🚩 Problem We Addressed

New parents often juggle sleepless nights, emotional stress, and confusing information scattered across dozens of apps. The lack of a unified, intelligent system increases cognitive load and puts both parental mental health and infant care at risk—especially during the crucial first year where over 80% of brain development and long-term habits are formed.

🌟 Solution Overview

NeoNest bridges this gap with an all-in-one AI-powered babycare assistant. From feeding logs to vaccine reminders, milestone tracking, and an empathetic chatbot, it helps parents stay organized, supported, and informed—without feeling overwhelmed.
