ITZBEEN Baby Care Timer

It's about time someone created a tool to help new parents keep track of the overwhelming number of baby care details. Now someone has!

ITZBEEN Baby Care Timer was invented by a new mom and dad who found themselves sleep-deprived and needing help to remember baby care details like when their baby last ate or napped. They tried charts and journals but thought there had to be a better way, so they invented one. And alas, ITZBEEN was born. The ITZBEEN Baby Care Timer is a multi-purpose tool that helps you remember the basic details of baby care. It has four timers for changing, feeding, napping and more that count up with the touch of a button!

The ITZBEEN has several other helpful features including a nursing reminder switch that easily reminds mom which side baby nursed from last, a soft-glow nightlight to help parents find their way in the dark without waking the baby and a backlit display so parents can read the times and the clock in the dark. Plus, a back clip makes the ITZBEEN totally portable and allows for hands-free use of the nightlight!

Submitted By: katrina from everett, wa   Date: 11/07/2008 I thought newborns slept all the time and it would be a great vaca from work. Yeah right. I can't remember anything in my current state. Now I don't have to wear that stupid saftey pin or yell at the clock. Works great for communicating with my husband and the nanny thinks it will maker her log book easier too. I just wish it kept a back log so I could go back to track feedings and changings and the back light wasn't so blinding at night. Now if I could just remember to push the buttons...

Submitted By: Elizabeth from Kansas   Date: 10/30/2008 I don't know how we made it without the itzbeen with our first two kids. We love this thing. The most notable benefits are that my husband is not constantly asking, "Is he hungry?" every time the baby cries (he goes for the itzbeen instead) and the little light is perfect for getting the baby latched on during middle-of-the-night feedings. I am buying one for every new mom I know.

Submitted By: Marina from Nipomo, CA   Date: 09/22/2008 I was very excited about this product. I read many great reviews and was in need of something like this. I purchased it and was very disappointed when the digital display was defective displaying only parts of numbers making the screen illegible. I contacted customer service and was issued a replacement. Unfortunately, the second ITZBEEN had the same defect. Not one of the four timers could be read legibly or programed correctly. Poor manufacturing, makes this product a waste of money. what a disappointment.

Submitted By: Mandy from Dallas, TX   Date: 07/29/2008 I actually just bought a replacement for my first ItzBeen which I dropped one too many times. It's so handy and lets dads, grandparents and babysitters know when the next feeding is due. It was especially useful in the first few months (in the middle of the night) when it's hard to keep up with the every 2 or 3 hour feedings.

Submitted By: Megan Sommer from Kaufman, TX   Date: 06/27/2008 LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! I do wish they would have made the timer/alert settings in every 15min intervals instead of every 30 min

Submitted By: Katie, mom of 4 from Suburban St Louis, MO   Date: 05/08/2008 I just had my 4th baby and this product has been my crutch. Yes, I lived without it for the first 3 but this time my brain is completely fried and I can't remember what day of the week it is sometimes. I originally thought this was something that first time moms would buy b/c that's when you think you have to have everything (diaper wipes warmer, pacifier sanitizer etc...). I bought it and find that I use it daily. My baby is now 3 months old and this hasn't left my side since! I use the switch on the bottom to track which side I fed her last on. The night light helps me get her latched on at night while we are feeding in bed. I was also able to use the clip on hook on the back to fasten the unit to my shirt or bra strap when I changed her diaper in the middle of the night. It provided just enough light to let me see what kind of mess I was changing! The timer for the diaper change is nice b/c with 4 kids running around (2 in diapers) it's hard to remember who has been changed and when. The feeding timer is nice b/c I get so busy with my other 3 kids that when she starts to fuss and I think "I just fed you, you can't seriously be hungry", I look down at the timer and see that ItzBeen about 2.5 hours. I know it really is time to feed her! I don't really use the sleep timer to track sleep but I use it to track other things. I use the miscellaneous timer to track when was the last time I pumped alot. The backlit feature is great. Bright enough and long enough for me to read the information I need. After about 3 months of use though I dropped it one too many times and the backlit button kind of sunk back into the unit, but I can still push it. I've used this thing so much the icons on the buttons are starting to wear off. The key pad lock on the side is nice too. I just wish it would lock the night light as well. When it gets tossed and squished in my diaper bag I often find it with the night light on. I've changed the batteries once in 3 months. This has definitely been worth my $$$!

Submitted By: Ted from San Bernardino, CA   Date: 12/16/2007 Every parent needs this. I for one am a gadget guy, but this one my wife fell in love with too! Instead of boring you with more of the same from the description, I'd rather add to it with my experience with it. Number one, it's quite durable. I've dropped it numerous times on our tile, and it keeps going. The light is soft, yet bright enough to get around. In fact, the backing light (which is triggered by a button) is harsher than the flashlight. The lock is indispensable as you can inadvertently hit the buttons in transit. And honestly, it comes down to have a much better idea of how long the baby has slept, been fed, and diaper changed; instead of having to guess or always check the clock.
