I own a small business from my home called Wallypop. I sew cloth diapers, diaper covers, baby slings and carriers, and lots of neat items for non-parents, as well, like reusable grocery bags, Sweet Sweeper floor cleaning cloths, and reusable fabric gift bags.
I started making diapers and carriers for my own little one, then for some friends, before deciding to start a business selling them. Cloth diapers are so soft, so healthy, and so much more economical than disposables, so the decision to use cloth was a no-brainer for me. Then I discovered the wonderful world of baby slings - so much more comfortable than the widely-available baby carrying contraptions, and definitely easier on the back than carrying a baby in an infant seat or even in arms. Cloth carriers keep baby close, without bulky padding between you. The carriers enabled me to tend to my baby's needs while also getting other things done - like the dishes, cleaning, or even just going for a walk. I just love sharing these products with other parents, because they truly make such a difference!
I have slowly added other items over the years. I generally just add new items that I myself use. I was using cloth grocery bags, and thought my customers might like them, for example.
This is my husband and son using one of the carriers.
