A first time mum navigating maternity leave and founder of Konker.

My story

When I emerged from the haze of the newborn phase and started exploring the city again, I realised just how different it is navigating the world as a parent.

In the early days, I stuck close to home, worried about not knowing where to change or feed my baby. But as she grew older, I wanted to make the most of our time together with fun, meaningful experiences that helped me feel like me again.

The challenge? Finding out about what to do without spending hours I didn’t have researching or keeping up with what’s new.

You know that saying, “The days are long, but the years are short”? It had never felt more true.

Various parent WhatsApp groups were a lifesaver once I found them—but scrolling endlessly to find that one recommendation was exhausting. That’s when it hit me: What if all this shared wisdom could live in one simple, easy-to-navigate place?

The idea for Konker was born.
