Our History
I started this business after the birth of my second child in 2001. Back then, I decided to breastfeed her 100% after my son was diagnosed with allergic rhinitis. The pediatrician informed me that it was a genetic condition and, the only way to help my daughter escape the same, was to boost her immune system. And, the best way was to breastfeed her for as long as I could.
So I figured, since I could save thousand of dollars of formula milk, why not? I was determined to breastfeed her for as long as she wanted, through teeth and all!
I am one of those mothers who never had any problem with my milk supply. The only problem I had was the proper clothes to wear during breastfeeding! I used to hide in my car or in my bedroom for each feed. I was so conscious of how others would looked at me when I breastfed. Having to wear unattractive, baggy tees didn’t help build much of my confidence either.
Nursing clothes were hard to get in those days. Those available were either too expensive or too ugly. I got tired of wearing frumpy, oversized clothes that made me look like a sack potato!
Then one day, my sister-in-law helped me sew a very pretty nursing top, with a matching baby dress for my little girl – my very first own design! I just loved the looks and coos that we got! We were instant starlets!! Soon, many mothers asked about our clothes and we got some orders.. That was just the start.
:)
Thanks to the moral support of my husband, a home-based business with kids running around in my home office was established .For the next 8 years it has been a one woman show.
Juggling motherhood and work had thought me to appreciate all the little things in life. It also taught me to be more self-discipline and tolerant towards the kids. My son is now in P6 and my daughter is in P3. Both have been my loyal fans and official photographers for years
My business philosophy is simple but true to the heart – I strive to create clothing that is not only beautiful but, practical and comfortable as well. I will make sure that they are value for money by ensuring good workmanship and quality. It is my hope that you will enjoy what I enjoy creating for you!
Going forward, our Motto remains that " You deserve the stylish best ''
Have a blessed motherhood!
Annie
