Two parents. A newborn who wouldn't sleep. A phone full of notes, alarms, and unanswered questions. We built Lunara because we needed it — and we think you do too.
In 2022, our co-founders Mia and Rajan brought home their daughter, Luna. Like every new parent, they were overwhelmed — not just by the love, but by the sheer complexity of caring for a brand-new human being.
Sleep schedules, feeding windows, vaccine appointments, developmental milestones — all scattered across a dozen apps, a paper notebook, and a group chat with their pediatrician. There had to be a better way.
So Mia, a pediatric nurse, and Rajan, a machine learning engineer, built one. First for themselves. Then, when friends started asking for it, for everyone.
"We weren't trying to build a startup. We were just two exhausted parents who desperately needed clarity at 3am."
"We believe every parent deserves to feel calm, capable, and seen — not overwhelmed by data, but guided by it."
Lunara was built on a set of quiet, firm convictions about what technology should feel like when it's woven into the most precious, vulnerable time of a family's life.
Technology should reduce your mental load, not add to it. Every Lunara screen is designed to be understood in a sleepy, half-awake moment at 3am.
Our AI is grounded in peer-reviewed pediatric research. We surface only what's helpful — never what's alarming. Informed parents feel calm, not fearful.
Your child's health information belongs to you and no one else. We are HIPAA-compliant, end-to-end encrypted, and will never sell a single data point.
The way something looks tells you how much it was loved in the making. We obsess over beauty because it signals that we take your experience seriously.
You know your child better than any algorithm. Lunara's AI is a collaborator, not an authority. It learns from you as much as it teaches you.
Half our team are parents. The rest have spent careers in pediatrics, child psychology, or family wellness. This isn't a product — it's a calling.
