What is BabyWatch?

BabyWatch’s patent-pending technology was developed to alleviate some of the demands of caring for a baby. Between the pediatrician’s questions and the caregivers’ daily tasks, it can be overwhelming to keep up. Especially while coping with the fluctuating hormones, lack of sleep, and other stressors in the mix, it becomes nearly impossible to remember or track activities. There are a variety of products available on the market that can monitor and track, however limitations exist. For example, it's difficult to physically handle a device while holding a baby and manually interpret data. That can become time-consuming and arduous. Also, it is useful to know how the baby's and caregiver’s behavior influences each other, and to be prompted to make adjustments. BabyWatch not only identifies a problem, but it offers a solution.

Who is the Founder?

BabyWatch was created by me, Dr. Sheena Young, a full-time working mom. I’m a scientist and engineer working as a program manager, and recently gained the proud title of Mommy. Combining my understanding of the challenges that we face as parents and caregivers, with my professional experience solving technical problems, and access to resources in device development, I was able to develop a solution that isn’t addressed by existing products.  My hope is to make caring for a child a little simpler.
