Huckleberry Connects With $12.5M For Baby Sleep Advice App

Irvine-based Huckleberry, a developer of an artificial intelligence-driven app which helps parents with pediatric sleep advice, says it has raised $12.5M in a Series A funding. The funding was led by Morningside Ventures and also included Spero Ventures and Tamarisc VC. The company says the round brings its total raised to $16M. Huckleberry's app provides advice to new parents on how to manage the sleep patterns for newborns and even older children.
