The Whisc way
Whisc is your pocket assistant for school life. It brings the messages, dates, what to wear and pack, activities and class chats into one calm place. Phew.
The problem
As a parent you know the mental and physical load is real. You feel like you need a full-time assistant just to stay on top of messages, play dates, activities, birthday parties and everything in between. You do your best and still don’t feel like you’re doing a good job.
Never have the press been so united. One thing is certain: the struggle is real.
“I have 3 kids and I receive 20+ WhatsApp parents group messages a day on top of emails and other school communications. I cannot keep on top of everything and often miss important things!”Parent at Reddam House School
How Whisc helps
We’ve spoken to hundreds of parents about what makes school life hard. We can’t fix everything (although that would be nice), but we have tamed the mayhem of communication, planning and logistics, so you can focus on what matters: making memories, or getting more sleep.
Class Reps and schools post Shouts, and each one tells you exactly what to do: pay, vote, RSVP, help out, or simply note the date. It lands in your schedule, and you can find it again.
Pay, vote and RSVP in one tapNo more chasing the thread to find the link.
What to wear and packPE kit, World Book Day costumes and swimming bags, in your family calendar.
Never miss an eventReminders the evening before and on the morning.
One family scheduleShare it with your partner, nanny or grandparents, and add it to your phone’s calendar.
The local knowledge that used to be buried in group chats, in one place.
Activities and holiday campsSee which friends are going, and book with local providers.
MarketplaceUniform, books and kit passed on between school families.
Lost propertyFind that jumper with no name in it.
Lift shareShare the school run and the Saturday football drop-off.
Class and year-group chats that stay about school. Talk about a Shout or an activity right where it is, and keep parenting separate from everything else on your phone.
Whisc began with a simple idea
Whisc is built on the collective wisdom of parents, so parents, caregivers and families can connect and work together without the effort.
Deal with something once: get a message, then act on it, schedule it or hand it to your partner or nanny (our favourite feature).
We’re working with schools, PTAs and Class Reps now. Open Whisc, try the demo, or get in touch and we’ll help you set up your school.
