PressClub with Josh Constine

The disintegration of tribal and generational living plus the high price of child care are necessitating new technologies to help parents. Meet the biggest startups making the best gadgets for babies: Snoo's robo-bassinet that detects cries and rocks kids back to sleep, Nanit's night-vision baby monitor that sends you push notifications, and Yumi's organic baby food delivery that now feeds 3% of children. We ask their CEOs and founders which devices and services parents need to buy and which they don't, which child-raising myths need busting, what they think about screentime for children, how to let go of parenting guilt, and why modern families deserve tech's help.
