Common questions

How often would they talk to their match?

As often as your parent would like: some enjoy a weekly chat, others more regularly. It's flexible around their week.

Is this different from just calling them myself more often?

It's meant to complement your calls and visits, giving your parent an additional, regular source of great conversation.

Is everyone matched properly vetted?

Yes. Safety and trust matter to us as much as they do to you, so everyone is checked before being matched.

How do I know what kind of match would suit my parent?

Just tell The Natter Network about their interests and personality when you get in touch. We'll use that to find someone they're genuinely likely to enjoy talking to.

What if my parent is shy at first?

That's completely normal, especially with someone new. Matches are chosen to be easy to talk to, and there's no pressure to open up immediately.
