As a new dad, Stephen Gross didn't know much about raising kids and didn't have a strong support group. He found the information available from books, websites, blogs, videos, etc., to be too dense, overwhelming and not simple enough for today's needs. Through countless conversations with those who know best--moms, dads, nurses, doctors, nannies, and more--he distilled caring for a new baby down to the essentials. He realized that if he had this challenge, other new parents must too. And that's where the idea for Simplest Baby came from, to share this collective knowledge in a way that new parents can get the solutions they need quickly and easily. He lives in Los Angeles, California.
