Dads are stepping up : how apps like Coogli help share the mental load of parenting

When a baby arrives, life as a couple changes forever. Between medical appointments, sleepless nights, endless to-do lists, and managing everyday tasks, the mental load piles up fast.
Traditionally, it’s the mom who ends up carrying most of it. But today’s dads want to be fully involved from day one — and that’s where apps like Coogli come in, making it easier to share responsibilities from pregnancy through to baby’s daily care, even with the help of a nanny or childcare provider.

During pregnancy : preparing together, step by step

Parenthood doesn’t begin at birth — it starts long before.
Pregnancy brings appointments, classes, check-ups, shopping lists, and a thousand small decisions that shape life as future parents.

With Coogli, both parents can stay connected and organized throughout the pregnancy:

A shared calendar for doctor’s visits, ultrasounds, and antenatal classes
Reminders and notes for upcoming tasks: “book birth prep class,” “buy car seat,” “pack hospital bag”
A place to store important documents like prescriptions and medical notes
A shared to-do list for everything from nursery setup to name ideas

By getting organized together early on, couples begin to share the mental load equally, setting the stage for a balanced co-parenting journey.

After birth : the ultimate tool for Baby tracking and family organization

Once the baby arrives, the pace of life accelerates. Feedings, naps, diaper changes, medications, and doctor appointments — it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
Coogli, a smart baby-tracking app for new parents, was designed to make all of this easier and more transparent for everyone involved.

What Coogli can do :

A shared baby journal

Both parents — and even the nanny — can log everything: feeding times, nap durations, diaper changes, or medications given. Every entry is timestamped and synchronized.

Notifications and reminders

Coogli gently reminds you: “next feeding at 2 PM,” “doctor’s appointment at 10 AM,” “vaccination next week.” No more mental checklists or post-it chaos.

Real-time synchronization

If dad is at work, he can still see what’s happening: “baby drank 150 ml at 7:30 AM, napped for 1 hour, diaper changed at 10 AM.”
There’s no need to ask or guess — everyone stays informed in real time.

History and trends

Coogli keeps track of sleep averages, feeding frequency, and patterns over time — helping parents spot changes and adapt smoothly.

Memories and milestones

Beyond routines, Coogli also lets parents record “baby’s first smile,” “first steps,” or precious photos — keeping emotional moments safe and shareable.

Multi-user access (mom, dad, nanny)

One of Coogli’s best features: it’s not just for parents.
If a nanny or childcare provider looks after your baby, she can log everything she does — feedings, naps, diaper changes.
When parents check the app later, they instantly see how the day went.

Shared responsibility

With full visibility, dads can take the initiative: “I’ll handle bath time tonight” or “I’ll prep tomorrow’s bottles.”
This turns parenting into teamwork instead of delegation.

From organization to harmony : the couple effect

When everything is shared clearly, communication becomes easier.
There’s less frustration, fewer misunderstandings, and more mutual respect.
Coogli isn’t just a digital tool — it’s a quiet ally that helps couples stay connected, organized, and emotionally balanced during one of life’s most demanding stages.

By lightening the mental load, Coogli gives parents the freedom to focus on what truly matters: bonding, rest, laughter, and love.

Dads taking the lead: a cultural shift

Today’s fathers want to be hands-on — taking parental leave, attending appointments, giving bottles, changing diapers, and being present.
Apps like Coogli empower this shift by making family organization simpler, fairer, and more transparent.

The result ?
Less guilt, less mental burden, and a stronger sense of teamwork between mom and dad.
Parenthood becomes something you live together, not something one person manages while the other helps “when they can.”

A more peaceful parenthood, for everyone involved

Thanks to smart, family-friendly tools like Coogli, life after birth doesn’t have to feel chaotic.
By syncing everyone’s efforts — parents, babysitters, grandparents, or childcare staff — Coogli creates calm where there used to be confusion.

It’s not about perfection.
It’s about harmony, trust, and teamwork — the keys to a balanced and happy family.
