About us
The Amsterdam Parent Project (APP) is a nonprofit organization that provides peer and professional support to parents of young children in Amsterdam. We run a newsletter, events, and programs that connect local parents with the peer and expert support they need in early parenthood.
Our mission
Bring Amsterdam's families and experts together so that no parent has to power through postpartum alone.
Our approach
We believe parents need context and community to thrive. Our "sandwich" model of support combines peer-to-peer connection (bottom-up) with expert advice (top-down) to help new parents navigate life with a baby/toddler with confidence and joy.
