Every morning and evening, thousands of parents make the same journey — alone in their cars, with their children, heading to the same school. School carpooling between parents at the same school is an obvious solution. But organising it without the right tool is another story entirely.
The main obstacle isn't willingness — most parents would be happy to help each other out. It's coordination: who lives near whom? At what time? How do you let someone know about a last-minute cancellation? Without a dedicated tool, everything flows through overloaded WhatsApp groups, lost messages, and extra mental load.
There's also the question of trust: entrusting your children to another parent means knowing who they are within the school community. That's why school carpooling can't work like an open platform for strangers.
School carpooling between parents is not commercial carpooling. As long as no payment is involved and journeys take place within a private, community framework, it does not fall under professional transport regulations.
The key conditions: journeys are unpaid, limited to parents at the same school, and each driver acts personally and under their own responsibility. No connection with strangers, no commercial logic.
One parent handles the morning drop-off, another the afternoon pick-up. Everyone saves time each week.
Helping each other builds bonds within the school community. Parents get to know one another better.
Knowing another parent can cover you when something unexpected comes up — that's real peace of mind.
WIMIT is an app designed exclusively for parents at the same school. It creates a closed community per school: only verified parents can access it, via an invitation code.
Inside, parents can offer or request rides on an ad-hoc basis, with no commitment required. The help-point system ensures balance: giving a ride earns points, requesting one uses them. No one takes without giving back.
Location sharing is controlled (active only during the journey), all communication stays within the app, and every trip is tracked to keep children safe.
Join the community of parents who help each other every day. Free, secure, no third-party drivers.
