In conversation with Apoorva Pandey, Business Head for Baby Forest Ayurveda

How was Baby Forest Ayurveda born?
Ayurveda has come to be recognized as an alternative medicine practice largely for adults. However, Ayurveda belongs to children as much as it does to grown-ups! In fact, one of the eight branches of Ayurveda is Kaumara-Bhrtya which deals with Balachikitsa (pediatric health care) that pertains to the wellbeing of the child and mother. Using this ancient wisdom to handpick and fuse natural materials and elements to create nourishing Ayurvedic formulations for babies is what Baby Forest is all about. 

The brand’s purpose and the message is “SOHAM OF AYURVEDA,” It means that the brand does not compromise the health of the babies.

Baby Forest represents this kind of loving nurturing and deep care that a mother can provide. The infinite power of nature poured into the secrets of Ayurveda. The kind of wholesome care that only a mother can provide.

How do you see the growth of baby care products

Do you think the rise of e-commerce and online platforms has made it easier for parents to access a wide range of baby care products and how are you setting yourself in this competing industry.
