We Help Working Parents Thrive
Tools for planning, organizing, and staying sane as a working parent
Take Control of Your Time Today
We're Jon and Jessica.
We know what it’s like to feel pulled in a million directions—trying to juggle work, family life, and a never-ending list of things to do. We've been through the chaos of diapers, deadlines, and dinner plans—and built systems that helped us stop spinning our wheels and start feeling more in control.
GenRef was born out of necessity. We needed simple, repeatable routines that actually worked for our real, busy life. Now we share those tools with other working parents—because thriving at home shouldn't feel impossible.
We help parents create time-saving systems, family routines, and home strategies that bring structure and calm into everyday life. Whether you're deep in the toddler years or navigating school schedules and work meetings, we'll help you build a rhythm that fits your season—and make space for the things that matter most.
