App Creates Digital Village To Raise Kid

They say it takes a village to raise a child, but a new app called KangaDo [1] is bringing that idiom into the 21st century.

The app digitizes your village and lets you easily coordinate with nearby parents to schedule carpools, playdates, and childcare. It helps parents organize the day's events and communicate with friends and caregivers.

KangaDo's two cofounders, Sara Schaer and Kaliyuga Sivakumar, are both former Snapfish.com employees and are currently participating in the 500 Startups Accelerator.

You can download the app for free in Apple's App Store and Google Play. [2] [3]

This is how KangaDo is going to make parents lives much easier:

You can search for nearby neighborhoods or schools to join.
