Honestly, white noise. Idk if you've tried it but it changed the game for us.

The only thing that worked for us was going for a drive. I know, sounds like a hassle, but it was worth it.

Blackout blinds and a consistent wind-down made the biggest difference for ours.

A slightly later bedtime actually helped us. Counterintuitive but it worked.

For every parent

Not just a mums' app.
For dads, too.

Raising little ones is a team effort, and right now, there aren't enough options for dads to find their communities. Create events to bond with both mums and dads in your area.

Our story

Eltera was created by a mum who longed for a community of her own but didn't know how to find it. So she came up with a way for other parents to find theirs.
