Every company that has changed the world started with an impossible idea. No one thought that we’d be able to put a computer in everyone’s home, or connect within seconds to someone on the other side of the world. It was unfathomable that you’d be able to call a car to pick you up with the press of a button, put all the world’s music in your pocket, and my personal favorite, start a business in 5 minutes.
However, over time, we see these once deemed impossible things start to become a reality. The crazy ideas of “yesterday” become the way we all live “tomorrow.”
Today, Maple is taking the first meaningful step forward to unlock another impossible idea: make parenting, our most important and most difficult job, easier. And we aren’t looking back.
As a result of our work, we hope that parents find greater balance when completing their daily responsibilities, feel more appreciated for their day-to-day efforts, and most importantly, unlock the possibility of spending more quality time with their children and families.
Like all other “crazy” ideas, this too will take time. It is a process, and we understand that it takes more than just a good product launch to make real impact. Our vision of creating a better tomorrow for parents and our continued investment in unlocking possibility requires a collective movement. Here is how you can join us to make parenting easier:
Give Us All The Feedback: We are listening to every word. Tell us what you think about Maple, or the ways that we can make your life as a parent easier. We view feedback as a gift, so please email us anytime at feedback@growmaple.com. I will also be hosting Parent Town Halls on Maple’s Instagram account (@growmaple) every Friday from 12:30–1:00pm PST, and want to hear how I can make Maple better for you.
Partner With Us: We are looking for the best technologists, direct-to-consumer brands, services, and creatives that want to help make parents’ lives easier. If that’s you, email me directly at mp@growmaple.com. Some of our great partners already include Yumi, Haus, and Lalo.
Share Maple: Maple is rooted in making it easier to give and receive help. Tell a fellow parent about Maple and give them the help they need.
I believe deeply that Maple, in many ways, represents what all parents want for their children — the chance for a better life. Together, we will unlock this possibility.
Founder and Father,
