Why Tinybeans Is the App Every Nibble and Rest Parent Should Know About

At Nibble and Rest, we're all about making parenting a little easier, a little more joyful, and a lot more supported. From our practical mealtime products to tips that make everyday routines smoother, our mission is to support parents through the beautiful chaos of raising little humans. So when we come across an app that aligns with that mission, we get excited — and Tinybeans is exactly that.

What Is Tinybeans?

Tinybeans is a private, secure app that lets parents document and share their child's moments — from baby’s first smile to toddler antics and beyond. Think of it as a digital journal meets family photo album, designed specifically for modern parenting.

Unlike social media, Tinybeans is built for privacy. You choose who sees what, and there’s no need to worry about likes, algorithms, or overexposure. It’s a safe, intentional way to capture your child’s journey and share it with the people who matter most — grandparents, aunties, uncles, and long-distance friends — without bombarding your social feeds.

Why Nibble and Rest Parents Will Love It

  1. Celebrate the Small Wins (Like That First Bite!)
    Parents using our Messi feeding range or Footsi footrests know that every mealtime milestone — from sitting up properly to trying broccoli for the first time — is worth celebrating. With Tinybeans, you can snap that proud moment and log it with a note, a date, and even a caption about what was on the plate that day. These are the moments that disappear all too quickly, and Tinybeans helps you hold onto them.

  2. Stay Connected with Family (Without Social Media Overload)
    We hear from so many of our customers that they want to share photos of their little ones with family — especially interstate or overseas — but they’re hesitant to use Facebook or Instagram for privacy reasons. Tinybeans solves that. You can invite family members to view your child’s timeline and they’ll get updates via email or the app itself. No scrolling, no ads, just your child’s story.

  3. Track Development and Routines
    From tummy time to toothy grins, Tinybeans helps you track developmental milestones and health records. It’s a helpful tool if you like to reflect on patterns — like when solids were introduced, or how long that sleep regression lasted (we see you, four-month sleep regression warriors!).

  4. Digital Keepsake for the Future
    Someday, your child will love looking back on their own story. Tinybeans acts as a digital baby book that grows with them. It’s searchable, organised, and easy to export — no glue sticks or craft supplies required.

  5. Compliments What We Do at Nibble and Rest
    We’re always trying to make your parenting journey a bit more manageable, more fun, and more connected. Tinybeans shares that mission. Just as we design products that reduce mess and support child development, Tinybeans helps you cherish those moments that happen because of them — like that first spaghetti explosion or the look of concentration when using their footrest during dinner.

Final Thoughts

Parenting is a whirlwind, and the days can feel long — but the years? They fly by. Tinybeans offers a simple, safe, and meaningful way to slow things down, record the journey, and stay connected to the people who care.

We highly recommend it to our Nibble and Rest community — especially for those of you who love finding thoughtful, tech-savvy tools that actually make parenting easier.
