A multiple-event timer device for timing various infant-related biological functions such as diaper changes, feeding and sleeping is described herein. The timer device has a plurality of digital timers corresponding to a plurality of displays and a plurality of buttons. Each timer, display and button grouping functions independently. Each button includes an icon and/or is shaped to designate an event associated with that button. To reset a timer, its corresponding button is pressed-and-released. Each timer has an independent programmable upper limit or alarm setpoint. If the upper limit for a given timer is reached, an LED behind the associated button is illuminated. In some embodiments, audible alarms are activated. To set an alarm setpoint, the appropriate button is depressed and held, then the same button is pressed-and-released until the desired setpoint is reached. The timer device allows a user to monitor a plurality of events simultaneously.
