Trixie Tracker Testimonials, Press and Reviews

What parents are saying about Trixie Tracker…

We use it religiously

“I love your site, we use it religiously and I have recommended it to my friends.”
– Casey (email)

The pumping function is so useful

“The pumping function is so useful. I can’t say enough good things of this feature. I first tried to do it in excel, but was getting impossible. As a new mom of twins, there is just no time to keep up. Then my husband found the site. Thank you so much for inventing such a marvelous tool.”
– Katrin (email)

If not a life saver, a sanity saver

“I really can’t imagine trying to have kept a sleep log on my own to be able to show the doctors what we were dealing with so TT has definitely been, if not a life saver, a sanity saver for me.”
– Jena (email)

A big use for me is being able to track his food, and to make sure he eats enough

“Trixie Tracker has helped me immensely with my 7 month old son Nickolas. He has a milk protein allergy and he is also failure to thrive, so a big use for me is being able to track his food, and to make sure he eats enough. Thank you for your product.”
– Lisa (email)

He has gone from hardly napping at all… to napping about 3 hours

“Baby brain has meant I can never remember what time stuff happened, how much he drank, etc, etc, so I am delighted that I don’t have to stress, I can just look it up. TT also helped us understand what a big sleep problem our kid had. In the first couple of months he was tracking way below the average sleep time, and we finally sought help which meant he has gone from hardly napping at all during the day to napping about 3 hours. Thanks heaps for your site!”
– Amanda (email)

Thanks — I love the site!

“My daughter Danielle has acid reflux pretty badly and before we got it under control with Zantac and Prevacid, TT helped me see how her sleep was affected on days when she had worse reflux. That made me realize how critical it was to address the reflux. Thanks — I love the site!”
– Stacy (email)

A super way to keep track of his baby’s ever-changing schedule

“Ben MacNeill doesn’t claim to be a Super Dad. But he did come up with a super way to keep track of his baby’s ever-changing schedule that has become a successful small business.”

It’s really helped us in so many ways… not to mention communication with our nanny

Can spot growth spurts or other trends

What you can’t change, chart! It’s a kind of zen letting-go of control

“I would have lost my sanity a long time ago without TT! As the mother of a non-sleeper (now 18 months old), my motto has become – what you can’t change, chart! It’s a kind of zen letting-go of control.”
Terri (comments)

I don’t know what we’d do without it

“We’ve been Trixie Tracking our son since we brought him home from the hospital, and I don’t know what we’d do without it.”

It’s been a fantastic tool

“TT is just brilliant. We’ve got about 8 months of data in and we’re really pleased. Sure, there are areas you could (and probably will) develop over time, but as it stands it’s been a fantastic tool, and we’re really grateful.”
