The Covey App connects parents based on interests, location and kids’ ages. It’s a Free App created by a founding team of moms; run by a mom & ex-Google engineer. Parents can join Covey to connect with other parents for support & advice, within LA and outside. Looking for Playdates? Want recommendations on High Chairs & Strollers from other parents?
