Owlet Inc. has formed a new strategic partnership with PromptCare to expand access to its U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared prescription pulse oximeter, BabySat, through established pediatric care pathways.

“This partnership represents a meaningful step forward in Owlet’s DME expansion strategy,” Owlet President/CEO Jonathan Harris said. “PromptCare’s experience in pediatric respiratory care and relationships with children’s hospitals make them an ideal partner as we continue to scale our clinical distribution model.”

PromptCare has more than 40 years of experience in respiratory care delivery, operating from more than 25 U.S. locations with a large, clinically trained workforce supporting pediatric and home-based care. The partnership aligns Owlet with a DME organization that already supports pediatric and respiratory care programs in children’s hospitals and healthcare systems, several of which have expressed interest in Owlet partnering with PromptCare to support their initiatives.

“Owlet’s technology complements our pediatric respiratory offerings and supports our mission to deliver high-quality, clinically relevant care in the home,” stated Matt Keppler, president of Respiratory at PromptCare. “We’re excited to pilot this partnership and bring additional monitoring options to the families and providers we serve.”

The collaboration strengthens Owlet’s position within the pediatric DME channel, enhances brand legitimacy within established hospital-to-home care pathways, and expands referral opportunities for both organizations. The partnership is expected to contribute to incremental unit shipments through PromptCare as pilot programs expand.

Owlet reportedly is the world’s only company to offer medically-certified wearable pediatric monitors that deliver hospital-grade technology directly in the home. Its award-winning pediatric products and software combine clinically tested monitoring systems, an integrated video platform, and a simple, easy-to-use app, providing parents with real-time health insights to stay informed on their child’s well-being and support restful sleep. Since 2012, more than 2.5 million parents have used Owlet to monitor their children’s well-being and sleep. This adoption has fueled one of the world’s largest pediatric health and sleep data sets, powering innovations that bridge the critical gap between hospital and home. Owlet is driving a new standard in pediatric wellness by pairing advanced medical technology with consumer-friendly design.
