Getting kids ready for school is the worst part of the day.

Why do you feel like you've run a marathon by 9AM? Kids want to do the right thing (well, most of the time). But they forget easily and get distracted. So to push them out the door on time you have to nag, scold and argue. Until the whole morning is just a crazy-making mess.
School Morning Routine is an app that helps you get your kids ready without all the chaos. So you can enjoy your family mornings together again.

Our Story

My name is Chris Nielsen and I live in Perth Australia with my beautiful wife Meg and our three gorgeous kids.

I got the idea for the app one day after a particularly chaotic morning getting all three kids off to school. As I arrived at work and walked through the front door of my office I thought: I am so tired, I bet I would be less tired if I'd just run a marathon.

The more I thought about it, the more it didn’t seem right that mornings should be so hard. Kids want to do the right thing (well, most of the time). But the problem is that they forget easily and get distracted. So to push them out the door on time you have to nag, scold and argue.

I didn’t want to waste these golden days with our kids.

So Meg and I started trying different ways to help our kids get ready for school. We scoured the internet and parenting books for ideas and tried everything. Some things worked and some didn't. The more we learned, the more we realized that nothing existed that got it quite right. So we made this app.

Now our mornings are relaxed and peaceful. In a small, but very real way, this app has changed our lives. I hope it will help you and your family as well.

If you have any thoughts about the app or parenting in general, reach out and let us know. We'd love to hear from you.
