Provided are mechanisms and processes for more effectively monitoring infants to enhance caregiving and infant development. In one example, a platform receives measurement data from numerous infant monitoring systems corresponding to different infants in disparate locations and having different ages and developmental levels. Each of the infant monitoring systems includes an infant monitoring device and an infant monitoring hub. The platform analyzes the measurement data to generate a developmental model reflecting a range of characteristics corresponding to the numerous infants. The developmental model, which is customizable for individual infants, is sent to a first infant monitoring system.
