The maalish
your Nani knew.
Newborn massage & bath, and recovery care for the mother — at home in Pune. Two-hour daily sessions by certified caregivers, pediatrician-guided and never rough.

Your grandmother treated these weeks as protected time. Modern research agrees with her.
of postpartum depression, with consistent daily massage and recovery care.
Babies who receive daily maalish settle faster — which means you sleep too.
across 500+ sessions, using strokes mapped by our pediatric advisor.
Gentle abdominal strokes stimulate the vagus nerve, aiding digestion and settling a newborn into the ‘rest and digest’ state — where babies feed better and sleep deeper.
Baby massage & bath.
Mother's recovery.
Every session is a ritual — rooted in generations of Indian postpartum tradition, delivered under pediatrician-reviewed protocols.
Baby Massage & Bath

Traditional Dhuri & Bath
The sacred first bath — warm water, turmeric, neem, and hands that know exactly how.
Doctor-Approved Herbal Kit

“Every technique we use is mapped by our pediatric advisor. Nothing random. Nothing rough. Only what your baby's body — and yours — actually need.”

A fresh kit, every visit
Sanitized uniform, disposable apron, and a sealed oil kit opened in front of you. Clinical hygiene in a warm home ritual.
Techniques a doctor would sign
No forceful pulling or stretching — every stroke follows the pediatrician-mapped protocol, adapted to your baby's weight and week.
Care that never stops
If your Nani is unavailable, a certified replacement arrives within 24 hours and the missed session is added back. A coordinator tracks every family, daily.
This is the difference between hoping a recommendation works out — and knowing exactly who is coming, what she's trained in, and who stands behind her.
A day with your Nani
A focused two-hour session, every day. No live-in stranger — your home stays your own.
They were exactly where you are.
My daughter wasn't putting on weight and I was quietly panicking about it. On the first day Vandana tai told me to give it fifteen days of proper maalish. She was right. And now my baby lights up the moment she walks in.
My back pain after delivery was unbearable, and everyone kept telling me it was normal. Nani's Touch said it shouldn't be. Within a month it had almost entirely gone — and she answered every anxious question I had, patiently.
We live in a 2BHK, so a live-in was never an option for us. Two focused hours, and then our home is ours again. That one decision made the whole forty days feel manageable.
“My colicky baby settled by the third session.”
“First night we both slept more than three hours.”
“She explained every stroke. I stopped worrying.”
“His weight finally started climbing.”
