An Adaptable AI product
Night Nanny helps settle your baby when they wake and learns, night by night, what actually works for them. You always make the final call.
Augmented parenting, not automated parenting.
Night Nanny takes the first try at the repetitive wake-ups so you can save your energy for the moments that need you most… and get more sleep in the process.
A note to parents
Your baby needs you. They do not need you running on three hours of broken sleep. Night Nanny covers the small wake-ups, so you can be there for the moments that actually matter.

01 — How to use
From unboxing to the first night of monitoring, setup is quick and doesn't come with a twenty-page configuration guide.
Unbox Night Nanny, place it in the nursery, and record a short sample of your voice, plus a song or two if you like. From there, it keeps watch overnight and sends updates to your phone.
Behind the scenes
Night Nanny listens for the difference between fussing, crying, and a baby who is fully awake, and starts soothing only when it makes sense.
Night Nanny chooses from white noise, heartbeat sounds, lullabies, and songs sung in your own voice, then learns which ones work for your baby at each time of night.
02 — The system
We designed Night Nanny around what a good night doula does: it stays close through the hardest hours and handles what it can, but every real decision stays with you.
The metaphor
A doula is not the parent and does not pretend to be. A good one stays calm when everyone else is exhausted, takes on the repetitive parts of the night, and steps back whenever there is a real decision to make.
That is the role we built Night Nanny to play in your nursery.
How it learns
Averages are useful for designing products. They are less useful at 2:08 AM when your baby has their own patterns, preferences, and reasons for waking.
Night Nanny learns from what happens in your nursery: what settled your baby, what made no difference, and what worked at midnight but not at four. Over time, it gets better at knowing what to try first.
The principles
You decide when Night Nanny can step in, how long it keeps trying, and what should wake you right away. It works within those limits and never changes them on its own.
You should not have to wonder what an AI did while you were asleep. Each morning, Night Nanny gives you a plain-language recap of the night and a taste profile of what calms your baby.
Night Nanny is there for the routine wake-ups, never in place of you. The relationship between you and your child stays at the center.
03 — What it sees
With camera analysis on, Night Nanny looks at the whole crib and flags the visible things safe-sleep guidance warns about, like fabric near your baby’s face, a baby face-down before they can roll back, or loose items in the sleep space.
Camera analysis stays off until you turn it on, and the switch tells you exactly what it sends, where, and how often.
Night Nanny flags blankets, plush toys, or loose fabric in the sleep space, especially near your baby's face.
Safe-sleep guidance is simple: the crib should stay empty.
Night Nanny flags when a young baby who cannot yet roll back is lying face-down.
Back-sleeping is recommended until rolling both ways is independent.
Night Nanny flags when a baby is pressed against the side of the crib, up against the slats, or close to soft objects.
Safe-sleep guidance recommends keeping soft objects and bumpers out of the crib.
If the camera is blocked or your baby is out of view, Night Nanny says so instead of guessing.
A monitor should be clear about what it does not know.
Honest limits. Night Nanny is built to give parents more context, not to make medical decisions. It is not a medical device, does not diagnose any condition, and does not replace pediatric care, safe-sleep practices, or good judgment.
04 — What's next
Night Nanny is the first product from Adaptable AI, which builds screen-free AI that starts at the crib and stays with a child as they grow up. As your baby gets older, what Night Nanny has learned about them carries forward instead of starting over.
Now, next, and later
Each amber point is something Night Nanny does today or is working toward, starting in the nursery and reaching further into the house as your child grows.
Now · Soothing
It tries soothing interventions like white noise, lullabies, or a song in your own voice, and remembers what worked at each time of night.
The deeper bet: limiting screen time is good advice for now, but what matters more is what children’s technology trains them to expect. Most of it is built for engagement. Adaptable is designed around attention, reasoning, and a child’s growing model of the world, and Night Nanny is where that starts.
