This is the whole app on one screen: how she slept, how she fed, and when she'll probably go down tonight.Example data shown.
What you get
The full tier, not a stripped-back free one.
Understand — normally £19.99 a month — unlimited, and yours for life.
- Everything unlocked: unlimited logging, the Why, correlations over time, weekly summaries and reports.
- Both parents, and any caregiver you invite, on the same baby.
- No card at sign-up, no trial clock, no upgrade prompt waiting for you in six weeks.
Nothing gets taken away later. Your access doesn't expire, your logging stays unlimited, and everything you record stays yours to export or delete whenever you like.
One night, laid out
The part you can't hold in your head at 3am.
You already know last night was hard. What you can't do, on four hours' sleep, is remember what came before it. meliy keeps the record so you don't have to.

Get ready for bed around 7:42pm. Drawn from the pattern in your own logs — and every observation links back to the entries it came from, so you can check the working.

How it works
Three taps tonight. A pattern by next week.
01
Log it while it's happening
Feeds, sleep, nappies and how a moment went. Built for one hand, in the dark, with a baby on you.
02
meliy looks across the days
Not one bad night in isolation — what has actually been repeating across the week, in feeds, sleep and routine.
03
Ask it in plain words
"Has she been feeding more this week?" You get an answer built from your own logs, with the entries it used.
Where this comes from
Grounded, and honest about its limits.
Built with a Board Certified Behaviour Analyst
Dr Nadine Hempkin is a Behavioural Psychologist and BCBA, and meliy's co-founder. The way meliy reads a day comes from established behaviour analysis, not from guesswork.
It is not a medical or diagnostic tool
meliy doesn't screen for anything, doesn't score your baby, and never tells you what they're feeling. It shows you what you logged and what has been repeating. Anything that worries you belongs with your GP or health visitor, and we'll say so.
Your data stays in the UK
Stored in the UK, built to UK GDPR and the ICO Age Appropriate Design Code. We don't sell your family's data. You can export it or delete the lot whenever you like.
Suggestions are experiments, not instructions
You know your baby. meliy offers things other families have tried and shows you what happened when you tried them. It never hands down a verdict.
Since we started using meliy, our son's routine has become so much easier to predict. I especially like the Ask meliy chat — you can ask anything about his day or week, like why he hasn't been sleeping well, and it brings up all the links to what changed.
Before you hand over an email
The questions everyone asks.
Yes. You get unlimited access to Understand — meliy's full tier, normally £19.99 a month — free, permanently, for as long as your account exists. There's no card at sign-up, no trial clock, and no point later where the features you've been using disappear behind a paywall.
A feed is two taps. Sleep is a timer you start and stop. It's designed for one hand at 3am, and you can log after the fact if you were too shattered at the time. Nothing breaks if you miss a day — patterns build from what's there.
The daily view is useful from the first night — it's a record you didn't have to keep in your head. Patterns need a bit more: roughly a week of logging before meliy has enough to show what's repeating rather than what happened once.
No. It shows you what you logged, what has been repeating, and things other families have tried. You decide what to try, and meliy shows you what happened afterwards. You're the expert on your baby — we just keep the notes.
Yes, and it's included. Both parents work from the same baby, so the 4am feed one of you did is there when the other wakes up. You can invite a grandparent, childminder or nursery the same way.
You go straight into meliy. Sign in with Google, add your baby, and you can log your first feed inside a couple of minutes — there's nothing to wait for in your inbox. We'll email now and then to ask how you're getting on, and you can stop those from any message.
Your baby's day already has a pattern.
meliy just helps you see it.
