About Us

Our Philosophy

Ask any woman what she loves most about her friends and the answer will be unconditional support. Whether you’re looking for dating advice or diaper advice, you trust your friends’ opinions, so we figured we’d make an online community where you can share and seek advice about motherhood with the people you trust most.

Just like the proverbial village that helps to raise a child, everyone has to pitch in. This means that we’ve designed an intuitive site to help everyone better organize their findings and tidbits of advice for themselves and each other. It’s time to use the internet for good! Because even on those days you feel lonely and overwhelmed, we’ll be here.
