Here I am with the 4 rascals – bathtime is always a favorite time, thanks to Kneepal – and Babypal was a lifesaver!
Hi, I’m Sheldene du Plessis, CEO & Founder of Hudu Health — a proud mother of four, passionate problem-solver, and advocate for practical, family-friendly design.
Like many parents, I’ve faced the daily juggle of raising kids while managing a busy household. Along the way, I discovered that sometimes the simplest tools — if made well — can make the biggest difference.
That’s exactly how Kneepal and Babypal were born.
When I couldn’t find what I needed to make bath time or diaper changes easier and more comfortable, I created it myself. What began as a personal project quickly grew into something much bigger. Today, Kneepal has reached thousands of happy homes in over 17 countries — helping parents, gardeners, caregivers, and professionals take the pressure off their knees with a product that’s built to last.
Babypal followed soon after — designed with real parenting pain points in mind. With four little ones of my own, I wanted a changing pad that made eye contact easier, supported babies with reflux, and kept changing time clean and calm. Babypal has since transformed diaper changes for families everywhere, turning a messy chore into a bonding ritual.
