Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Grove — Australia’s parenting community app.

Grove is available Australia-wide, although we are focusing growth in Sydney, NSW with this initial launch. We will soon be expanding venues, places, and activities across Victoria and Queensland too. Wherever you are in Australia, you can already browse and add content — and our community is growing every day!

Absolutely! Grove is not just an app — it’s a community. You can easily add venues and events yourself — simply press the ‘Create’ button at the bottom of your app screen. Every addition helps other parents in your area discover amazing family-friendly spots. The more parents who contribute, the richer the community becomes.

Grove lets you filter by a wide range of accessibility features and amenities, including:

  • ✓ Cafes nearby
  • ✓ Parent room available
  • ✓ Baby changing station
  • ✓ Fully or partly fenced
  • ✓ Toilets available
  • ✓ Parent parking
  • ✓ Age-specific play equipment
  • ✓ Wheelchair accessible
  • ✓ Shade & covered areas
  • ✓ Water play areas
  • ✓ Pram accessible
  • ✓ Dog-friendly

…and many more! You can combine multiple filters so every outing is perfectly suited to your child’s age and your family’s needs.

Yes — Grove is completely free to download on both iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). Parents can browse venues, discover events, and join the community at no cost. We also offer Grove-exclusive deals and discounts from local family businesses, so you can actually save money while using the app.

Grove lists a huge range of family-friendly events near you, including playgroups, mums & bubs yoga, toddler music classes, school holiday activities, kids’ markets, pop-up play centres, storytime sessions, sensory play events, outdoor festivals, sports classes, and community meetups. Events are added by both businesses and parents in the community, so there’s always something new to discover.

Yes! If you run a family-friendly business — a play centre, café, childcare service, activity provider, or anything in between — you can list your venue on Grove and reach thousands of local parents. You can also post events, share exclusive deals, and grow your community presence. Visit our For Businesses page to learn more.

Grove is purpose-built for parents. Unlike Facebook groups where information gets buried, or Google Maps which has no family-specific filters, Grove combines venue discovery, event listings, exclusive deals, and parenting community features all in one place. Everything is filtered for family needs — age ranges, accessibility, amenities — so you spend less time searching and more time enjoying outings with your children.

Yes. Your privacy matters to us. Grove collects only the information needed to provide you with a great experience, and we never sell your personal data to third parties. You can review our full Privacy Policy for complete details on how your data is handled.
