Here’s how it works... With Fetching, you can create a secure profile and connect with friends and family you trust. This will enable you to build your Fetching support network to help you and your family when you need it. Whether that’s someone to do the school run, host a weekend playdate or look after your dog for a few hours. The Fetching app makes it simple. Of course we’re not all about asking - once you have connected with your Fetching friends on the app, you get the opportunity to support them in return. Our alerts will tell you when they need your help. All of our users are verified using government ID, so no-one can pretend to be someone they’re not. When you use the Fetching app for the school run, our system also connects with your child’s school so that they know exactly who is collecting your child each day. If the school is not already using Fetching, you can invite them via the app. Here are some other great features: - Request ‘care’ or ‘drop’ - maybe your child needs looking after for a few hours after school, or maybe they just need bringing home - Categorise your friends - some friends are great for dog dates but less good for the school run - Get alerted - your life is busy, so we make sure you are reminded about every event - Earn acorns - these are our loyalty points. You earn them every time you help out a friend and can exchange them for a gift from one of our partners Why Fetching? Aside from ensuring that everyone in your family is looked after as you return to the office, we remove the hassle or arranging informal childcare and the guilt that comes with asking for a favour. That’s because with Fetching, it is just as easy to return that favour as it is to ask for one. So aside from being free to use, we make your school runs, playdates and dog dates hassle free and guilt free too.
