History
Baby Bundle was founded in the United Kingdom by two brothers, Nick and Anthony von Christierson. Both of them used to work in investment banking in the City: Nick was at Greenhill & Co. and Anthony was at Goldman Sachs. When a friend's wife told them how frustrating it was to have half a dozen different baby apps on her smartphone, they left their jobs and set to create a single app that would include all those features. They researched the market by interviewing over 500 parents in the UK and US. It took them a year to build the app, which was named by their mother.
Looking for endorsement, they first went to the US and partnered with parenting expert and pediatrician Dr Jennifer Trachtenberg in mid-2013. Baby Bundle was launched in the US and Canadian App Stores in April 2014. In the same month, it became the #1 parenting app in iTunes and was featured by Apple as the #1 Editor's pick across all categories. It was hailed by Mashable as one of the "Top 5 Can't Miss Apps."
In 2015, Mumsnet, Britain's largest website for parents, co-branded Baby Bundle, promoting it as the official Mumsnet app for parents. It was one of the first apps available for the Apple Watch.
Baby Bundle raised $1.8m seed round in March 2015 to fund development, with the money coming from a range of angel investors from across the US, UK and Asia. The von Christierson brothers have signed a deal to co-brand the app in the Middle East and expect to launch in Europe and Africa.
