Someday you (and your kids!) will be so glad you started a Parentfile...
Being a parent is the busiest and most important job we’ll ever have. But with trying to balance everything in our lives, parents forget or lose 71% of the “treasures” from the childhood years. Parentfile makes it so much fun to save these and give them to your child someday in the future…you’ll look back someday and be so glad you did.
There are so many reasons starting a Parentfile is the most valuable thing you could ever do for your children and something they'll be forever grateful for someday...priceless.
Should you have a will? A trust? What about everything else that’s digital or meaningful?
That’s why we created Parentfile…to have one secure place to save everything meaningful for your children to have someday, regardless if you have a will or trust, because often times the most valuable things aren’t something you can put in a legal document.
You can give your children access to your Parentfile immediately, at a specific age, or even create “Milestone Surprises” to share parts at specific life stages (not when you die!). And wait until you see how sharing these things opens the lines of communication with fun new things to talk about as everyone gets older...
Start your Parentfile today, your children will thank you someday, and you’ll have so much fun saving things for them along the way.
