Hi, my name is Theodore, and we are the creators of BabySoma — a mobile app built by young parents for young parents. If you are a parent, you know how overwhelming sleep deprivation can be. Long nights, constant rocking, a baby crying in your arms for 20, 30, sometimes even 60 minutes. You keep asking yourself: is my baby overtired, is it too early or too late to sleep, should I intervene or wait, am I doing something wrong? We lived through this ourselves, night after night, completely exhausted and unsure what to do. BabySoma was not created as a startup idea. It was born out of a real-life struggle with our own baby’s sleep. As new parents, we tried everything we could find online, switching between different advice, routines, and methods, without a clear system or confidence. So we decided to truly understand infant sleep. We studied wake windows, sleep pressure, common mistakes parents make without realizing it, and practical routines that actually work in real life. After months of learning, testing, and adjusting, things finally started to improve. That’s when we realized that parents shouldn’t have to figure all of this out alone. We turned our experience, research, and knowledge into BabySoma. Today, BabySoma is already available, and any parent or family can download the app and start using it right away. The app uses smart, data-driven algorithms to help parents understand exactly when their baby should sleep, when it’s time to wake up, and how to avoid overtiredness and unnecessary crying. BabySoma provides clear, personalized sleep guidance so parents don’t have to guess or constantly doubt themselves. It helps bring structure, calm, and confidence into one of the hardest parts of early parenthood. BabySoma was released recently, and over 1,000 families are already using the app. Parents tell us that they feel more confident, spend less time trying to put their baby to sleep, and finally get moments of real rest again. This isn’t magic — it’s the right information, timing, and structure delivered in a simple and supportive way. We are raising funds to scale BabySoma and reach more families who desperately need this kind of support. The funds raised will be used primarily for marketing and user acquisition, so more parents can discover BabySoma and benefit from it. Right now, many families who could be helped simply don’t know that this app exists. With your support, we can change that and make BabySoma accessible to more parents and young families. If you’ve ever walked around the house at night holding a crying baby, felt exhausted and unsure what to do, or searched for answers in the middle of the night, then you understand why BabySoma matters. By supporting this campaign, you are helping tired parents feel supported, informed, and less alone. Thank you for believing in better sleep, healthier parents, and calmer families. The BabySoma Team
