Career She has published webcomics in Polish on her blog Kącik Kiciputka since 2012 and in English at Kittypat Daily since 2016, initially using the pseudonyms "Kiciputek" and "Kittypat". Her debut in print was the 2014 comic book Tequila, written by Łukasz Śmigiel, notable for being one of the first successfully crowdfunded Polish comics. In the same year, the first issue of the Rag & Bones comic was published, written by Dominik Szcześniak. She has illustrated books by Katarzyna Berenika Miszczuk and Marta Kisiel-Małecka. She has also illustrated a My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic tie-in book.

She debuted as a prose writer with the children's book Maja z Księżyca which she also illustrated, and which was nominated to the City of Warsaw Literary Award. Since 2017, she has been publishing English-language comics at The Nib. Her comics often consist of feminist political satire.

Since 2019, she worked with Macmillan Publishers illustrating the Re:Constitutions graphic novel written by Beka Feathers. According to Publishers Weekly, "this educational comics guidebook to constitutions takes on a commendable international scope", and "Helped along by Babis’s charming if somewhat overly smiley character drawings, the team goes beyond the basics to tackle more substantial examples (such as how Rwanda’s 2003 constitution required 30% of government decision-making bodies to comprise women) and urgent particulars (“the constitution is only as strong as the people who use it”)."

Politics In 2015, she joined the newly founded left-wing political party Razem. She ran in the 2015 Polish parliamentary election on Razem's Lublin candidate list. She received 631 votes. In May 2016, she was elected to Razem's National Council.

She had left the party by 2023.

Music On 26th June of 2026 she posted her debut single titled "love witch" which she created in collaboration with compositor and music producer Radek Baranowski. She also created a music video for that song, featuring herself and Dominik Bos.
