Our mission is to empower parents to parent better, spend smarter, and live fuller.

We envision Parentsy as the go-to community for parents who seek support, guidance, and connection. Through simple, practical, everyday changes, we strive to help all families live fuller, happier lives on a budget!

Our Values

We embrace diversity and ensure that all parents feel welcome and represented. We cater to the diverse needs of all Australian families, no matter where they are on their parenting journey. 

We believe in fostering a community that understands the beauty and challenges of parenthood, where members can share experiences, stories and knowledge.

We strive to be at the forefront of positive change for families, continuously exploring new solutions and adapting to the evolving needs of families.

We respect the individual choices, beliefs, and parenting styles of all community members.

I’m Andrea

I'm Andrea, a proud working mama who founded the idea for Parentsy during my maternity leave. With over a decade of experience working as a sonographer and in healthcare management, I've always aimed to create a meaningful impact in the communities I serve.

Like many working mamas, my employer offered no paid maternity leave option. This meant raising a child, paying bills, keeping up with rising mortgage repayments and inflated grocery costs, all whilst having lost a big chunk of our household income. Money was on our mind A LOT. But during this time we learnt how to be frugal and make smart spending choices in order to make the most out of raising a family, all whilst on a tight budget.

Realising the need for a nurturing community providing practical everyday budget support to parents like me, I developed Parentsy.
