MEMBERSHIP

Member signup is now underway. To lock in your 3 year free PIONEER rate, it's important to send in your interest form to secure your PIONEER status offer.

The PIONEER program is a limited release opportunity. You will receive instructions to download the iOS or Android app to join. The app is not available in the app store during this limited release period. 

Our web interface will be available during general release.

Please join! During our research and testing, we heard loud and clear that aunts, uncles, grandparents, foster parents, step parents and caregivers are all part of the vital networks that contribute to the conversation and exchange of know-how. Given our initial focus on the special and critical needs communities, we found a lot of stakeholders who may not have a special / critical needs child themselves, but were advocates and supporting those that do. This is amazing and we want to encourage this kind of inclusive community.

Or course, we will be expanding beyond special / critical needs and into broader village topics over time. So getting into the platform early and helping  us map our own growth is also appreciated by the team at MyParent Cafe. See the Village Expansion FAQ's for more.

At this time, MyParent Cafe uses Google single sign on so we do not store personal passwords. We encourage all members to use an alias when completing their profiles. Members are encouraged to share some information in their 'about' section so that others can relate and help but no PII should be shared. No credit card information is needed during this PIONEER period.

Members accumulate points (BEANS) through activity (e.g. completing a profile, posting a question, answer and helping others). This helps the community know who to welcome as a new member and who to follow/support as a senior member. Members wishing to become Baristas and run a national village should demonstrate strong community contributions and commitment by adding to their bean total.

IRIS is a modern LLM trained to be a personal Coparent companion. IRIS will not give medical, legal for financial advice, but she will provide guidance on best or standard practices in almost any situation from conception to college.

Intentional trolling or hurtful sarcasm will not be tolerated. As a member based community, all members will be expected to adhere to the Code of Conduct. Membership privileges may be suspended or revoked. But let's all act in the common interests of the platform - we join because we all want a sense of connection and support.
