For the hard moments of motherhood

Motherhood, with Tara.

Evidence-based parenting support, built by a clinical psychologist. Personalized to you — for sleep struggles, toddler meltdowns, mom guilt, and the nights you're wondering, “Am I doing this right?”

Built by Dr. Katrina Roundfield, clinical psychologist and mom.

Tara helps you feel more calm and capable through the hard parts.

Make a plan

Hey Tara, my son is 17 months old now and he has a ton of energy, I'm trying really hard to be more patient with him

Help with hard feelings

Tara, I'm terrified to go back to work after mat leave. Can you check in with me on this as I get closer to returning to work.

Navigate relationships

My partner is frustrating me so much! Just venting.

Figure out what's real

I have this persistent feeling that the daycare I chose isn't right for my boys. I feel super guilty about it and don't know if I'm making this up or if it's real.

Stay ahead of milestones

Can you follow-up with me on what you've learned about me as a mom? I'd love to see what ways I could grow as a mom and how to be more prepared for my daughter's next milestones.

Bring Tara anything

Whatever motherhood throws at you, Tara helps you think it through.

Tell Tara what's happening, and she uses behavioral science to offer a few thoughtful paths forward, so you can choose what feels right for your family.

With Tara

Hundreds of moms are figuring it out with Tara.

I feel so much better asking these questions at 3am while rocking a baby to an app made for those exact scenarios compared to ChatGPT.

It's nice to be heard to traverse the intensity of parenting, especially when you're thick in the learning curve of new parenthood.

Tara member · New mom

Tara offers more than one option to a question and they are legitimately different so I get to look at things from a much more comprehensive perspective.

Tara member · Mom of 2

The paths Tara offers feel really personalized, warm, and not generic like other tools I've used.

Tara member · Mom of 1

Tara feels like a little zap of perspective in between a therapy session.

Why you can trust Tara

Serious expertise, in plain language.

Built by a psychologist

Dr. Katrina Roundfield, clinical psychologist and mom, designed how Tara thinks and responds.

Not therapy

Tara is parenting support, not treatment. Tara doesn't diagnose or treat.

Real help finding more

When you need more than Tara can give, Tara helps you find the right person — a pediatrician, a lactation consultant, a therapist, a mom group.

Who made Tara

Made by a psychologist who was up at 2 a.m. too.

Dr. Katrina Roundfield is a mom, a Yale-trained clinical psychologist, and a former UCSF professor. She spent her career studying why good parenting science almost never reaches the moms who need it. Tara is her answer — the support she couldn't find on her own hard nights.

Experts review Tara's guidance for safety and quality. Tara is not therapy and does not provide emergency care.
