## About Recess

Recess is a kids’ activities marketplace founded by moms Amy Kiska and Molly Morse.

The platform connects parents with high-quality enrichment classes, after-school care, and camps for their children. Launched in 2024, Recess aims to simplify the lives of parents while enriching children's experiences by easing the coordination of schedules outside of school. Recess operates through a web and mobile app, allowing caregivers to discover and book trusted kids’ activities quickly. The platform provides real-time availability and human support via live chat, email, or phone for every booking. It is free for schools to join, with no setup fees or monthly costs, and every booking financially supports participating schools.
