RENOWNED PAEDIATRICIAN & CHILD DEVELOPMENT EXPERT

Dr. Harvey Karp, Founder & CEO

Dr. Harvey Karp, one of the America's most trusted paediatricians and child development experts, is on the faculty of the USC School of Medicine and a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). After decades of treating patients, Dr. Karp founded Happiest Baby, a smart-tech and parenting solutions company.

There, he invented SNOO Smart Sleeper, a responsive bassinet that quickly calms fussing and aids infant sleep. SNOO is the first—and only—medical device to receive De Novo Authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its ability to keep sleeping babies safely on their backs.

After decades of treating patients, Dr. Karp vaulted to global prominence with the release of the bestselling Happiest Baby on the Block and Happiest Toddler on the Block. His landmark methods have since become standard pediatric practice, translated into more than 20 languages and have helped millions of parents.

Dr. Karp has been a tireless advocate and a national leader in the promotion of children's rights to a healthy and safe environment. His work has directly led to U.S. state and national laws protecting children.
