About The Baby Plan

The Baby Plan is an independent, non-commercial project with one simple mission: to make the journey of preconception and parenting a little easier. We build free, fast, intuitive tools alongside clear, fluff-free guides for every stage — from planning a pregnancy to the early years of childhood.

Why this website exists

When I was planning my own family and caring for a newborn, I was overwhelmed with questions. Yet every time I searched for an online calculator or a simple guide, I was met with aggressive advertising, mandatory sign-up pop-ups, and marketing built to exploit parental anxiety.

As a web developer — and, more importantly, as a mother in Québec, Canada — I knew there had to be a better way. So I decided to build what I couldn’t find.

The Baby Plan was born out of a desire to counter the clutter. Combining a developer’s eye for clean, fast design with a parent’s empathy, I made a calm, rapid, entirely free space. Our goal is to give you the clear answers you need, and then get out of your way.

How our tools work

Our calculators use the same standard medical formulas trusted by healthcare professionals — such as Naegele’s rule to estimate your due date (40 weeks from the first day of your last period) and tracking your fertile window from your cycle length.

Best of all, everything runs locally, right inside your web browser.

How we write our guides

Our guides are written to inform and reassure. We turn evidence-based, mainstream medical information into straightforward advice. We say “in most cases” rather than definitive absolutes, because every body and every baby is unique. We update our content to reflect the latest guidance — a helpful starting point for your research, never a substitute for professional medical advice.

How we stay free

We keep our tools free through minimal, non-intrusive ad placements and occasional affiliate links. We only recommend products we genuinely believe add value to your parenting journey, and our recommendations are strictly independent — never altered by commission rates.

Our privacy commitment
