Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A mobile app that tracks infant sleep cycles and feeding patterns to identify correlations between daytime intake and night waking
  2. A peer-support platform connecting parents of infants with similar sleep patterns to share non-medical strategies for night weaning
  3. A digital consultation service providing evidence-based, age-specific guidelines on infant nutritional needs versus comfort-seeking behaviors
