Our mission is to empower women to thrive during their breastfeeding journey.

When Mamas Thrive...

So do their babies, families and communities. This is precisely why we are so focused about walking this motherhood journey with YOU, Everything we design is centered around your needs because moms need and deserve more support.

Feminism isn't about making women stronger. Women are already strong, it's about changing the way the world perceives that strength."

GEnder equality

Female-designed and female-run—we are making sure we 'walk the talk' of gender equality with our products, how we operate and with the mama community we serve. Rooted in our values and guided by the UN's Women's Empowerment Principles (WEP), female empowerment and gender equality principles are at the heart of our why we exist.

“We cannot all succeed when half of us are held back. We call upon our sisters around the world to be brave—to embrace the strength within themselves and realize their full potential.”

– Malala Yousafzai, Nobel Peace Prize winner

ReUSE & REPURPOSE

We are passionate about protecting Mama Earth. While there is still so much more we can do, we are committed to making a positive impact in global communities and on Earth. We do this through reducing the use of plastic, and the reuse of all our products.

We are also thrilled with multiple partners such as !% for the Planet and CleanHub to fund programs that reduce plastic from getting into our oceans.

To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.
