2. Description of Service
Baaby is a comprehensive directory connecting expectant and new parents with maternal and infant care providers across the United States.

In addition to our provider directory, the Site offers a suite of tools and resources designed to support parents and parents-to-be, including a due date calculator, baby name explorer, pregnancy nutrition guide, birth plan builder, hospital bag checklist, and weight tracker. We may add, modify, or discontinue features or tools at our discretion and without prior notice.
