First Software to Track Every Baby’s Schedule The Baby Nanny™ Helps Parents to Decipher Their Child’s Wants

The Baby Nanny™ is BC developed software that allows parents to establish a routine that fits their child’s natural schedule, resulting in happier babies and less overwhelmed parents.

Parents use The Baby Nanny™ software to track their newborn’s sleeping, eating and fussing to better understand and establish a customized routine unique to their infant’s personality, says The Baby Nanny™ owner and developer Kim Appelt.

“Having a baby is a life changing and often daunting experience. Babies have a natural rhythm and identifying this rhythm and creating a tailored schedule for your baby reduces stress on your baby and you, the parent,” says Appelt.

The Baby Nanny™ software tracks everything from the baby’s diaper changes and nap times to mealtimes and fussiness. It allows parents to know their baby faster and better, improve their baby’s sleep, assist mothers with breastfeeding challenges and helps parents with premature, colicky or twin newborns.

“What babies want most of all is structure,” says Appelt. “They want a predictable routine. When parents don’t know their baby’s routine, they don’t know what their baby wants and the baby cries.”

With more than 335,000 births in Canada a successfully established schedule in the early weeks helps to reduce the feelings associated with “baby blues” a mild form of depression experienced by between 50% and 80% of new mothers, and reduces the likelihood of the more debilitating postpartum depression, which affects 3% to 20% of mothers, says Appelt.

As a new mother with a premature baby and inspired by the growing worldwide parenting approach made popular by the international bestselling ‘Secrets of the Baby Whisperer: How to Calm, Connect and Communicate With Your Baby’ by Tracy Hogg, Appelt wanted a schedule that was best for her baby.

But she found keeping track of her newborn daughter’s feeding, sleeping and activity schedule on scraps of paper burdensome. So she created software that is perfect for a new generation of computer savvy parents.

The Baby Nanny™ was released worldwide in October 2005 after nearly a year of development and testing. The Baby Nanny™ is sold via the Internet as a download for an introductory price of just $19.95 US at www.thebabynanny.com.
