The site gained attention by many parents across major cities but mostly in New York.

The site was later bought by CNET.

The site had employed David Karp as a software consultant before he went on to found Tumblr using his earnings from (and experience gained during) his time at UrbanBaby. [1]

A similar site in Japan is the Yomiuri Shimbun's Hatsugen Komachi.
