From Sleepless Nights to Mellow Moments: A Mother's Journey
Becoming a mom made sleep a luxury. Struggling through exhaustion, I took a baby sleep class, not just for better nights but for my daughter's well-being.
While seeking peaceful moments for my family, I thought, "Why is this so hard?” As I began guiding other moms, I saw a common struggle: needing simpler help suited to tired and busy parents.
With my product design skills and passion for aiding families, Mellow emerged. Now, I'm excited to share this journey with you. ❤️

Learning and growing together
When little Paari turned 4 months old, things got really tough for us. Sleeping only 2-3 hours at a time, my days and nights became super exhausting. Dealing with sleep deprivation, I felt like I was not the mom I wanted to be for my child. The resources and help that were available asked for too much time and patience from me, more than I had to give. Now, almost a year later, I've learned so much and realize I would have done things differently.
I believe there's a simpler and faster way to help parents handle daily struggles. It starts with understanding both our child's emotions and our own, along with knowing a bit about how kids grow and develop. With the right information easy to reach, parents can manage the rough days and nights more easily. This helps us all enjoy more joyful moments with our child.
This is what I want to offer you through Mellow.

Reinventing how children's sleep is supported
When our first child was born, no amount of advice could have prepared us for the reality of parenting—especially the sleepless nights. My partner and I were beyond exhausted, trying every sleep training method and gadget available, including those with pink noise and red light, rumoured to aid astronauts' sleep. This personal ordeal led me to join Mellow Baby as a fractional CTO, driven by a mission to help other parents navigate these challenging nights.
