"AT PARENTS INC. WE KNOW HOW MUCH BLOOD, SWEAT, TEARS AND TONS OF ENERGY GOES INTO CARING FOR A YOUNG FAMILY."
MAARTEN VAN DER LINDE, FOUNDER
THE ONLINE COURSE FOR YOUNG PARENTS!
We have therefore developed a tool with a modern 21st century approach, enabling young parents to build a good foundation together. Think for example of strengthening family happiness and promoting cooperation between parents. Because things are a little different with children. But you just have to know how!
PARENTS INC. HELPS YOU THROUGH THE TROPICAL YEARS.
We use modern scientifically proven benefits and insights and have translated them into a simple and easy-to-implement course for you. We give you practical tools and exercises with which you can get started. Because time is scarce in a young family and you are busy enough as it is, we make the course available online. So you can follow it from your couch at a time that suits you.

THE SUCCESS STORY OF PARENTS INC.
The idea for Parents Inc. (formerly Pinkcloud) originated at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in 2014. Psychologist and researcher Maarten van der Linde and Professor Dr. Heleen Riper talked about supporting families in the tropical years. Because you can talk about tropical years when you have young children.
SCIENCE & GAMIFICATION.
We started thinking about how we could bring together the science fields of eMental Health and Systems Theory to increase happiness in young families. The possibilities we saw were enormous. All we needed was a party that could help us use gamification to achieve behavior change in young parents. And then we got a call from Rene van der Eijk and Andries van Vugt of Organiq. That is an agency for gamifcation, e-learning and multimedia with expertise in the field of behavior change and education through gamified eLearning.
EVEN MORE EXPERTS, POLITICS, JGZ & MUNICIPALITIES.
Together with the Dutch Association of Relationship and Family Therapy, Stichting opvoeden.nl, the Family Factory, Positief Opvoeden, experts Susanne Donders and Gerda Brouwer of Baby Erbij by EFT, several political parties, the then Children's Ombudsman and many very knowledgeable professionals, we have in 5 years time developed an online course, tested and scientifically researched (with a Randomized Controlled Trial in Municipalities Utrecht and Zaanstad), woke up politicians and got the JGZ behind us with the aim of building the happiness of parents and the children of young families by using cutting-edge technology to optimize cooperation in parenting and care.
