About
Us
Mommates is not a babysitting app. It’s a modern village — built on an ancient principle: bartering.

Mommates is a vetted childcare exchange where mothers trade time — hour for hour.
Mommates enables moms to barter availability for childcare, share homes as temporary roommates, access emergency resources, and build supportive networks.

How It
Works
The hour-for-hour structure keeps the system equitable. It removes the hesitation many mothers feel when asking for help — the fear of being a burden or taking more than they give. Here, support is built into the design. You contribute. You receive. The exchange stays balanced.
The platform includes thoughtful matching, scheduling tools, and built-in safety measures — including background checks — to make shared care reliable and secure.
Provide childcare to another family in the network.
Every hour you give is recorded in the app.
Use your hours when you need support — for work, rest, appointments, or personal time.

wHY WE BUILT MOMMATES
Product Name
1.
Long before childcare became something you booked through a marketplace, mothers relied on exchange. They traded time, shared responsibility, and built informal systems of support that made work and family life possible. Mommates brings that philosophy forward in a way that fits modern schedules and modern safety expectations.
Product Name
3.
This isn’t about better time management. It’s about infrastructure.
Product Name
2.
Today, childcare is expensive, inconsistent, and often unavailable when you need it most. Nearly one in three mothers report high levels of burnout, with single mothers experiencing even greater stress. Without reliable support, mothers miss professional opportunities, postpone rest, and absorb chronic strain that impacts both mental and physical health.
Product Name
4.
We believe childcare is essential infrastructure for working families, and that access to reliable support is directly tied to maternal wellness.
