How to use JoeyMate.

Step-by-step help for logging baby care, using timers, sharing updates with family, checking insights, and managing your account.

Getting started

Sign in and choose the baby profile.

Use the same login across web, iPhone and Android. Once you are in, JoeyMate opens to the baby care timeline.

Start using the app

  1. Open the app from your phone or go to app.joeymate.com.
  2. Sign in with your account details, or create an account if your family is new.
  3. Confirm the baby profile shown at the top of the app.
  4. Use the bottom tabs to move between Events, Family, Baby and More.
If a co-carer invited you, use the invite flow from their link or code so you join the correct shared family feed.

Daily care

Log feeds, nappies, sleep and custom events.

Quick actions are built for one-handed logging during busy care moments. You can add details straight away or edit the event later.

Add a care event

  1. Tap the plus button or a quick-log action on the Events screen.
  2. Choose the event type, such as bottle, breastfeed, sleep, wet nappy, medicine, note or custom event.
  3. Add the time, amount, side, duration, note or photo where needed.
  4. Tap save. The event appears in the shared timeline for approved family members.

Use custom events for moments that do not fit the standard categories, such as childcare updates, teething, appointments or milestones.

Timers

Track sleep as it happens.

Live timers help when you know something started but do not yet know the final duration.

Use a sleep timer

  1. Open Events and choose Sleep.
  2. Start the timer when the sleep begins.
  3. Leave the app or keep it open while the timer runs.
  4. Stop the timer when baby wakes, then save the sleep event.
If you forget to start or stop a timer, manually edit the event time before saving.

Family sharing

Invite trusted carers into the same record.

Partners, grandparents and trusted helpers can see shared updates without passing notes back and forth.

Invite a co-carer

  1. Open the Family tab.
  2. Choose Invite or share the invite code shown for your baby profile.
  3. Send the code or link to the trusted person.
  4. They sign in and join the shared feed for that baby.

Only invite people you trust with your child's care information. You can remove access from the family settings when needed.

Insights and routines

Review patterns, budget items and guided activities.

Use the extra tools when you want a broader view of routine, spending or age-appropriate activity ideas.

Analytics

Open the Baby or insights area to review trends across sleep, feeds, nappies and growth. Trends become more useful as more history is logged.

Baby budget

Use budget tools to record baby-related costs and compare them against your target. Add regular items as soon as you pay for them.

Guided exercises

Open exercises for movement ideas such as tummy time, reaching, balance and early play. Follow your healthcare professional's advice if your baby has specific needs.

Photos and notes

Add notes or photos to care records when context matters, such as a rash, medicine instruction, first food, milestone or childcare update.
