About Door Nanny

Our Core Values

  • Risk Reduction: We believe the best way to protect children is through risk reduction thus limiting accident potential.

  • Simple & Reliable: Door Nanny installs quickly without any tools,  causes no damage and can be gifted to another family when your no longer using it. 

  • Innovation: Door Nanny was invented by a child-proofer in direct response to feedback from real parents to solve real problems. Elon Musk’s philosophy was followed - “Actively seek out and listen very carefully to negative feedback”. To solve a problem -come up with a solution, prototype, improve, reduce, delete unnecessary parts, test, reduce more unnecessary parts to make a useful and beautiful product.  

Development of Door Nanny

The Door Nanny - Child/Pet Safety Latch, like most inventions,  was born out of necessity when the founder of GooGooProof,  noticed consistent complaints about traditional door-top latches. #1 - They were hard to install #2 They required the use of a drill and tools for installation. #3 They did not work efficiently for short adults or tall doors. #4 Installation hardware caused damage requiring repair.

GooGooProof recognized a need for a non-damaging, tool-free door latch that:

  1. Installed on vertical side of door thus reachable by short users and functioned efficiently on tall doors

  2. Operates from both sides of the door

  3. DIY friendly, no tools, no damage

After diligently creating, testing and redesigning 75 prototypes in his garage, Mike masterfully perfected The Door Nanny with inspiration from the mindset of Elon Musk. Simplify, reduce parts, streamline, test, reduce parts, verify and launch.
