About Hoola Health
Parenting comes with questions, chaos, joy, and more than a few sleepless nights and through
it all, what every parent needs is a support system that just gets it.
Hoola health (formerly babymd) was created to be exactly that.
Our founder, Deeksha Senguttuvan, spent years working in healthcare and technology, but it was
her close interactions with parents that revealed the real gap in paediatric care. Families were
either navigating large hospitals with long waits and little personal connection, or relying on
scattered, inconsistent care. There had to be a better way.
so in 2024, we began with one clinic and a simple mission: to make paediatric care feel closer,
calmer, and kinder.
Today, hoola health is a growing network of neighbourhood clinics offering everything from
consultations and vaccinations to developmental assessments and therapy services all under
one roof. We're proud to be open 7 days a week, backed by a team that listens rst, treats with
heart, and partners with parents every step of the way.
