Our story
After 15 years in the design industry, our founder moved beyond the screen to build something tangible. Meli and Mom is where professional design meets everyday life — curating premium essentials for every generation, from toddlers to grandparents. We don't just sell products; we design experiences. Our school kits solve a real problem: the morning panic, the wasted money on random stationery, the forgotten essentials. One kit. Everything inside. Simple. Smart. Complete.
Why we started
Meli and Mom began the way most good things for children do — at home, with a parent trying to make mornings less chaotic. The name says it plainly: it's about Meli, a child, and Mom, the person who notices every small thing a child needs to feel ready for the day.
After fifteen years in the design industry — shaping products, brands and experiences for a living — our founder kept running into the same frustration as a parent: school stationery was bought piecemeal, half of it went missing within weeks, and the “cheap” option always cost more in the end. So she did what designers do. She started over from the problem.
The result is a kit philosophy instead of a shopping list. Every Meli and Mom kit is curated, not assembled — each item chosen for quality, safety and how it actually holds up across a full school year. One box. Everything inside. Nothing random, nothing missing.
School kits are only the beginning. Our vision reaches across every generation — from a toddler's first crayons to thoughtful everyday essentials for grandparents — all held to the same standard: premium quality, honest value, beautifully done.
Meet the founder
A creative leader in the IT industry and a Google-certified UX designer, Raja has spent his career turning ideas into meaningful brands — working as a creative lead, brand strategist, trainer, and mentor, and learning first-hand how good design can shape both businesses and lives.
Along the way he has trained and mentored more than 150 students across Tamil Nadu — through colleges, community programs and organisations such as the Agaram Foundation. Guiding students, homemakers and career changers, he saw again and again how creativity builds confidence, opens opportunities and changes futures.
That experience sparked a simple belief: creativity isn't just a skill — it's a foundation for growth. Meli and Mom is that belief made real: more than a stationery and educational brand, it's the product of years of design thinking and mentorship, created to help families nurture creativity in their children.
Every child deserves the chance to learn, imagine, create and grow with confidence — and Meli and Mom exists to help parents give their little ones the best possible start, one creative moment at a time.
After 15 years in the design industry, our founder moved beyond the screen to build something tangible. Every Meli and Mom kit is designed with the same intention — beautiful, functional and built to last.
We know parents waste money buying random stationery piece by piece. Our kits bring everything together at a price that actually makes sense — premium quality without the premium markup.
From toddlers to grandparents, Meli and Mom curates premium essentials for everyday life. School kits are just the beginning of a much larger vision for family essentials done right.
Kit questions, bulk orders, school partnerships or just a hello — we answer every message. Usually within a few hours.
