FinBaby is the free baby tracker that keeps mom, dad and every caregiver on the same page, live. Feeds, sleep, diapers, growth and week-by-week guides, all in one cheerful place.
FinBaby is for every family. Feeding, sleep, diapers and growth tracking, shared live between everyone who helps look after your baby — with no paywall on the things you need at 3am.
We're in testing right now, getting FinBaby ready for the app stores. That means real feedback from real moms shapes what it becomes — tell us what's clunky, what's missing and what actually helped.
It's built by FinSmart Holdings, the team behind FinSmart and TaxFin, so it's made with the same care for South African families.
Every screen has its own colour and mood, big friendly buttons for tired thumbs, and a little celebration when you save something.
Tap Left or Right to start a live timer, and FinBaby flags the next side. Log bottles, breast milk or a combo feed (breast plus a formula top-up), see how many feeds baby has had today against what's typical for their age, and read while you feed.
Naps and night sleep, a live "awake for" meter, and the wake window that suits your baby's age — so you know when the next sleep is due.
Wet, dirty or both with a single tap and a running daily count — exactly what the clinic asks at every check-up.
Record weight, height and head size for any date, and watch clear charts build against a WHO reference line. Your check-up history, tidy and shareable.
Milestones, feeding, sleep and "try this" ideas matched to your baby's exact age — weekly for the first 12 weeks, then every two weeks and monthly.
Short, plain-language reads for feeding time: why you need a will, choosing a guardian, life cover, saving for baby's education, tax-free savings, parental leave and looking after yourself.
Optional notifications when someone starts a feed or sleep — tap to jump straight to the timer, and on Android pause or stop right from the notification.
Forgot to press start? Add or edit any feed, sleep, diaper or measurement with its real date and time, down to the decimal minute.
Everyone in your care circle sees the same live timeline, with names attached. Optional lock-screen notifications tell you when someone starts a feed or sleep — tap to jump straight to it. Twins? Switch between babies in a tap.
Life with a newborn isn't tidy, so FinBaby isn't strict. Log something that already happened, or edit an old entry whenever you need to.
FinBaby counts your baby's completed weeks from their date of birth, so a 12-week-old sees Week 12 — not Weeks 13–14. Sleep, wake windows, feeding and milestones are written by age and written from public paediatric guidance.
No "viewer" tier and no waiting. When one caregiver logs a feed, a nap or a diaper, it shows up for everyone — with their name on it.
No password to remember — we email you a one-time code.
Starting out? Add your baby. Already part of a family? Enter the invite code you were sent.
Feeding, sleep, diapers and growth stay in sync across every phone, with optional notifications.
FinBaby works right in your phone's browser, and installs like a real app — no download from a store needed while we're in testing. App Store and Google Play versions are on the way.
What you log in FinBaby is only visible to the caregivers in your family's care circle — the people who have your invite code. We never sell your family's data, never show it to advertisers and never share it outside your family. There are no ads and no third-party trackers.
Between sleepless nights and endless nappy changes, the money side of a growing family can slip down the list. Getting a few things right early gives you real peace of mind.
Your income now supports someone who depends on you — many families are under-insured when a baby arrives.
Does your will name a guardian for your child? Are your beneficiaries up to date?
The earlier a savings plan starts, the longer compounding has to work for your child.
RN Financial Planning helps growing families put the right cover, will and savings in place — so you can focus on the baby, not the "what ifs".
Book a consultation →Every feature, every caregiver and every baby, at no cost while FinBaby is in testing. No trial, no credit card.
Yes. Right now every feature, unlimited caregivers and unlimited babies are free. We're in testing ahead of the official app store launch. If we ever add optional paid extras, we'll tell you clearly before anything changes.
Only the caregivers in your family's care circle — the people who joined with your invite code. Nobody else: not other families, not advertisers, not the public.
Not right now. Open app.finbabyapp.com in your phone's browser and add it to your home screen — it then opens full-screen like any other app. Store versions are coming.
Yes. Add a past feed, sleep or diaper with the exact date and time, or edit any earlier entry. Growth measurements can be added for any past date too.
Sign in with your own email, choose "I'm already part of a family" and enter the invite code from their Family tab. You'll see everything they see straight away.
No. The guides and charts are general information to help you know what's typical. Every baby is different — always ask your clinic or doctor about your child's health.
FinBaby is a separate app from the same company, FinSmart Holdings. It shares no data with FinSmart or TaxFin.
Set up takes about a minute. Add your baby, invite your family and you're off.
