The web to help parents

Il web aiuta i genitori
Comfortably seated on the sofa, a device and a connection are enough to enter a world of comfort and 'utility' specifically designed to accompany the life of parents.

Useful to find a pediatrician

To give a few examples, SOS Pediatrician is an app that allows you to quickly find a pediatrician available to carry out a private home visit or to set up a pediatric video consultation . In times of COVID, obviously, the choice is to focus above all on online appointments, which remains an excellent service when parents have difficulty finding a pediatrician available quickly to resolve any doubts. The costs for each consultation are indicated on the website.

For those looking for a babysitter

Then, the platforms for looking for babysitters are teeming. With just a few clicks it is possible to view all the babysitters in the area , evaluate their profiles and contact them, to then define the interview and choose the ideal candidate. There are several sites available, including Sitly, Le Cicogne, Sitterlandia .

To organize a trip with children

Tribe Trip , on the other hand, is a tour operator specialized in travel: thanks to this site it is possible to book trips by coordinating with other globetrotting families (with children).

Utility for learning

And there is no shortage of sites and apps more focused on education: from Duolingo, for learning foreign languages , to Pianeta Bambini, full of fun materials for the entertainment of the little ones , divided by age.

Parent communities

But given that the web is also aggregation, there is no shortage of communities dedicated to mothers and fathers. Including single parents, as in the case of Gengle : born as a social network (in the intrinsic sense of a social network) precisely to encourage the socialization of single parents , today Gengle offers free psychological consultations . Gi Family is another community to offer answers to all typical parental questions: why isn't my baby sleeping? Why doesn't he eat? How do you handle the terrible two? The idea is to create an extended family, a group of parents who can discuss their doubts, even with the support of specialists. Informed Parent provides a monthly cost to enter the reserved area and therefore take advantage of the consultancy.

Groups on Facebook

Communities are also very popular on Facebook, such as MaMi Club, a private group with over 29,000 members, or rather members, given that it is reserved for mothers who feel the need to confront each other. And we know how important it is, especially in the first years of your child's life.
According to the We Are Social 2020 survey, 82% of Italians are active online and 58% are on social networks. Smartphones are confirmed as an increasingly widespread tool, with 36 million users.
