For healthcare professionals

Evidence-based innovation in neonatal care

As a healthcare professional, you strive for the best possible outcomes for your patients. At Gangarru, we develop solutions that support you in this mission, specifically tailored to the unique challenges of neonatal care.

Our clinically validated baby carriers are designed to facilitate Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) — an intervention that, according to the WHO, can reduce mortality in premature and low birth weight babies by up to 40%. Yet global implementation of KMC still falls short of its potential, often due to practical barriers that we help to remove.

The Gangarru clinical carrier stands out with a design specifically tailored to the hospital environment. Easily adjustable for different caregivers, machine-washable at high temperatures for full disinfection, and designed for optimal positioning and monitoring of the baby. Our carrier makes prolonged Kangaroo Care practically feasible in the NICU, resulting in improved patient outcomes:

  • More stable vital signs (heart rate, breathing, temperature)

  • Accelerated weight gain (30–50 grams per day)

  • Shorter hospital stays (average 2–3 weeks)

  • Improved breastfeeding outcomes

  • Stronger parent-child bonding and increased parental confidence

We understand that implementing new protocols requires time and resources. That’s why we offer a complete support package for healthcare institutions, including staff training programs, implementation protocols, and ongoing assistance. Our approach is based on years of collaboration with hospitals in diverse contexts — from advanced NICUs in Europe to resource-limited healthcare facilities in East Africa.

As a forward-thinking professional, you may also be interested in our Smart Carrier 2.0, currently in development. This innovation combines the proven benefits of Kangaroo Care with non-invasive monitoring of vital signs, allowing you to unite the medical advantages of monitoring with the irreplaceable value of human contact.

We invite you to join our ongoing clinical studies or to start a conversation about how Gangarru can support care in your institution. Together, we can work toward better outcomes for the most vulnerable patients — a mission that connects us all.
