Women who have tried the product have raved about it with one happy customer branding it 'a lifesaver.'
As she was researching and planning her brand, Kellie was experiencing her own personal badly after experiencing five consecutive miscarriages in four years, before she fell pregnant with daughter Lola.
Kellie says that this battle with infertility led her to want to help other women and after purchasing a second-hand sewing machine from the lounge room of her Central Coast home, she taught herself to sew.
