Design a product to solve pain points for working parents.

 

Different stages of parenting:

1. Newborn baby

2. School

3. College

                    Need help the most

Newborn baby    OOOOO

School               OOOO

College        O

 

Let's focus on working parents with a newborn baby

 

A day in the life of a working parent:

Wake up early in the morning->Laundry->Cook food->Travel to office->Work->Travel back home->Cook food->Clean utensils->Extra laundry->Sleep

 

Let's look at each stage in detail:

1. Wake up early in the morning: Alarm / When baby starts crying

2. Laundry: Washing Machine/Maid

3. Cook food: Ready to eat meal/Delivery service/Dine out

4. Travel to office/home: Pvt vehicle/Government transport/ride-hailing service

5. Work: Office tools

6. Sleep: Sleeping app

 

Largest pinpoint: Parents are not aware of how to deal with various situations when it comes to feeding a baby or making him/her laugh or walk etc

 

Solution:

1. Your Help

 

Problems it will solve:

1. Large database of solutions by certified doctors on nutrition and other essentials for the baby

2. Instant helpline where parents can call and ask their doubts

3. Call a doctor 

4. Call a helper
