About us

With every child’s digital health twin, Bobo empowers parents to spot issues early, track progress clearly, and feel confident in their child’s wellbeing. We’ve built a connected ecosystem of pediatric specialists, vetted resources, and community tools—so screening turns into action, not another dead-end handout. Through AI-driven insights & smart reminders, parents get early signals for conditions like speech delay, autism, or growth concerns—before they become bigger challenges. And because daily tracking matters too, Bobo makes it simple to log milestones, sleep, growth, and diet quality, keeping families aligned and ahead. Bobo is reimagining pediatric care for families of children 0–6. Available on iOS and Android.

    Late diagnosis and delayed treatment of developmental differences come at a real cost — to families, to health systems, and most importantly, to the individuals themselves. When support is delayed, we see higher long-term healthcare utilization, greater strain on caregivers, missed early-intervention windows, and avoidable challenges in education and social development. These costs compound over time — financially, emotionally, and societally. The hard truth is that many of these outcomes are preventable with earlier screening, clearer pathways to care, and better access to coordinated support. This is why Bobo, we're building better tools in health tech. Because it isn’t just about efficiency — it’s about changing life trajectories. The earlier we identify and support developmental differences, the more options families have, and the better outcomes we can unlock over the long run. Early action isn’t just better care. It’s better outcomes & economics. Today we're proud to release our latest foundational feature which helps parents understand their child's developmental pathways and how to navigate course corrections.

    Different doesn’t mean behind. One of the biggest gaps in pediatric care isn’t diagnosis—it’s understanding. A developmental difference is not the same as a developmental delay, yet many families are left navigating that distinction alone. Nearly 1 in 6 children experience a developmental difference or disability, and early clarity—not panic—is what changes outcomes. When parents have the right language, context, and tools, they show up to care more informed and more empowered. At Bobo, we’re building infrastructure that helps families understand development earlier and support their children with confidence. Different paths deserve better guidance—not guesswork. If you’re working in pediatrics, digital health, or family care, this conversation matters.

    Our CEO Grant McDonald shared his perspective in the Winnipeg Free Press this week on what it’s really like operating in the Canadian market as a digital health company. Our mission at Bobo is simple: make it easier for families to access the support they need, wherever they live. When systems are fragmented, innovation slows—and families feel it. We’re hopeful the growing conversation around interprovincial trade turns into meaningful action that puts people and care first. Thank you to Gabrielle Piché for highlighting this important issue. 📖 in the comments

    We’re honored to be featured in Today's Parent latest article on developmental delays. The piece highlights what matters most: ✔️ early observation ✔️ trusted information ✔️ supporting parents without panic or over-medicalization That’s the space Bobo exists in. Bobo helps families track developmental patterns, symptoms, routines, and milestones—so concerns are captured early, organized clearly, and easier to discuss with care teams when it matters. Just structured support for real life between appointments. Thank you to Today’s Parent for elevating thoughtful, evidence-based conversations around child development—and for including Bobo as a resource for families. 🔗 Article link in comments
