Mommy Nearest combines a national and local mobile parenting magazine with proprietary geo-location technology to help parents find and rate kid-friendly places. The free iPhone and Android app offers geography-based recommendations and features more than 40,000 original reviews of over 70,000 places. The platform has a mobile community of 160,000 parents and launched in five markets in 2014 (New York, Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles and San Francisco). Led by CEO Josh Milstein, the company is rolling out Mommy Nearest for Business, a SaaS marketing platform that lets local businesses control pages and send opt-in push promotions.
