The Story Behind Our Kids Online
Founded in 2018 by Rob and Zareen, Our Kids Online began as a response to a pivotal moment: all four children in their blended family started asking for handheld devices. With both Rob and Zareen having authored books in the mental health space, they were deeply concerned by the rising rates of anxiety and depression among tweens and teens. This sparked an intense journey of research and discovery.
​
What they uncovered was alarming—a global epidemic of online harms affecting children of all ages. Determined to make a difference, they committed themselves to helping parents and caregivers understand these risks, offering practical safety solutions and guidance on building emotional resilience in kids through their Cyber Safety Presentations.
​
Key Milestones
-
2020: Released their powerful documentary, Our Kids Online: Porn, Predators & How to Keep Them Safe.
-
2021: Expanded their impact by creating engaging presentations for students and launching online courses to reach even more families.
In 2021, they were thrilled to welcome Emma to the team as their Executive Assistant, whose exceptional administrative support helps bring their mission to life.
