About

Gangarru Group (Gangarru Baby, Gangarru Care & Babymoon Africa) owns and operates the patent on which a unique product has been developed, the Gangarru Baby Carrier, which is based entirely on the principle of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC). In principle, this product is specifically designed for premature babies and offers a proven alternative to incubator care. The baby carrier can be used from birth to 1,000 days after birth, thus targeting both the clinical and consumer markets.

For the clinical market, Gangarru Care & Babymoon Africa, focuses on projects that involve conducting studies in collaboration with neonatologists and neonatology nurses and other healthcare professionals that take a closer look at and validate the application of our baby carriers in relation to Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) and replacement incubator care.

We distinguish between two projects here:

1. Baby Carrier Joey (1.0), the analog version baby carrier that has obtained MDR registration in 2025 in Tanzania and where the Netherlands will follow.

2. The Joey Smart Carrier. This project focuses on the further development of the Joey by equipping it with smart sensors embedded in/on the fabric that can measure and record baby's vital signs such as body temperature, heart rate and saturation and have them read out remotely via a cloud solution and a smart-app.
