Digital parenting platform BabyChakra plans to broaden user base, acquires Tinystep


Digital parenting platform BabyChakra, part of direct-to-consumer (D2C) beauty brand The Good Glamm Group, has acquired regional parenting platform Tinystep for an undisclosed sum.


Tinystep will merge its social assets with BabyChakra’s existing platform.

“The regional reach of Tinystep’s digital and social assets will help BabyChakra reach out to newer user bases with deeper, more personalized care. This is a collaboration that will accelerate our vision of being a trusted care partner to every mom and child in India,” said Naiyya Saggi, founder, BabyChakra.

Tinystep founder Suhail Abidi will exit to start a new venture after the sale.

“BabyChakra is the perfect place to take the business ahead; this will help Tinystep increase its reach and impact,” Abidi said.

BabyChakra has earmarked Rs 100 crore to build India’s largest mom-baby content-to-commerce platform over the next three years.
