Remembers
Kit days, allergies, who picked up last time. The details you'd otherwise carry around all week.
Every working mother's own personal assistant, on WhatsApp.
Send Parent PA one voice note. It works out what's needed, researches the options, hands each task to the right person and tells you when it's done. We hold the admin, quietly, in the background.

Parent PA founder survey, n=50, 26 Sep to 3 Oct 2026.
Our story
Kate joined The Maine Group as a receptionist in 2011, fresh from an English Literature degree and a year travelling the world. Meeta soon made her PA. Alongside the business, Kate began to take on the family admin too: school forms, medical appointments, birthday parties, Christmas presents, and everything in between.
Meeta's children were six and four when Kate started. Kate saw them through the whole of it. Because modern parenting isn't just emotional, it's operational: vaccination dates, school applications, exam deadlines, sports days, birthday parties. Meeta knows the pressure of trying to be exceptional at work and fully present at home. Kate carried the half of it nobody sees.
Over 25 years of working with employers, Meeta watched talented people, especially women, worn down by the same invisible mental load. Not because they couldn't do the job, but because they were quietly doing a second one, and the system made being present at home feel almost impossible.
Kate worked through her pregnancy during Covid. When her son arrived early, her maternity leave started overnight: a newborn, a business, and a whole new world of parent admin. The person who had kept a family's life on track for years now needed someone to do it for her.
Meeta has seen the parenting journey through to the other side. Kate is at the very start of it. Between them, they've lived every stage Parent PA is built for. It's the tool Meeta wished she'd had: one that takes the admin off parents' shoulders, so they can be present for the moments that matter.
“Every working mother should have what Meeta has in Kate.”

Questions
No. Parent PA lives in WhatsApp, so you brief it with a voice note or a message, the same way you'd message a person. There's a companion app for seeing everything at a glance, but you never have to open it.
Not above your threshold. You set a spend limit, £50 by default, and anything over it waits for your yes. Helpers can have their own smaller limits, like £20 for kit and club costs.
You do. Everyone in your circle receives tasks by WhatsApp, but they never see your thresholds, spend history or medical notes unless you allow it. Every fact held about your family is listed under Privacy & data controls, where you can delete it.
They're transcribed, then discarded. Audio is deleted within 30 days, and only the facts you asked us to remember are kept.
