Hello from our founder

Welcoming everyday magic

Hi, I'm Anjali Harjani, founder of Malabar Baby. I appreciate you taking the time to read our story. As a mother, I live for those moments of 'everyday magic' that I have with my family. Malabar Baby is proud to play a part in those precious moments you have; it is the part of my job that brings the most satisfaction and joy. A little bit of magic each day goes a long way to creating lasting memories.

Our Story

Snuggle more, worry less

As a new mom, I struggled to find products that were sustainable, accessible, felt good after washing— and not boring!  I’m a firm believer that conscious living can be luxurious and affordable.

Moving to Asia

After working in finance for 10-years in New York and London, my husband and I moved to Asia, where we now live with our son Aryan — the real inspiration behind the brand.  While pregnant with Aryan, I was really excited to shop for a crib and bedding, because that was just about all that would fit into my little apartment nursery in Hong Kong!

Becoming a mom

Anyone who knows me, knows I appreciate a cozy nook, colourful cushions and comfortable bedding.  I looked high and low to find bedding, swaddles and lifestyle accessories that were genuinely safe, eco-friendly, made of high-quality breathable materials — and not boring.  At the time, I couldn’t find anything the was affordable or accessible and still felt good after washing.

Starting the journey

I toyed with the idea to start Malabar Baby for months.  I was ‘that’ mom, who did tons of research, factory visits and had endless conversations, before deciding to quit corporate life and begin the journey with my second baby, Malabar Baby.  Since then, it’s been nothing short of fun and inspiring to see Malabar Baby play a small part in the everyday precious moments with your families.

A Global Journey

India

Malabar Hill is my childhood home and the namesake of our brand. It is where I was lucky enough to have had a magical childhood and much of the landscape and memories there serve as inspiration for our designs. Our hand-block printing is all done in India and natural Indian cotton serves as the foundation for many of our products.

Soft and sustainable products for the whole family — consciously crafted for life’s precious moments.

More than just a baby wear company, Malabar Baby invites you to explore our sustainably-sourced natural Indian cotton fabrics, traditional artisanal craftsmanship and timeless designs that the whole family can enjoy.  

Our premium products range from bedding and loungewear, to swaddles, towels and more; styled in coordinated collections that make a stylish addition to home decor, while offering luxurious comfort.

Block-printing and handmade designs are core to the Malabar Baby aesthetic and ethos. The artisanal craftspeople we work with are the true heroes of our brand. It is their dedication to their craft that enables all of our products to be consciously crafted for life's precious moments.
