Eunice envisioned GoBuddies when her daughter was five years old.
Eunice found it difficult to set up playdates for her daughter when they lived in San Francisco Bay Area due to the busy life of other parents.
Her daughter was a social butterfly, and all she wanted was to go on Playdates. She even refused to go in restaurants that did not have any children. She was the biggest inspiration of the project and in addition to inspiration, she contributed creatively with the writing content and drawings.
Adding the socialization difficulty to the excess of electronics her daughter was exposed to, Eunice found the need to go on a mission to create a tool to facilitate parents and caregivers to organize Playdates and get the kids to play and interact more with each other.
