Built by parents, after 3am.
Pippy exists because the founders, two parents who built Pippy, were drowning in tracking apps at 3am. Most baby trackers are paywalled, clinical, or ask you to tap fourteen times to log a feed. Voice logging was missing. So we built it.
A small team and a loud parent community.
We are intentionally small so the app stays calm and opinionated. No committees. No dark patterns. Every screen is reviewed by someone who has used it at 3am on two hours of sleep.
The founders
Two parents who built Pippy because nothing on the market felt like it was made for them. Product and engineering, day to day.
Pippy Care Team
Our editorial group. They research, write, and review every blog post and tool for pediatric guidance and plain language.
Engineering
The team that ships the iOS app, the voice engine, and the free web tools. Privacy first, always.
Parent community
Hundreds of real parents who tell us what is broken and what is missing. They shape what goes in the roadmap.
How we research, write, and review.
Everything we publish about baby health, sleep, feeding, or development goes through the same process. No exceptions, no shortcuts.
- Every claim is sourced to a primary pediatric body. We rely on the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and HealthyChildren.org as our first line of references.
- Guidance is reviewed by the Pippy Care Team for accuracy before it ships. If something is age-specific (like wake windows or feeding amounts), we only publish ranges that match current pediatric consensus.
- We mark opinion as opinion. When we are sharing a parent tip that is not a medical claim, we say so plainly.
- We update content when guidance changes. Safe sleep recommendations, for example, have evolved. We keep our posts in sync with the most recent AAP statement.
- Nothing on this site replaces your pediatrician. We say this in bold in our medical posts and we mean it. If you are worried about your baby, call the doctor.
Primary sources we cite

- WHOWorld Health Organization. International growth standards and breastfeeding recommendations.
What Pippy refuses to do.
Most apps in this space do at least one of these. We do none of them. This is the part of the mission that is non-negotiable.
Not in the app, not on the blog, not hidden inside tools. A baby tracker should never sell your attention back to you.
Your baby's feeding and sleep patterns are not a product. We will never sell them, ever, to anyone.
Every App Store review comes from a real parent using the app. We do not incentivize or script them.
Feed, sleep, and diaper tracking are free forever. You should never have to pay to log that your baby ate.
Your data stays with you.
The free tools on this site (feeding tracker, diaper tracker, wake window calculator, pumping log, tummy time timer) run entirely in your browser. Entries are stored in your device's local storage. They never touch our servers. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is shared.
In the Pippy app, cloud sync is end-to-end encrypted and tied only to your account. You can export your full history or delete everything from inside the app, no emails required. That is a promise, not a setting to dig for.
Questions, feedback, press, or partnerships?
We read every message. If you are a parent with a suggestion, a pediatric professional with a correction, or a journalist working on a story, we want to hear from you.
