Becoming a father changed the way I think about building products.
As a software developer, I spent years creating tools for businesses and solving technical problems. But parenthood showed me a different kind of problem: the everyday emotional challenges of raising a child.
Tantrums. Bedtime struggles. Fears. Routines. Big emotions in very small humans.
I realized stories can do more than entertain—they can help children understand emotions, build habits, and make hard moments easier for parents too.
That’s why I built ToddlerTales.
Personalized audio stories designed for real parenting challenges—helping parents turn difficult moments into connection, learning, and calm.
My 3-year-old son is the reason this exists.
Sometimes the best startup ideas come from the problems waiting for you at home.

HI, i'm Connell, a Bug Bounty Hunter. I run PentraSec, a Web Application Security boutique, similar to platforms like HackerOne and Bugcroud but more personalised, meaning more focus on in-scope applications to test.
I'd be happy to partner with you to test your applications before attackers do; leaving you to focus on the development while i cover your unintentionally open paths and footprints attackers could crawl into, and making sure you stay trusted and guaranteed by your clients.
Managing a toddlers big emotions during a tantrum is incredibly draining because traditional discipline often feels like it is escalating the conflict rather than resolving it. A fascinating insight is that children are much more likely to adopt a new routine when they hear a character with their own name successfully navigating the same challenge in a story. Have you thought about adding a feature where parents can record a short intro in their own voice to make the personalized story feel even more comforting?
