The same worried conversation — on repeat — for 10 years.
I spent a decade in product management and enterprise architecture in financial services — building systems where data privacy and security aren't optional. But the conversations that stuck with me weren't about work. They were the ones at lunch. The same questions from every new parent on the team: "Can she eat this at 7 months?" "Wait, was that brand recalled?" "I've made the same three things all week and I'm losing it."
"When my wife and I started planning for our own family, I went looking for the thing every one of those parents wished existed — one app that just handles it. The safety questions, the meal ideas, the grocery list, the recall alerts. It wasn't out there. So I started building it, and I asked every parent I knew to tell me what they actually needed."
NourishNest started with first foods and 6-month-olds, but the vision is bigger. As our family grows, so does the app — from starting solids all the way through toddlerhood and beyond. Every age, every stage, one less thing to worry about.
