Match with your co-parent
To use TalkingParents, you must match your account with your co-parent's account. We provide three easy options to choose from.
If you have a Match ID from your co-parent
If your co-parent has already signed up, they can send you a unique 6-character Match ID to match you to their account. Enter it when prompted.
If you have your co-parent's email address
If you know what email address your co-parent signed up with, enter it when prompted to match with their account.
If you do not have your co-parent's Match ID or email address
If you do not know your co-parent's Match ID or their account email address, you can simply enter your co-parent's first and last name, along with the first name and birthdate of your oldest child in common. It is important that you and your co-parent enter your child's information identically to ensure a proper match.
Still not matched? Send your co-parent an invitation
If you and your co-parent still haven't matched, you can send them an invitation through text, email, or a unique Match ID.
Send them a text
You can send an invitation to your co-parent's mobile phone number via text message. With this option, your co-parent will receive a link to create an account along with your unique 6-character Match ID.
Send them an email
You can send an invitation to your co-parent's email address. With this option, your co-parent will receive a link to create an account along with your unique 6-character Match ID.
No mobile phone number or email address?
Copy the Match ID and send it to your co-parent through another form of communication. This option can be used by co-parents who only communicate through a third-party.
