Inspired by my sister's anxiety about impending motherhood, BABE Bean helps new parents gain practical parenting experience and reduce childbirth-related anxiety. Research shows new parents rely on family or online searches for knowledge, lacking hands-on experience. Shaped like peanuts to resemble swaddled newborns, BABE Bean addresses holding postures and needs, featuring a pixel screen for feedback. An accompanying app offers customization, reminders, virtual practice, and tutorials. These designs ease the transition to parenthood and alleviate anxiety.
