The first parent network with government ID verification, built by a dad who couldn't find one.
The problem nobody talks about
Moving to a new neighborhood with young kids is quietly one of the loneliest experiences in modern life. You're surrounded by thousands of families and you know none of them. Facebook groups are noise. Nextdoor wasn't built for this. And walking up to a stranger at the playground hoping they'll become your kid's best friend requires a level of social confidence most of us just don't have on a Tuesday morning.
I moved to Chantilly, Virginia with my 3-year-old son and spent months trying to solve this the hard way. Then I built the easier way.
Hey! I built something I think you'd actually use as a parent ā it's called PlayDates, and it helps parents find nearby families with kids the same age for playdates.
No Facebook noise. No strangers. Just zip code, phone verification, and both families have to say yes before anyone can message.
I'm just starting out and your honest feedback would mean a lot.
