BabySafe Health
Where healthy babies for all is our passion
A Rutgers-student based startup focused on decreasing infant mortality
BabySafe Health App
The BabySafe Health app is built to be an all-in-one guide for expecting mothers to help them through the difficult pregnancy process. The initial app will contain a healthcare nearby feature that will make use of the user’s zip code to find nearby healthcare providers that BabySafe Health recommends, a symptom tracker for mothers to input their daily symptoms which can then be converted into a PDF to be shown to their doctors, a find friends feature for mothers to interact with each other creating a community, and notifications that can provide mothers with education relevant to the stage of their pregnancy process in multiple languages. Overall, our application aims to have a positive impact by providing mothers with more information at their fingertips and the appropriate resources to obtain the care they need to have successful outcomes.

Our Mission
We strive to improve the doctor / patient relationship by utilizing our mobile applications (BabySafe Health App) features to educate, alert, and empower mothers so they can be fully aware of their own healthcare needs and demand for catered treatment to prevent adverse health effects. Although this app will help all expecting mothers, it is primarily targeted toward women of color to close the health disparity between black and white communities.
