Messages for your children, from the whole family
TrueKin is a private place for parents of young children to keep voice notes, photos and letters for each child, and choose when each one arrives. A weekly question makes it easy, milestones fill in on their own, and your partner and the grandparents can write too.
One question a week, matched to their age
Each week we ask one question about your child, written for their age. Answer with a voice note, a photo or a few lines. Ten seconds is enough.
Reply straight from your inbox and it goes into their story.
All the ways to keep →What made them laugh this week?
A small question for a moment worth keeping.
Answer on TrueKinMilestones that fill in on their own
Add a birthday, then add the milestones your family wants to remember. You can move or hide them later.
Each mark shows what is already waiting for it, so you can see where to leave something next.
Write together
Family lets you invite grandparents, aunts and godparents to write alongside you.
Everyone’s memories sit in the same story, marked with who kept them.

A story for each child
Lily and Noah each get their own story and horizon. Switch between them, or see everything at once.
A book of their year
Each January, every moment you kept that year becomes a book you can download. Printed copies are coming later.
