Laia from Topponcinos (top-on-chi-no) makes soft, Montessori mat-like pillows for newborn babies. They provide comfort, support and consistency throughout the first few delicate months of a baby’s life.
Laia got given one of these pillows when she had her daughter and really loved it. She wanted to gift them to some of her other pregnant friends but couldn’t find any for sale in New Zealand, so she learnt how to make them!
So… Why should you get a Topponcino?
– Topponcinos become a consistent comfort in your baby’s life: a physical, emotional and psychological place of coziness for your newborn baby
– Provides essential head, neck and body support while being held
– Smells like Mama and Papa so your baby will feel safe in any environment
– Helps transitions such as being passed from person-to-person, or when being laid down to sleep

Motherland was created by Alexis & Sinead with the natural mother in mind. Between the two of them, they have 3 beautiful babies and are friends that have become like family. Two hospital births and one home birth later, they finally found their calling and love for all things natural.
Motherland is for the mother who wants to know what she was using on herself and baby, the mother who wants products to support her during pregnancy, labour, delivery, postpartum and beyond, and the woman who doesn’t want to be forgotten during her transition into a “Mother”.
Their products include Booby Balm, Perennial Spray, Labour & Birth Massage Oil, Kawakawa Balm, with a whole lot more on the way.
Wendy is the owner and mastermind of Mammas Milk Bar. She is a mum of 2 wee babes and started Mammas Milk Bar to help support women during their pregnancy and breastfeeding journeys based on her own experience.
During and after her pregnancy, she struggled with two things:
BOOSTING SUPPLY: She had low milk supply and didn’t want to rely on sweet treats or cookies(!), so she created healthy versatile blends using the best locally sourced ingredients
PROTEIN NEEDS: During pregnancy and breastfeeding, protein needs can increase between 70 to 100+ grams per day. Usually, a mama can meet all her protein needs by having a varied diet. But some women struggle because of morning sickness and need an additional boost. This is where clean protein powders can help.
So now Wendy brings these to every mamma out there, from a place of love and Aroha, from one mama to another. Authentic and honest clean protein, and healthy lactation booster blends, made from highest quality ingredients like dutch cocoa, real vanilla bean, organic coconut sugar, etc.
As a mum, it is so important to know what’s going into your body for your baby. Mammas Milk Bar uses 100% natural ingredients like real vanilla bean, dutch cocoa and organic coconut sugar.
