Portier Baby Carrier
We adore the range of Portier Baby Carriers, because being a first-time mother doesn't mean sacrificing style and personal flair. Lia, the founder of Porta, devoted over two years to crafting the Portier Limitless Baby Carrier after grappling with maintaining her identity as a first-time mother, Struggling to find a carrier that matched her personal style, Lia set out on the journey to give parents the confidence to style parenthood their way. From color palette to print, fabric to fit, Portier offers a diverse array of baby carriers, ensuring that every new mama can discover the perfect style. During those moments when leaving the house feels daunting, the Limitless Carrier provides mothers with the freedom to embrace their new lifestyle without constraints.
Village for Mama Cookbook
The most valuable gesture for a new mother is to lighten her load, which is already overflowing. In the early days of sleep deprivation, it's challenging to even consider, let alone prioritise nourishing meals. Cold coffee and leftover toast become the universal sustenance for mums. When you're not eating well, you don't feel well, which can make motherhood even more daunting. That's why we wholeheartedly recommend the Village For Mama Cookbook. Leila Amour, the founder of Village for Mama, discovered during the initial weeks of her own journey as a first-time mother that nourishing meals were instrumental in enhancing her recovery from childbirth, supporting breastfeeding, bolstering maternal well-being, and nurturing mental health. Leila wrote a cookbook comprises 30 recipe gift cards, each accompanied by a pre-written letter kindly emphasizing the significance of the postpartum period and the vital role loved ones play in shaping a new mother's experience. Having the cookbook on hand makes keeping up with healthy nourishing meals easier for any new mama.
