Find a parent on your exact route

School Run matches you with families at your child's school who travel the same way at the same times. No group chats, no spreadsheets, just the parents who are actually near you.

  • ✓ Same school, same direction, overlapping times
  • ✓ Sorted by how close they are to your route
  • ✓ New matches show up as more parents join

Private until you both say yes

Before you connect, other parents only see your first name, last initial and a rough area like "Dublin 6". Your address and phone number stay hidden.

  • ✓ Approximate area only, never your address
  • ✓ Your phone is shared after you both accept
  • ✓ Your full name and email are always your choice

Could you take Mondays and Wednesdays?
Perfect. I'll cover Thursdays and Fridays.
Deal. See you at the gate at 8.

Agree the run in a private chat

Found someone who fits? Send a request. Once you both accept you can message, swap details and decide who drives which day. Mark a run as sorted and it drops out of everyone's matches.

  • ✓ One-to-one chat, no public posts
  • ✓ Split the mornings, the pick-ups, or both
  • ✓ Reopen a run any time if plans change

Free, no ads, and safety-first

School Run is free for every parent, with no ads and nothing to sell. Every account verifies a phone number, and we always ask parents to meet at the gate first, because we can't verify identities for you.

  • ✓ Free forever, no ads
  • ✓ Every parent verifies a phone number
  • ✓ Report or block anyone, any time
