Previously considered a niche market, the babytech or ‘famtech’ industry is increasingly growing. With all the sleepless nights and stress that can accompany having a baby, babytech brands offer hi-tech, innovative solutions to help families navigate and overcome challenges in the early stages of parenthood.
For busy millennial families who are particularly data driven, baby tech products are becoming a fundamental ‘extra pair of hands’ to ensure their littles ones are kept healthy, happy and, most importantly, safe. For many new parents it can be a minefield out there – especially knowing which brands to invest in. Here we’ve included a roundup of some of our favourite brands’ and their pioneering products:
ROCKIT
The Rockit Rocker is a clever portable device that will keep rocking your baby, so you don’t have to – ideal for providing a helping hand, on the go or at home! The Rockit Rocker can be simply attached to any stroller, pram or cot to rock a baby, just like they would in their parent’s arms. With an adjustable speed setting, it is perfect for babies who are easily disturbed.
HAPPIEST BABY, SNOO
Happiest Baby offer a variety of impressive products, including their award-winning SNOO cot, hailed as the safest cot on the market. Backed by scientific research, the SNOO cot was designed by Dr. Harvey Karp (author of Happiest Baby on the Block) to keep parents’ minds at ease that their little one is sleepy safely throughout the night.
As well as being beautifully designed, the responsive SNOO cot aids a baby whilst it is sleeping to detect and respond to their needs whilst providing gentle rocking and calming white noise to mimic the soothing rhythm of the womb. What’s more, the SNOO sends direct sleep reports to a smart phone so parents can keep a tab of their baby’s sleep.
OWLET
Owlet’s mission is to empower parents with the right information at the right time. They offer particularly smart monitoring products which inform parents of their baby’s needs and wellness.
The Owlet Smart Sock cleverly tracks baby’s heart rate and oxygen levels and sends the data via wifi/Bluetooth to the Owlet app which provides live readings. They also offer a Cam which streams HD 1080p video with night vision and two-way audio to a smartphone over a secure, encrypted WiFi connection.
MY HUMMY
MyHummy (aka. the sleep saviour) offers a variety of adorable, unique soft toys that have been designed to help babies sleep. The award-winning teddies emit 5 types of white and pink noise, which has been shown to improve babies’ sleep patterns.
The MyHummy also includes a sensor designed to watch over the baby’s sleep and adjust the sound accordingly – it is the perfect bedtime companion for babies, providing warmth, comfort and security. The MyHummy app also allows parents to adjust the settings from their smartphone including the timing mode, sound, and volume.
