At Recess, we're on a mission to simplify the lives of parents while enriching the experiences of children. We connect families with high-quality, safe after-school programs, classes, and camps, all in one convenient marketplace. By elevating local businesses and reducing the stress of parenting, we're creating a community where children thrive and parents find peace of mind.
Hello
We're Molly and Amy, two moms and the co-founders of Recess. We started Recess because we know firsthand how challenging it can be to find and book the right activities for your kids. We believe that discovery should be easy, registration should be seamless, and finding great programs should feel like a joy, not a job.
With Recess, we're building a better way to explore after school programs, classes, and camps, all in one place. Our goal is to make your life a little easier while helping you unlock incredible experiences for your kids.
We know the hard work never stops when it comes to creating something better for our kids. With years of experience in startups, we've tackled big problems with innovative solutions. When we saw how frustrating it was to juggle after-school schedules, we knew we had the tools to make it easier for families everywhere. So we built it.
