One app. Every need. More connection. Less chaos.
Sentinel is a family network built for the part of parenting nobody prepares you for: finding the right providers, figuring out what your insurance actually covers, keeping appointments and health details straight, and finding things to do that genuinely fit your child. Ask one question and get real, matched answers — not a list of links.
If any of this sounds familiar
Sentinel exists to take that load off you and put it in one place.
What you get
Ask Sentinel
One place to ask anything about your family's care in plain language — "who does speech therapy for a 4-year-old near me and takes our plan?" You get a real answer built from verified places, programs and events, with actions you can take right away.

- Answers know which family member you're asking about
- Every answer offers next steps like Add to Planner or Get directions
Find Help
Search providers, therapies, services and programs, filtered by what actually matters: your insurance, distance, your child's age and availability.

- Every result explains why it matched your family

Insurance you can trust
Sentinel checks provider networks against your actual plan using payer-published data and federal Marketplace plan data — then tells you how confident that answer is.

Common questions
Does it cost anything?
No. Creating an account, adding your family, searching and saving are all free for families.
Do I have to share my insurance?
Only if you want insurance matching. You can browse and search without it — adding a plan just makes results far more accurate.
Is this only for children with disabilities or medical needs?
No. Sentinel started with families managing complex needs, so it handles hard cases well — but any family can use it for providers, appointments, events and local services.
Where does the information come from?
Verified organization profiles, payer-published insurance data, federal Marketplace plan data, local events and moderated parent recommendations. Sentinel labels the source of what it shows you.
Can other parents see my family's information?
No. Your family details, health information and planner are private to your account. Recommendations you choose to post are public and screened for personal information first.
