What is a guardian?

Guardians manage and pay for lessons

A Guardian account is the account that pays for lessons, and sometimes manages the schedule, on a Dependent account. Usually, a Guardian is a family member, spouse, or friend of the Dependent.

Guardians have access to their own free TakeLessons accounts, where they can pay for their dependents' lessons, view and edit billing information, and, keep track of the lesson schedule. Guardians receive billing reminder emails and schedule notifications. Dependents have their own accounts, too, and can receive all the same reminders, except for billing notifications.

Unless a guardian is taking lessons of their own with you, they will appear underneath their dependent's name in your Roster. When a student has a guardian, the guardian's contact information will display on your roster, unless the student has their own contact information.

When a student has a guardian, their Student Details page will show their guardian's name, and will call out whether contact information belongs to their guardian.
