It Starts Here
Welcome to Dandyplans!
Missed camp registration deadlines?
Frantic late-night searches for camps your big and little kids can attend?
Double-booked camp weeks and carpool chaos?
We’ve been there. That’s exactly why we created Dandyplans, an all-in-one platform to help you organize camp schedules, coordinate carpools and registrations with friends, and finally feel on top of summer (and school-year!) planning.
We’re Molly and Meg—cousins, friends, and now business partners. Between us, we’re moms to six kids under ten, and we know firsthand the mental load of camp and activity planning. We’re here to change the way parents plan camps so we can all get some time back. We believe in the power of community and want to build Dandyplans together. Happy planning starts here!

Step 3
