The help I needed
School, Sports, Daycare, After School Care, Doctor Appts, Lesson… etc. It gets overwhelming. This App is the calm that all parents need.
Well Done
Finally able to keep our 4 kids schedules in order. Already saving us some valuable time. We don’t even need our hand written calendar anymore!
I let my husband build this app because I was tired of doing everything myself
My husband is the founder. I'm his wife, and I'm leaving this review because he asked me to — but also because it actually works.
For years I was the one carrying the entire family schedule in my head. Every practice, every pickup, every permission slip, every reschedule buried in a coach email that nobody else read. Every time Myles tried to help, I had to stop what I was doing to brief him, which somehow created more work than just doing it myself.
Parendipity changed that. It connects to Gmail, pulls out everything that matters for our family, and gives both of us the same view. Myles actually knows what's going on now. He shows up to the right field. He knows who's picking up Harper without texting me.
I didn't think an app could fix this. It's not magic — but it's pretty close.

I built this app because every time I tried to help my wife, I made things worse
Full disclosure: I'm the founder. But I'm also a dad of two who built this because every time I tried to ask my wife how I could help, I'd create more work for her than if she'd just done it herself. I was always drinking from a firehose, surprised by what was happening next, and dropping too many of the most important balls.
Parendipity connects to your Gmail, quietly works through your inbox, and organizes everything that matters for your family — practices, pickups, school events, deadlines — into one shared view for both parents. My wife no longer has to brief me on the family schedule like I'm a new hire. That alone is worth five stars.
The Today tab tells me every morning what kind of day we've got — hectic, full, or light. The pickup coordination means both of us know who has the kids without a single text. And yes, it has saved me from at least three "I thought YOU were getting Harper" moments.
I'm biased. But I'm also the most demanding user of this product, and I use it every single day.
