Our Story

The Heart Behind Nyota Yangu

At Nyota Yangu, we believe some of life’s most meaningful moments begin quietly, a child, a few colours, and a world only they can see.

Our story was inspired by a little girl with a bright imagination, lovingly called “our star.”

With every gentle scribble, soft giggle, and dreamy pause, she reminded us of something precious:

childhood is a universe of curiosity, creativity, and magic. If we slow down long enough to notice.

Her spark became our calling.

Nyota Yangu, which means “My Star” in Swahili, was created to celebrate those tender moments and to support families in nurturing creativity, bonding, and emotional connection. We exist to help parents see the world through their little one’s eyes, full of wonder, possibility, and gentle joy.

Here, we believe creativity isn’t just fun.

It’s a bridge.

A bridge to bonding.
A bridge to emotional expression.
A bridge to feeling seen, heard, and deeply loved.

And so, we set out to build something purposeful.

A space where children can explore freely and where parents can pause and be present.

At Nyota Yangu, every digital artwork and colouring page is designed with intention:

✔ soft, calming visuals
✔ simple, joyful creativity
✔ moments that strengthen connection

Our products are invitations to slow down, to create together, to build memories that last long after childhood.

Because to us, creativity is more than play.

It is language.
It is healing.
It is belonging.

And we are honoured to walk beside your family even in the smallest, sweetest part of the journey.
