How Nookly works
Made in five stepsFrom child to finished thing, in five steps.
Step one
First, Nookly gets to know the child.
Before anything is made, you tell Nookly who this child actually is — how they look, who lives in their house, the friends and pets they talk about, and what they are obsessed with this month. Everything Nookly creates later is built from this one profile.
Set up once. Reused in everything after.

Grandparents, and whoever else counts
A sense of belongingLittle details. A bigger sense of belonging.
The song Grandma hums. The street Uncle grew up on. The joke only Grandpa finds funny.
Grandparents, great-aunts, godparents, neighbors, chosen family — anyone your child trusts can be part of this. Include whoever fits your family, and leave room for those who aren’t here.
Start with the memories your relative chooses to share. If you add an imaginary adventure, label it together so your child knows which parts really happened.
