The story

Founded by Micky Jagtiani in 1973.1

In 1973, Babyshop was founded by Mukesh Jagtiani in Bahrain. In 1990, Babyshop expanded to the UAE with its first store in Sharjah. In 2005, the company increased its focus on child safety and began raising awareness. In cooperation with the Roads and Transport Authority, Babyshop began adding child seats to taxis in Dubai for the "Child Safety First" campaign of 2011. The three-month campaign focused on raising awareness of child safety during daily travel. In 2012, Babyshop backed a survey conducted by AC Nielsen regarding parental concerns of child safety, which resulted in roadshows to educate people on child safety.

Babyshop released a book, "Mom's Little Secret," in 2015 to advise expecting mothers and give tips through toddlerhood. The book featured 27 contributors and more than 40 articles.
