Your touch is so powerful that your baby reaches quiet sleep with it. Sleep is when the brain develops sensorial systems for life: from problem solving to social skills.
Through our line of products, The Zaky extends the power of your touch by creating welcoming surroundings for babies that provide the necessary elements to sleep and develop so they enjoy the best quality of life possible. The Zaky utilizes the power of your touch to relax their nervous system.
