Hello,
My name is Tyronica Gibson

My Story
I'm a mom, entrepreneur, and someone who truly believes that the best family memories happen when we step outside our comfort zones and explore together.
Like so many parents, I found myself constantly searching for fun, family-friendly activities that wouldn't break the bank or require hours of planning. You know the struggle – bouncing between the city website, Facebook events, Eventbrite, and countless other platforms, trying to piece together what was actually happening in our area. I'd spend hours scrolling through different sites, calling venues to check if they were truly kid-friendly, and wondering if other families would even be there. The whole process was absolutely exhausting and incredibly time-consuming! I thought, "There has to be a better way!"
That's how Parent Playground was born in 2020. What started as my personal frustration became my mission: to create a safe, inclusive space where parents can easily discover amazing local activities, connect with other families, and share those precious moments that make parenting so rewarding.
When I'm not working on Parent Playground, you'll find me spending quality time with my 11-year-old daughter, hitting the gym, traveling, or practicing meditation (because let's be real – we parents need all the zen we can get! 🧘♀️).
My vision is simple: Every parent should feel confident about planning family time, knowing they'll find activities their kids will love and maybe even make some parent friends along the way.
Parent Playground isn't just an app – it's a community built by a parent, for parents. Because when families thrive, communities thrive too. ✨
