Baby’s Brain at the Center
The Safety of Routine
From diaper changes to meal time, nap time to bath time, your daily routine with baby is actually the best framework for engaging in brain-building moments of enrichment. During the predictability of your daily routine, your baby’s nervous system is most calm and open to novel experiences.
Our Developmental Philosophy
Rather than a race to be won, we see development as a dynamic flow where the process matters much more than the milestones. Milestones are to be celebrated, but between each big ‘WOW’ moment of development, there are countless opportunities to create a more connected and resilient brain.
We’re here to help you make the most of this incredible window of opportunity for your baby’s brain development and to navigate development at your own pace in a way that’s unique to you and your baby. Check out The Wow and The How, our exclusive month-by-month guide to baby's development, backed by today's leading scientific research and pediatric practice.
Fewest Best Things
We’re focused on bringing the highest-quality, most rigorously designed, and sustainably made essentials to every family. Every choice in our design and manufacturing process is thoughtfully considered to ensure that our essentials simplify living, cut down on clutter, and allow parents to get back to what matters most - connecting with their baby.
Third-Party Verified
Our entire suite of essentials is made to meet the strictest standard for health and transparency developed by a team of chemists and toxicologists at the Environmental Working Group who understand neurotoxin exposure and how to avoid it. We’re the proud pioneers of the first ever EWG VERIFIED diaper. Our diapers are made without 2800+ chemicals and materials linked to health harm, and we rigorously test for safety at every step.
Made to Work
As we raise the bar on safety and transparency, we never lose sight of making products that work as hard as we do. We’ve scoured the globe for partners that are innovating at the forefront of performance and sustainability so that our essentials always perform when it matters most.
B Corp Certified
Certified B Corporations are businesses that meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose. HealthyBaby is proudly a B-Corp, and we’re accelerating a global culture shift to redefine success in business and build a more inclusive and sustainable economy.
EU Made & Carbon Neutral
From our years of experience making products with purpose, we have seen European standards rise to the occasion first. Under the guidelines of REACH (Registration, Evaluation, and Authorisation of Chemicals) in the EU, the sourcing, use, and disclosure of chemicals are tightly restricted to protect consumers and the environment from harm. We scoured the globe for a diaper production partner at the forefront of innovation, safety, and transparency that would deliver on our mission. And we found them - in Europe! Our diapers are made at a carbon-neutral facility that runs on 100% green renewable energy.
Plastic Neutral
Plastic waste has no place in our vision of the future. We embrace our responsibility to clean up the world by eliminating and reducing plastic wherever possible. Our diapers are a Certified Plastic Neutral Product, and we’re not stopping there. Stopping the demand for unnecessary chemicals is not only good for our babies’ brains and bodies, it’s also our duty to protect the natural world.

Our Founder, Shazi, has learned so much from her experience with her own two children and wants to share all the hard-fought wisdom she wishes she knew when she started her family.

Meet the best and brightest experts on the cutting edge of maternal and infant health, mental health, developmental neurobiology, and enrichment. From developmental pediatricians to neurologists, OBGYNs to doulas, we’ve distilled the wisdom from our community of experts for you.
Story of Shazi & Joe
Inspired by our son and daughter, we connected the dots. We saw the need for an ecosystem of knowledge, care, and vision paired with action and innovation. We believe we change the world one family at a time when we all improve health and developmental health outcomes. By combining forces with all those that cared for our son, and helped us on our pre-conception and pregnancy journey with our daughter, we’ve built a village of love and knowledge that we want to share with you. Our purpose is bigger than any one of us, and we are making change so we can have future change-makers!
Zane & Asha
Our journey started in 2003 when I founded Happy Family Organics to provide safe clean food to our babies as the foundation for health. I led it to become the largest and fastest-growing organic baby brand in the U.S. During this time, we embarked on our parenting journey and learned personally that children today face even deeper health challenges.
Beyond food alone, we learned there is so much more happening in baby’s environment that influences their health. It was the unique experience of our children that led to HealthyBaby.
Zane, my oldest, was diagnosed with autism at age 2 after a seemingly typical first 2 years. Zane is now 13, and like the 1 in 6 families whose children are diagnosed with developmental disorders every year, we’re always seeking answers to why these epidemics rage on.
Armed with hundreds of research studies and with direct access to the world’s leading obstetricians, developmental pediatricians, neurologists, and environmental biologists, we then had our second beautiful baby, Asha. She is the beneficiary of all of this research, protection, and enrichment, and we want to share it with you. She is healthy, connected, and uniquely empathetic.
