Babyzone Takes Over Baby Buddy to Grow its Mission of Supporting Parents
Babyzone is thrilled to announce that we have officially taken on Baby Buddy – the innovative app that serves as a trusted companion for parents and caregivers by providing expert-led, evidence-based support throughout pregnancy and early childhood.
A New Chapter in Family Support
This acquisition marks an important milestone in our ongoing commitment to supporting families across the UK. Babyzone and Baby Buddy share a common mission: to empower parents with accessible, practical advice and support that covers every aspect of early childhood development – from physical and emotional growth to social milestones.
Bridging Online and Offline Support
Our vision is to create a truly comprehensive support system by integrating Baby Buddy’s digital platform with Babyzone’s community-driven approach. Parents will continue to enjoy Baby Buddy’s free, research-driven content and personalised digital guidance while also benefiting from the premium, evidence-informed classes and safe, welcoming spaces offered by Babyzone. This synergy ensures that families receive holistic support whether they’re seeking advice online or engaging in face-to-face sessions in their local communities.
Charles Mindenhall, Chair of Babyzone, shares his enthusiasm:
"We are absolutely delighted that Baby Buddy has a new home within Babyzone, where its vital mission of supporting parents and giving every child the best start in life will continue to grow and thrive. Baby Buddy is an invaluable resource for so many families, and thanks to the dedication and generosity of its supporters, funders, and partners, it has made a lasting impact on early childhood development across the UK.
At Babyzone, we are deeply committed to ensuring that Baby Buddy remains a trusted, evidence-based, and engaging platform for parents. This transition presents an exciting opportunity to integrate Baby Buddy’s pioneering digital support with Babyzone’s local, community-driven approach—creating a truly holistic support system for families nationwide.
We are grateful to everyone who has contributed to Baby Buddy’s journey so far. Your passion and commitment have been instrumental in shaping this platform into what it is today. As we move forward, we hope you will continue this journey with us—helping to expand Baby Buddy’s reach, enhance its impact, and bring even more innovation to how we support families in those critical early years.
With Babyzone as its new home, Baby Buddy’s future is full of possibility, and all of us at Babyzone are very excited for this next chapter."
Lorraine Barclay, Chair of Best Beginnings adds:
"We are truly delighted that Baby Buddy has joined the Babyzone family, providing parents, co-parents and caregivers a trusted, evidenced-based digital support to add to their ever-growing community offering.
This powerful combination will help to ensure every child has the best start in life."
Looking Ahead
As we look ahead to plan to integrate our services and expand the offering of Baby Buddy, our shared goal remains unchanged: to support families in every step of their parenting journey with comprehensive, compassionate, and practical guidance. We believe that this exciting new chapter will not only enrich the lives of parents but will also help shape a healthier, happier future for our children.
