UrbanKiddie 2.1

Mom? Dad? Pregnant? Recently moved? Expat?

UrbanKiddie is a parenting-group App that facilitates connections among expecting or current parents residing in local neighborhoods. The platform serves as a supportive space for advice, camaraderie, and discussions on various topics related to pregnancy, babies, toddlers, older children, relationships, family dynamics, work-life balance, and community engagement.

The app enables users to engage with posts and responses from other members. Individuals can pose questions and share valuable resources in a global chat that unites the entire community, or participate in region-specific discussions through a dedicated regional chat or selected "home neighborhood." Users have the flexibility to expand their network by adding and connecting with neighboring areas, frequented spots, hometowns, or grandparents' locations. This functionality allows parents to seamlessly tap into local communities while traveling, enabling them to seek advice, discover resources, find playgrounds, and explore activities—a unique feature reminiscent of weather apps tailored for parental social networking.

Moreover, the app incorporates a jobs and exchange board within each neighborhood segment to facilitate hiring reliable household assistance or exchanging goods within local families.

Interact. Inquire. Share. Engage.

Free to download and user-friendly!
