How It Started

It Started With Our Son

As new parents, my wife and I were filled with immense joy. We also faced challenges that we hadn't anticipated. Our son struggled with feeding and sleeping, and his growth seemed slower than expected. We felt helpless and desperate, searching for solutions that could ease our worries and ensure our son's well-being. Despite the vast array of baby products available, we couldn't find a clear solution to our problems.

The Challenges

We Realized We Weren't Alone

I decided to take action. I interviewed over a hundred new parents. Their responses confirmed my hypothesis. Parents were naturally excited about their new babies, but they were also concerned about their safety and growth. They wanted to track their baby's vitals and development, but were overwhelmed number of different baby products in their homes.

Woddle

So We Built Woddle

This insight sparked an idea: what if we could create a product that combined all these features into one? A product that was safe, easy to use, and could track a baby's vitals and growth. 

With this vision in mind, I began to design what would become Woddle. I taught myself UI design, built a basic app mockup, and even bought a 3D printer to create a prototype. After many trials and errors, I was able to create a Smart Changing Pad that could track a baby's vitals, growth, and more.
