the app
real connections for modern motherhood
ParentConnect helps expecting and new moms find their people — right in their own neighborhoods.
We match you with a small, trusted pod of nearby moms and help you connect through in-person gatherings, cozy virtual meetups, and curated local recs.
Together, we’re creating a village that’s real, local, and built on trust.
