BabyZone.com was a website for mothers and mothers-to-be. It offered information on the full pregnancy timeline, from "trying to conceive", through pregnancy, childbirth, and raising an infant.[1][2]

BabyZone.com was owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company, specifically by the Disney Interactive Family business unit within Disney Interactive.[3] Other sites in the Disney Interactive Family group include Spoonful.com and Babble.com.[4]

Disney acquired BabyZone from Kaboose in April 2009.[5][6]
