Child timeline of tracked entries
This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for cloudimg support services.
Baby Buddy is a popular open source, self-hosted web application that helps caregivers track a baby's daily activities and growth. It records feedings, sleep, diaper changes, tummy time, pumping, temperature and measurements, and presents them as an at-a-glance dashboard of cards, a chronological timeline and a set of reporting charts, so patterns become easy to see. This image delivers Baby Buddy fully installed as a Django application in a dedicated Python virtual environment, served by gunicorn and reverse-proxied behind nginx, so your tracker is operational within minutes of launch with no manual virtualenv wiring, no WSGI server configuration and no reverse-proxy setup required.
Why This Image Instead of Self-Deploying?
Deploying Baby Buddy yourself means installing Python and a build toolchain, creating a virtual environment, compiling the frontend assets with Node and gulp, wiring up gunicorn and systemd, hardening an nginx reverse proxy, generating a secret key and a secure password, and maintaining the stack over time. This image eliminates that effort entirely - a pre-hardened, tested configuration backed by 24/7 expert support, running within minutes of launch instead of hours.
Secure By Default
The image is hardened to be secure by default. No shared or default credential ever ships: the well-known default account is removed at build time, and on the first boot of every instance a fresh secret key is generated and the administrator account is created with a unique, randomly generated password written to a root-only file on the instance. The application is bound to the loopback interface and reached only through nginx, host settings are configured so that sign-in works on the public IP address or a custom domain without a baked-in hostname, and an unauthenticated health endpoint is provided for load-balancer probes.
Ready To Use
A populated demo child with several weeks of sample entries ships so the dashboard, timeline and charts are immediately non-empty; you delete it and add your own child whenever you are ready. The database and uploaded media live on a dedicated, independently resizable storage volume kept separate from the operating system disk. Systemd manages gunicorn and nginx for automatic restarts and clean logging, the OS is fully patched at build time and continues to receive unattended security updates, and 24/7 cloudimg support is included.
Use Cases
- Self-hosted baby and infant activity tracking with full data ownership
- A private, in-your-own-VPC alternative to SaaS baby-tracking apps for people with data-residency or privacy requirements
- Shared caregiver tracking for a household or a childcare setting

Usage instructions
Connect via SSH on port 22 as the default login user for your operating system variant (the user guide lists it per variant; on Ubuntu it is 'ubuntu'). Baby Buddy is served by nginx on port 80: browse to http://<instance-public-ip>/ and sign in as the admin user. Retrieve the generated admin password with: sudo cat /root/babybuddy-credentials.txt. The application runs on loopback port 8000 (gunicorn) and is reached only through the nginx proxy on port 80. The SQLite database and uploaded media live under /var/lib/babybuddy on a dedicated, independently resizable EBS volume. Services are managed with systemctl (babybuddy.service, nginx.service). A demo child with several weeks of sample entries is pre-loaded so the dashboard, timeline and charts are populated - delete it from the Children menu and add your own. The user guide covers first sign-in, changing the admin password, adding a child, and enabling HTTPS with a custom domain.
