Nanit Care Logs - How to add feeds and changes to Activity

Meet Care Logs, a feature that streamlines parenting by providing a comprehensive solution for tracking your baby's activities. You can track diaper changes and feedings (nursing + bottle) right in the Nanit App–no need to navigate to another app or bother with a hand-written journal. 

Having your baby’s sleep and care data in one place can help you understand their patterns and wellness holistically and make informed decisions. Plus, other users on your parenting team will have access to add and view logs–making it easier to coordinate caretaking duties and reducing mental load for you. It can also be helpful to share your Nanit data with your care team (such as a paediatrician, lactation, or sleep consultant) so they can see the whole picture.
