Friends for Families – Your circle of friends just got bigger

Friends for Families.com what a great idea, was profiled at Techcrunch. The model is a matching service for families to meet other families. Fantastic if you have recently relocated, or maybe planning a long vacation to say Europe or coming out to Australia or just wanting to meet families in your area. You often lose touch with friends who don’t have kids, or want to expand this area of meeting more families due to the stage of life you are at. I never thought I would ever become converted and so into parenting given my background, but on becoming a parent (and those that said to me you will never understand until you become a parent, you guys were right) I see more purpose in myself within society and realized the true the spending power families have. In the throws of this, and as the family unit forms, you realise you need to share with other families with whom you genuinely get along with, as well as have some common values or interests together.

It will be interesting to see how it goes and what families our family gets matched with and the process of safety in being matched etc…

Stay tuned, I will update to see if we have found a match in our local area.
