Parentune’s inception and vision is to be the must-have support for each parent. Parentune is a proparent community which, provides personalized and trusted advice to parents from like-minded Parents and Experts. One of the most awarded India-found startup, it is the only such community of verified parents globally. Parentune has an empanelled Experts panel and useful widgets to support each parent with timely and appropriate solutions. Parentune was founded in 2012 by Nitin Pandey. Parentune was founded on the backdrop of finding from an extensive research spread over 2000 parents across 4 cities in a span of 45 days.
Parentune's foundation lies in its belief that if a parent is supported by relevant and personalized support could achieve what is right for their child. We believe that a proparent community will empower a positive shift in the quality of child development.

Venugopal has worked in startups as a Cofounder for 12 years. Starting with his first venture when he was still on IIT KGP campus, till now he has never been extensively using his tech talent to build tech smart businesses.

Nitin Pandey, Co-founder & CEO
Nitin had a prior experience of 12 yrs in scaling up Consumer focused brands & businesses. He was rated an Outstanding Achiever by Apollo Tyres. Nitin & his team scaled an Early Childhood Development & Education Business to being the most recognized chain of economy preschools & empowered the firm’s journey to an IPO in 3 years. He learnt in his education stints about parents’s challenges. He understood that parents miss a real-time support that can help them raise their child. He realised that a parent’s role in a child’s development is perhaps as or more important than a preschool or school. This prompted him to do a research with more than 2000 parents & compelled him to start up parentune. Nitin was recognized as a Braveheart by BD, 40Under40 Leader by BusinessWorld in 2018 and as an Illustrious Entrepreneur Alumnus by IMI Delhi in 2019.
