Family life needs a concierge, not another app.

Ask once, in plain words. Dadamom finds the class, the drop-off care, the checkup or the weekend plan that fits each child, books it and remembers the rest.

For moms, dads, grandparents and caregivers. Free to join.

Why we’re building Dadamom

We love being parents. We want more people to feel that too.

We’re Pete and Lena, parents of two young kids, based in Almaty, Kazakhstan. From here we travel with them to Spain, Turkey, China, South Korea and the U.S.

In every country we started from zero, learning a new culture through the eyes of parents with small children. And everywhere we met the same thing: parents carrying all the planning alone, with no one to hand it to.

When family life feels this hard, fewer people start a family. Dadamom takes the logistics off parents’ shoulders, so raising kids feels possible again.
