The App Store offers a number of more and less useful applications for a wide range of user needs. A non-negligible part of this offer is also made up of applications for parents - whether for future, current or adept parents. In our new series, we will gradually introduce the best and most popular applications of this type. In the second part, we will focus on the first days with a small baby.

Babysitter 3G

A number of new parents do not allow all kinds of babysitters who give them the opportunity to supervise the baby who is currently sleeping in another room. If you don't want to invest in baby monitors in the form of walkie-talkies, you can download the relevant application in the App Store. Thanks to this application, you can connect your smartphone to another smartphone, tablet, computer or even Apple TV and monitor the sounds from the room where your child is sleeping via Wi-Fi, 3G or LTE connection. The app also allows you to soothe a crying baby with lullabies or your own voice.

Croissant

Do you have a newborn baby at home, don't have time to go shopping, don't feel like it, or simply have other priorities? Then there is Rohlík for you - a popular service where you can order a wide range of food and other products right to your door. Rohlík offers a rich selection of fresh and perishable food and other goods, as well as a lot of useful services in addition, such as the possibility to store your purchases.

FIRST AID KIT

When was the last time you tested your first aid knowledge? Everyone should master the basics of this field. The First Aid application from the Czech Red Cross will help you refresh your old knowledge, learn new procedures and remember everything you need in case you have to deal with an unexpected health-related situation. The app works all over the world and you can also contact emergency lines from its user interface.

Sleepyhead

Does your child have trouble falling asleep? The best solution is, of course, the presence of a parent, but you can also call the appropriate application for help. The Hufflepuff app offers a handful of sounds from the so-called "white noise" area. It has been proven that some children fall asleep better with sounds of this type than in complete silence. You can combine the sounds as you like and turn on the timer in the application.

Do you know what you are eating?

The mother's proper nutrition is extremely important for the development of her child and for herself. The Information Center for Food Safety (ICBP) has released a special application that will provide you with comprehensive and accurate information related to proper nutrition. It contains information on nutrients, nutritional recommendations, but also on food additives ("E's") and food safety.

The application Do you know what you eat? download for free here.

An essential part of it is also the possibility to contact other mothers with children of the same age.

Parenting is physically and mentally demanding. In order to maintain your mental health, it is good to find at least a few minutes for yourself every day, and ideally to spend them relaxing. The Insight Timer app offers you a variety of guided meditations from a variety of instructors, but you can also play relaxing sounds or music.
