Built a small Mother’s Day project for my partner using Lovable as part of the Lovable x Wispr Flow challenge: “MumOS”

My partner Karolina manages an enormous amount of invisible family logistics every day — meals, appointments, reminders, schedules, shopping lists, remembering everything for everyone, etc. I wanted to build something specifically for her that felt supportive rather than just “another productivity app”.

So I built MumOS — a calm family dashboard with:

recipe storage + meal ideas
family calendar
reminders / mental load management
family memories
supportive daily affirmations
lightweight family organisation tools

The goal was less “task management SaaS” and more:

Lovable made it surprisingly fast to get from idea → polished MVP, and Wispr Flow helped enormously with rapid building and iteration through speech-to-text.

If anyone is open to checking it out, here’s the demo/submission:

We’re currently living in Poland and trying to sense check where we should settle longer-term as a family.

Context:

Family with young kids (primary school age)
We’ll soon be without close family nearby, so the need to be close to any given area is no longer the case
Remote work, so not tied to a specific city
Priorities: good quality of life, safe environment, access to decent schools (ideally strong English), healthcare, and things to do for kids
Bonus points for: green space, clean air (as much as possible in PL), and a bit of community feel

We’re trying to balance:

Bigger cities (more opportunities, schools, infrastructure) vs
Smaller cities/towns (cheaper, quieter, potentially better lifestyle)

Questions:

If you were in this situation, where would you choose and why?
Any underrated cities/regions that are great for families?
Anything you’d avoid (and why)?
How important is being near extended family vs choosing the “best” city?

Would appreciate honest takes, especially from people raising kids here.
