About Nurserly
Baby tracking made simple for real families
Why we named it Nurserly
"Nurserly" is our mashup of nurse, nursery, and nurture, with a little hint of "orderly," because let's be honest, baby life is adorable chaos.
We wanted a name that feels like a place you can step into when your brain is full:
- Did we do the bottle already?
- How long ago was that pump?
- Was that medicine at 7:00 or 9:00?
Nurserly is the calm, friendly corner where those answers live.
Who we are
We’re a couple raising four kids together in a beautifully mixed family, and we recently welcomed a new baby into the crew.
- Dad is a software developer (and the designated “I can automate this” person).
- Mom is an RN (and the designated “no, seriously, write that down” person).
We built Nurserly in the gaps between real life: feedings, laundry, work shifts, and the never-ending hunt for the missing pacifier.
Why we built it
We’re both working parents, and the hardest part wasn’t the love or the effort. It was the handoff.
When one parent is doing bedtime and the other is closing out work emails, you don’t want to play detective later. You want a quick, accurate answer to:
- What did the baby eat?
- When?
- How much?
- Any meds?
- Any notes that matter?
Nurserly helped us be more collaborative and cut down on the “wait, did you…?” messages. Once we realized how much it helped our home, we decided to make it available to other families too.
Privacy is not optional here
We come from healthcare-minded backgrounds, so we designed Nurserly with health data in mind from day one.
We’re not a HIPAA “covered entity” (we aren’t billing insurance, and we’re not required to be HIPAA compliant), but we chose to build Nurserly to meet or exceed HIPAA and HITECH expectations for protecting health information anyway, because that’s the bar that makes sense to us.
In plain English:
- Your data is yours.
- Privacy isn’t a feature checkbox. It’s a baseline.
- Flexibility matters, because every baby and every family is different.
What Nurserly is (and isn't)
Nurserly is a baby-care tracking tool that helps you stay in sync with feeds, bottles, pumping, diapers, growth, meds, and health notes.
It isn’t here to judge you, overwhelm you, or turn parenting into a performance review. It’s here to make the day-to-day easier.
Our promise
We’ll keep Nurserly:
- Simple when you’re tired
- Fast when you’re busy
- Flexible when life changes
- Private because it should be
If you’re using Nurserly, we’re rooting for you quietly from the background, like a helpful little gremlin who writes things down so you don't have to.
