Frequently asked questions
What is Poppins?
Poppins is a comprehensive service designed to reduce household stress for parents. We provide personalized parent coaching from the toddler years through the teen years, helping with challenges like tantrums, bedtime routines, social development, school situations, co-parenting coordination, and fostering independence. We also offer 24/7 medical support for times when the pediatrician's office is too far, too busy, or closed. Our medical team can provide guidance for over-the-counter solutions and prescribe medication when medically appropriate.
Where is Poppins available?
Poppins provides virtual services for Pennsylvania families. While we don't have a physical office, our platform connects you with dedicated parent coaches and PA-licensed healthcare providers, including Pediatric Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants authorized to practice in the state. We serve families across all of Pennsylvania, from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, Harrisburg to Scranton, and everywhere in between. Our virtual platform makes expert parenting support and pediatric care accessible to all residents statewide. Please join our waitlist if you current reside in another state.
Why should I sign up for Poppins?
Parenting doesn't come with a manual, and every child is uniquely different – even siblings. Whether you're looking for reassurance, wanting to build confidence, or simply need a judgment-free expert to consult, Poppins is here for Pennsylvania families.
Our parent coaches support you with both immediate challenges and long-term goals across all age groups, including:
- Establishing peaceful bedtime routines that actually work
- Navigating tantrums and emotional outbursts
- Developing effective discipline strategies for teenagers
- Implementing positive reinforcement techniques that build strong relationships
- Creating alignment between co-parents to maintain consistency
Plus, our 24/7 pediatric medical care gives busy families peace of mind when:
- Your child gets sick outside of regular office hours and your only option is pediatric urgent care or the ER
- You need medical advice for an urgent or non-urgent question
- You're unsure if symptoms warrant an in-person visit
- You need a treatment plan, but don't have time for an in-person visit
- You have questions about common childhood illnesses, medications, or concerns
Think of us as your complete parenting allies – we're here to make your daily life easier and more enjoyable by providing expert guidance for both behavioral and medical needs exactly when you need it most.
How does Poppins work?
Getting started is simple. After completing our onboarding questionnaire and payment, you'll meet with your parent coach for a 45-minute session. They'll get to know your family, understand your unique challenges, and create a personalized action plan to help you overcome current parenting hurdles.
Your ongoing support includes:
- Regular check-ins and reminders to keep you on track
- Text access to your parent coach for questions, updates, or problem-solving
- 24/7 medical support with responses within 15 minutes, including the ability to share photos, videos, or audio (like recordings of a cough) for accurate diagnosis
We've designed the experience to be both comprehensive and convenient, ensuring you have expert support whenever you need it.
Who's on my care team?
Your care team includes a dedicated parent coach who helps address your immediate challenges while creating a roadmap for your parenting goals. You'll also have access to our 24/7 medical team of nurse practitioners, supervised by Dr. Mona Amin and Dr. Saira Tariq.
How quickly can I reach my care team?
Our medical team responds within 15 minutes via text message, 24/7. Your dedicated parent coach will reply during business hours on the same day, or by the next business day if you message after hours. We got you.
Do you partner with pediatrician offices?
Absolutely! Poppins works with pediatric practices to provide after-hours support for their families. This partnership delivers quality care when the office is closed while helping offices manage costs effectively.
If you are a parent, and want your pediatrician's office to partner with Poppins, please tell them about us! Referrals from parents are the most powerful way to build these partnerships. We're always excited to work alongside your trusted medical providers to create a seamless care experience for your family.
