal devices used at school. Blocking isn't about restricting learning; it's about protecting focus, safety, and compliance.
The three reasons schools implement web and app blocking:
- Safeguarding — keep students away from explicit content, predators, and harmful communities
- Focus & instruction — reduce distractions during class with scheduled downtime
- Network hygiene — block malware, phishing, and bandwidth-heavy sites that disrupt learning
KidsNanny combines DNS filtering (network), app control (device), and content monitoring (platform) so every layer is covered without conflicting tools.

FAQ
Questions school leaders ask us first.
What is DNS filtering and why do schools need it?
DNS filtering blocks harmful websites at the network level — before a browser ever loads the page. Schools need it because device-by-device filters miss BYOD devices, guest networks, and newly registered threat domains. KidsNanny provides a unique DNS-over-HTTPS endpoint per school group that filters every device on your network across 47 content categories.
How does AI-powered detection differ from keyword filtering?
Keyword filters flag individual words without context, missing coded language and image-based threats while generating enormous false-positive volumes. KidsNanny's three classifiers (media, document, text) have processed 1.7 billion+ records to date, understanding intent and returning human-readable reasoning for every incident.
Why should schools block specific websites and apps?
Schools are legally and ethically responsible for student safety during school hours and on school-issued devices. Blocking protects students from explicit content, predators, and cyberbullying, and reduces distraction during instruction so teachers can focus on learning outcomes.
Which platforms does KidsNanny for Schools monitor?
Google Workspace (Gmail, Drive, Chat, Classroom, document comments), Microsoft 365 (Outlook, OneDrive, Teams, shared content), and school-issued devices on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and Chrome OS — all from one admin dashboard.
How long does deployment take?
Schools can go live in as little as 1–2 hours. Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 connect via standard admin consent in under 15 minutes. DNS filtering requires a one-line change on your router or firewall. Devices enroll via MDM push or QR code in seconds.
How much does KidsNanny for Schools cost?
The complete bundle is $25 per student per year — significantly lower than other school safety platforms, which typically charge $30–$50+ per student. Volume discounts are available for districts, multi-academy trusts, and universities.
Is KidsNanny suitable for universities and higher education?
Yes. KidsNanny scales from single K-12 schools to multi-campus universities. Universities typically deploy DNS filtering on residence networks and lab devices, alongside content monitoring on institution-issued devices, with configurable policies that respect adult student privacy.
How does KidsNanny handle student privacy?
KidsNanny is built on the principle of minimum necessary access. Only flagged content is surfaced to administrators; normal student activity is never stored in reviewable form. Schools control data retention, regional hosting, and who can view incidents.
