Our Story

Built by a dad who needed it to work

I'm a tech founder. I've shipped products to millions of users. But I couldn't get my son's nanny to enforce a simple rule: make your bed.

Co-parenting means you're not there for the morning routine. You're not there to check if the bed got made or if homework went into the bag. You rely on someone else to hold the line.

The nanny tried. She really did. But without a system, without something that made it clear what needed to happen, things slipped. A reminder here. A forgotten task there. No consistency.

I looked for an app. Something simple. Something the nanny could use without training. Something my son would actually want to use. I found productivity tools built for adults and baby apps that talked down to kids.

So I built Tija. Not as a business. As a tool I needed to exist. Tasks with icons a kid could understand. A coin sound when something got checked off. A wallet that showed progress toward something real.

It worked. The nanny had a system. My son had motivation. I had visibility. Other parents asked what changed. I shared it. They asked for more features. Here we are.

"Tija works because it had to. It was built to solve a real problem, not to be clever."

— Founder, Tija Kids

If you're co-parenting, if you work with a nanny, if you need a system that actually works when you're not in the room—this is for you.

The rewards system is genius. It's not just about screen time; we added custom rewards like 'Date with Dad' and they love it.
