What is Co-Parenting?
If you are here you may well already know about it, but in case - co-parenting, (also called "platonic parenting") is typically where two single people agree to have a child and parent together. However, it can also be two couples who agree to do the same, or even a couple and a single person.


Single People Co-Parenting
If you are single man or woman (regardless of your own sexual orientation) and you want to have a child and share parenting duties co-parenting could well be for you. People frequently fail to find the perfect partner with whom to have a child, but the need to have a child remains strong.


Lesbian or Gay Couples Co-Parenting
Lesbian or gay couples can also agree to be co-parents sharing parental duties between both couples.

Finding a co-parent on PollenTree is easier - when you complete your PollenTree profile suitable co-parents are automatically suggested to you on your profile page.

Why Co-Parent?
Some people have life circumstances that make finding a partner more difficult, for example, busy careers or working anti-social hours. Like many people, they have not found the right person or been with someone they thought wanted children but have now decided they don't. Life is not always straightforward. Co-Parenting allows you to overcome these challenges and look forward to the challenges of parenting with someone else who wants children.



Finding the Right Co-Parent

From experience, we have found the most successful co-parents are those who take their time to find the right match. The beauty of co-parenting is that both parties have the same end goal and that this is clear from the beginning. We encourage prospective co-parents to discuss everything. No amount of planning is too much. A key part is parenting styles and what you want for your child or children. Discussing this from the outset always has a positive impact. So take your time and talk about everything you want for your children.
