Cuddle is a companion app for the postpartum journey : built for the exhausting, tender, overwhelming, beautiful weeks and months after bringing your baby home. You're not meant to do this alone, and Cuddle is built around that idea. TAG TEAM Hand off caregiving duty with your partner or a caregiver with a tap. Cuddle tracks hours on duty, interruptions, and fatigue , so it's easier to see when someone needs a break, and easier to actually ask for one. TRACK Log feeds, diapers, and sleep in seconds. Cuddle learns your baby's patterns over time and gives you a gentle heads-up before the next feed is likely due. TALK TO CUDDLE A warm, always-available companion for the 3am thoughts, the "is this normal?" questions, and everything in between. Cuddle listens, and can even log a feed or check your Tag Team status right from the conversation. NEARBY Let other moms know you're up too - with your location intentionally blurred for privacy, never exact. MEETUPS Find real local parks, trails, and hangout spots for a baby date, a mom date, or a walk with your stroller automatically matched to your actual neighborhood. CIRCLE A community feed to share, vent, or read what other moms are going through, including opt-in Cultural Circles to connect with moms who share your background. RECOVERY Gentle daily check-ins on your own healing, not just the baby's with clear guidance on when a symptom is worth calling your provider about. DINNER BELL Set up a meal train and share one simple link - no one needs the app to sign up and bring you dinner. MAMA'S CALENDAR Scan an invitation or appointment card and Cuddle pulls out the date, time, and location for you automatically. POSTPARTUM SUPPORT A real, verified directory of local lactation consultants, postpartum doulas, pelvic floor physical therapists, and postpartum mental health specialists - one tap to call or visit their site. NIGHT LIGHT & BREATHING A calm, quiet space for 2am, with guided breathing exercises when you need to reset. Cuddle never diagnoses or replaces your healthcare provider - it's here to support you between appointments, in the small moments, and on the hard nights. Your privacy matters. Location features are always optional and intentionally imprecise. You can delete all of your data at any time, right in the app.
