A nest with a golden egg on a branch

Welcome to ParaNest

One calm place for two homes. Messages, the calendar, expenses and records, shared by both parents.

Messages that stay put

A parent can't delete the other parent's messages, and edits keep the original. An optional tone check helps keep things calm.

One shared calendar

Your parenting schedule, holidays and swaps in one place, with change requests the other parent accepts or declines.

Expenses and receipts

Log what you spent for the kids, attach receipts, and see who owes what.

Records you can check

Export PDFs with a verification code anyone can check on our Verify page.

Safety tools

Protective order mode, quick exit, and hotlines. SOS alerts both parents and everyone in the chat where you send it, in the app. It does not contact 911.

English and Spanish

Each parent picks their own language.

Free and Plus

One Plus subscription covers the whole family, and the invited parent never pays. Prices are shown in the app before you buy.
