Be among the first families to try it

I went looking for an outdoor guide for my daughter. It didn't exist.

When I started taking my baby outside, I had a lot of questions. Where do I actually go with a 4-month-old? What do I need to bring? Is this park welcoming for families like mine?

I'm a data engineer. I've built systems at Microsoft and Dropbox. So I did what I do — I started building the thing I couldn't find.

First Outside is the outdoor guide I needed as a new mom. It matches activities to your baby's exact age, finds parks near you, tells you what to pack based on the weather, and puts safety guidance front and center — including the stuff that matters for melanated skin.

The outdoors already belongs to us. Now the tools match.

Everything you need for your next outing

Activities, parks, gear, and safety — matched to your family's age and location.

🌿

Activities by age

38 curated activities for babies and toddlers 0–5 years. Filtered to your child's exact age range, with step-by-step guides you can follow in the moment.

📍

Parks near you

Local and national parks sorted by distance. Accessibility info, restroom availability, shade — the details that matter when you're packing a diaper bag.

🎒

Smart Prep Kit

A packing checklist generated from today's weather, your baby's age, and the activity you picked. Check off what you have. Find what you need.

🛡️

Safety that sees you

Sun protection for melanated skin. Heat thresholds by age. Water safety. Bug prep. Written for your family — not a generic pamphlet.

Some of us are writing our own outdoor story

Maybe you grew up hiking every weekend. Maybe you didn't. Maybe your backyard is your trailhead and that's enough for right now.

First Outside meets your family where you are — whether that's your porch, a city park, or a national trail. No experience required. No expensive gear. Just you and your kid, outside.

This is for all of us.
