Parenting is a journey full of learning, growing, and, yes—lots of sleepless nights. But as part of the Cradlewise family, you’ve got the best partner in the game to help make things a little smoother.

In 2024, we’ve been hard at work making powerful upgrades to our smart crib, all with one goal: to make your life easier and your baby’s sleep even sweeter.

We’re talking smarter features, intuitive design changes, and a whole lot of data-backed improvements to ensure both you and your little one can rest easy.

Let’s dive into the top 10 game-changing improvements that we made to your Cradlewise experience in 2024.

1. Total sleep hours: 20.4 million and counting

Our mission to give babies better sleep is growing fast! We’ve already clocked in 20.4 million total sleep hours for babies using Cradlewise. And the numbers keep growing rapidly, which means more restful nights for families everywhere.

2. Explore tab: Your sleep planning companion

In 2024, we launched the Explore Tab—a feature designed to help parents plan and optimize their baby’s sleep. This handy tool offers helpful articles, and insights for managing your baby’s rest based on their age. 3,100 parents visit this tab twice a week, gaining crucial information to improve their baby’s sleep schedule and routines.

3. Multiples support: Managing sleep for twins and beyond

For families with more than one little one, we’ve made managing sleep a breeze. With our new Twins/Multiples Support, parents can add and easily switch between multiple baby profiles. On average, parents with more than one baby use this feature 6.8 times a day, streamlining their sleep management and keeping everything organized.

4. Caregiver functionality: More control, more flexibility

We’ve improved the Caregiver Feature, allowing parents to define specific access times for caregivers. Now, you can set schedules to restrict access based on times and days of the week that suit your needs. This means more control over your baby’s care, while ensuring peace of mind when someone else is looking after your little one.

5. Status message improvements: Quick and easy sleep updates

We’ve made it even easier to check on your baby’s sleep status with our new status message improvement. The update splits your baby’s sleep status into an easier-to-read format and adds a timer pill that shows you how long your baby has been “sleeping since.” This has been so popular that there are 2,600 taps every week on the status pill, ensuring parents are always in the know.

6. Quick tips: In-app library for new parents

For those new to using Cradlewise, we’ve added an in-app library with video guides on key crib controls and tips for using the crib to support your baby’s sleep. It’s the perfect way to learn everything you need to get the most out of your Cradlewise crib, right at your fingertips.

7. Intelligent obstruction detection: Sleep without the surprises

Our intelligent obstruction detection feature makes sure that nothing interferes with your baby’s sleep. If an object is placed in front of the crib camera (like a blanket or a toy), the crib will alert you to prevent any potential sleep detection issues. It’s just one more way Cradlewise helps keep things running smoothly.

8. Sleep recipes: Tailored sleep for every baby

With over 7,200 sleep recipes created in 2024, this feature continues to be a fan favorite. Parents can customize their crib’s bounce and sound settings, creating the perfect sleep environment for their baby. 

9. Extra sleep for parents: 2 more hours per night

Did you know Cradlewise is helping parents get an average of 2 extra hours of sleep each night? With features like Smart Mode, sleep insights, and our calming bounce and sound settings, we’re giving parents the much-needed rest they deserve.

10. Snapshots and sharing: Cherish every moment

Cradlewise helps you capture your baby’s sweetest moments too! Parents take an average of 1.8 snapshots per week and share 21,000 baby snapshots each year. With 1.56 million taps on the Monitor Audio feature, parents are staying connected to their babies, hearing every little sound, and sharing those precious moments.

Conclusion

These improvements are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to enhancing your Cradlewise experience. Our team is dedicated to continually innovating and making your life as a parent that much easier. We can’t wait to see how these features help you and your baby rest, grow, and thrive!
