Even if you have a supportive partner by your side, being a new mom can be scary and isolating—but this is where the Smile Mom app comes in handy. The app is set up as a community where mothers can connect wither other moms nearby, so that they can share wisdom, schedule play dates as well as buy and sell baby clothes.
Within the app, it's possible to create private groups, so that it's easy to keep track of other users who parent kids at the same preschool, or activity classes as your child. The app features a news feed so that you can keep up to date on updates from other local moms, which would be useful for getting head's up if a flu or cold is going around at school.
