When you’re a mama to fur babies, it can be tricky when an actual baby comes into the mix. Pets are often highly intuitive and can experience everything from jealousy to depression when a strange new creature enters their home – especially when this creature is garnering so much of your time and attention. These...CONTINUE READING

Babies grow quickly. The first time they smile, the first time they roll over, their first word – all these milestones seem to whiz by in the blink of an eye (blinking: another milestone!).   Before you know it, your baby is crawling… and he’s crawling fast. The living room becomes his jungle gym, the...CONTINUE READING

Hopping on a plane, saying yes to a road trip, or setting off on a cruise with a baby in tow can cause even the calmest of parents to spin out.

Okay, okay, we know right now you’re probably thinking, “What in the world is a wall mount and why are these guys so excited about it?” Well, as you might know, one...CONTINUE READING

Nanit’s been called the Tesla of baby monitors. And for good reason. Its advanced machine learning and computer vision technology put it light-years ahead of any other baby monitor out there (for one thing, it actually understands sleep!).

Long before babies can talk, they have wants and needs and desires and things to communicate. And believe it or not, they are capable of effectively communicating — in ways other than crying, giggling and cooing — as early as eight months. How? Through baby sign language, a collection of signs far simpler than the...CONTINUE READING

Every morning while walking down the streets of New York City, I pass hundreds of people — young and old. No matter their age today, they were babies once. All of them. It’s tough to imagine now, but that’s where their journey started. And that’s where Nanit starts, too. Hundreds of thousands of babies are...CONTINUE READING

There are some New Year’s resolutions that are just begging to be broken. Like giving up chocolate. Or coffee. Or sweatpants on the weekends. Not only are they hard to keep, but they’re easy to talk yourself out of (who on earth wants to wear uncomfortable pants while they watch Netflix?!). Sleep, though, is a...CONTINUE READING
