Our founder: Nandi Barker, goal is to continuously work to improve Postnatal Care in the UAE that caters to every mum’s special needs. Luckily, Nandi relies on her knowledge, personal postnatal experience, and the excellent foundation set by her mother, New York based baby whisperer, Ms. Joann. With over 30 years of experience as a highly referred baby care specialist throughout the New York tri-state area, Ms. Joann is the guiding light behind Maba Baby.
After the birth of her daughter, Nandi returned to Dubai; she had to figure everything out all on her own as her mum was not available to travel due to covid restrictions — She then hired nurses/midwives from some of Dubai’s well-sort after baby care agencies but found herself teaching the nurses basic infant care; instead of having a soothing transition into motherhood with their help, she was doing everything all at once, on top of being a working mum. This became overwhelming because she did not receive the trusted service the agencies promised when she initially hired them. No mum should ever have to experience this, during any stage of motherhood, when hiring professional medical care, especially during the daunting postnatal phase.
