Problem
Parents and caregivers of children with Type 1 diabetes must manually track meals, insulin doses, and communicate updates to multiple caregivers, which is time‑consuming and prone to errors. Lack of real‑time coordination can lead to missed doses or delayed interventions, increasing the risk of complications.
Solution
Nurtural provides an AI‑driven caregiving companion that lets users speak naturally to log carbohydrate intake, calculate active insulin, and set reminders without manual entry. The system integrates with continuous glucose monitors (CGM) and insulin pumps to deliver real‑time insights, detect trends, and suggest dosage adjustments. It learns each family’s routines, anticipates needs, and proactively notifies relevant members of the care team—parents, school nurses, grandparents, and clinicians—with context‑aware updates. By centralizing data and automating communication, Nurtural reduces administrative burden and helps families manage the condition more safely and efficiently.
Target Audience
Primary users are parents and caregivers of children aged 5‑17 with Type 1 diabetes, as well as associated care team members such as school nurses, grandparents, and healthcare providers.
