Child-care startup Maasi raises Rs 6 Cr in pre-seed round

Child-care startup Maasi has raised Rs 6 crore in a pre-seed funding round led by Better Capital, with participation from Antler India. Angel investors in the round include Rapido founder Rishikesh SR, Shadowfax founder Vaibhav Khandelwal, Sumit Khandelwal, Siddhant Goyal and Multiply Ventures’ Sanjay Ramakrishnan.

The proceeds will be used to scale caregiver recruitment and training, build technology platforms and expand the team in Bengaluru, Maasi said in a press release.

Founded last year by Aashu Manchali, Gargi Pandey and Reshov Roy, Maasi trains, pays and supports caregivers to provide families in Bengaluru with trusted, accountable childcare at home.

The startup said its public launch on October 20 generated a waitlist of more than 4,000 parents within five days. It has served over 1,200 parents through a network of more than 500 caregivers and is growing 20% week on week.

Maasi offers on-demand nannies starting at Rs 199 per hour and monthly subscriptions starting at Rs 5,999. All caregivers undergo verification and training before meeting families through a free programme led by preschool directors, nurses and former airline cabin crew trainers.

Its latest offering, Maasi Governess, is an English-speaking nanny service focused on screen-free engagement and childcare.
