    Founder

    Hi, I'm Jacquelyn, the founder of monkeybars

    A mom on a mission to make being a parent easier

    My Story

    Like many parents, I was always trying to figure out what was happening for kids around town. Between scrolling social media and googling endless websites, keeping track of community events felt way harder than it should be. Then add finding—and remembering—registration dates for activities, PD days, and summer camps. And birthday party planning? That's a whole other level.

    I kept thinking: there has to be a better way.

    That's when monkeybars was born.

    What Drives Me

    Make it Simple

    Parenting is hard enough. I built monkeybars so parents can easily get they information they need.

    Support Local

    Our city is full of incredible people doing amazing things for families. The party planners, activity organizers and local service providers and vendors who pour their hearts into creating experiences for our children. I'm passionate about shining a light on them and helping families discover all the amazing things happening right here at home.

    Build Community

    Parenting can feel isolating, but it doesn't have to be. Through monkeybars, I hope to help families connect, discover new experiences and find community.

    Let's Connect

    Whether you're a parent looking for weekend plans, an event organizer hoping to reach more families, or a local business offering something special, I'd love for you to be part of the monkeybars community.
