The first words, the school years, the friendships, the teenage years. One private place for all of it, shared with the grandparents you choose, and handed to your child when they turn 18.
Invitation-only. Every family is checked by a person before it starts.
"Mumma, why is the moon following our car?"
Kabir, age 5. Kept by his mother on the drive home from Nani's.
QuoteAge 5Shared with Nani
Want to keep that one?
Girls and boys, from the first day of school to the first exams that count. One thread through every year.
Why now
Why today's parents need this.
Our parents kept our childhood in a steel almirah: a few albums, report cards, a letter or two. Today's childhoods are recorded more than ever, and kept worse than ever.
Both parents work
The best moments happen at 7 am or 9 pm, and are forgotten by Sunday.
Keep one in ten seconds, even offline.
Grandparents in another city
Nani sees the photos a week late, if someone forwards them.
Bring them in, child by child.
Ten thousand photos, no story
Childhood is scattered across phones and WhatsApp groups.
A page for every year, ready to print.
Their life is not content
Posting a child's life publicly leaves a trail they never chose.
No ads, no feed, nothing public, ever.
School and health everywhere
Report cards in one drawer, the doctor's notes in another.
Together, and never ranked.
Children grow up faster
A 5-year-old needs you to remember; a 13-year-old needs privacy.
Their own space at 8, privacy at 13.
Every age
What parents worry about, at 5, 10, 15 and 18.
Every age brings its own questions. Parivaar is there for each of them, with a short guide when it matters and a safety net all the way through.

Family Circle
Bring Nani, Dadu and the whole family in, on your terms.
Invite grandparents, uncles, aunts and teachers. You choose what each one sees, child by child.
They send blessings and storiesYou approve each one before it joins your child's story.
Nani in Lucknow, Dadu in PuneEveryone close, without forwarding a single photo.
"Just me" momentsSome things are only for you. Nobody else sees them, ever.
After divorce or separation
Divorced or separated? Your child still gets one childhood.
When parents split, a child's story splits too: photos on one phone, report cards in the other house, grandparents who only hear one side. Parivaar keeps one story for the child, while each parent keeps their own life.
Two homes, two spaces
Switch to two households: each parent keeps moments, notes and a circle of their own. Nothing crosses unless that parent shares it.
Both parents stay parents
Each signs in with their own account and sees the child's shared story. Neither can lock the other out.
Both sides of the family
Nani sees what Mumma shares; Dadi sees what Papa shares. Both families stay in the child's life.
Step-parents, carefully
A new partner can be invited to help, without signing for the child or seeing more than they should.
Court orders, enforced
If a court limits someone's access, Dua's team records it and the app enforces it, quietly and exactly.
No one erases the other
Erasing a child's story needs every parent to agree. A "Just me" note stays private to the parent who wrote it.
"Whatever happens between the grown-ups, my childhood stays in one piece."What every child of two homes deserves.
Their own space
As they grow, their space grows with them.
From 8, children sign in on their own phone or tablet with a one-time code from you, after reading in plain words what is kept and who sees it.
8 to 12
They write and add photos in their own words. You can read it, and they are told so.
13 to 17
What a teenager writes is private unless they share it. Before you share a moment about them, they are asked first.
Every age
A Help button on every screen: free helplines, and a trained person at Dua they can tell privately.
One trusted adult
They can choose one grown-up from the family circle to ask to call them.
Safe by design
Safe by design, not by promise.
Data stays in IndiaStored in Mumbai. Letters, portraits and private notes are encrypted.
A person checks every familyEvery parent's identity is verified, and parental consent is recorded, before a family begins.
Built for India's DPDP ActChildren's privacy decided in the design, not added later.
Download or erase, anytimeTake your whole story with you, or erase it.
A safety net that listens, in English, Hinglish and Hindi
If anything written in Parivaar suggests a child may be in danger, the writer sees free 24-hour helplines at once, even offline, and a trained person at Dua is told. A person decides every step.

At 18
At 18, the story becomes theirs.
On their 18th birthday your child gets their own account. Their sealed letters open, and yours too.
Before the birthday
You are reminded to finish and seal any last letter.
On the birthday
The story is kept safe and private while they decide.
Their choice
Keep it, share it with you, or erase it. A yearbook with a page for every year is ready to print.
Friendly helpers
Meet the helpers.
Two AI helpers are being prepared for parents. They never judge, compare or talk to your child, and switch on only after legal review, if your family chooses them.

ProfessionalsAfter review Invite your child's psychologist or paediatrician to see only what you choose.
You, and the other parent if you choose. Family Circle members see only what you share with them, child by child. Teenagers decide what of theirs you see. Dua's staff tools never show your family's moments.
We are divorced. Can we both use it?
Yes. Switch to two households and each parent has their own space and circle, while the child keeps one story. Court orders are recorded and enforced, and erasing the story needs every parent to agree.
What age is it for?
Children from 5 to 17. From 8 a child can have their own space; at 18 the story becomes theirs.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes, in your phone's browser on Android and iPhone, and you can add it to your home screen like an app. It keeps working without internet.
What happens if I stop using it?
You can download everything at any time. If you withdraw consent, your children's pages are hidden at once and erased after seven days, unless you change your mind.
Is it free? Is there a Hindi version?
Parivaar is invitation-only while we open carefully; we will tell every family about pricing before it ever applies. The app is in English today; the safety net already understands Hindi and Hinglish, and Hindi screens are planned.
Start your child's story today.
Request an invitation. A person at Dua will check your details and help you set up your family.
