Karen and I have been friends forever. We've experienced every phase of growing up and have triumphed all of life's milestones together. From braiding each other's hair, to crying over ex-boyfriends, to watching one another walk down the aisle and start families, we've weathered the tougher times and shared the joys of better times in each of our lives.
Shortly after my first daughter was born Karen came to lend a hand and meet my new bundle of joy. We were chatting when Noelle awoke to nurse. I cradled her with one hand and lifted my shirt with the other. As a new mom, I struggled to get a good grip of my baby while lifting my shirt at the same time. I thought, "There has to be an easier way!" I wanted to snip the strap of my shirt to open it from the top instead of pulling it up from the bottom - it was the spark that lit the flame!
Karen has forever been the creative one, while I've always had an interest in care giving and a natural gift for decision-making. We combined our strengths and set out to fill a void in the market to develop a nursing tank that would make breastfeeding as easy as possible.
After months of design, and trial and error, we finally had a prototype. In striving to achieve the perfect balance between fashion and functionality, Comfy Kangaroo was born. Our friends and family graciously tested our product, and after getting such a positive response, we decided to push forward and bring our nursing tank to the rest of the world.
Our website is accessed by moms everywhere and provides useful tips and information on motherhood. We look forward to bringing you new products and hope to expand our catalogue. We feel truly blessed to have had the opportunity to create something potentially helpful to women around the world.
We would like to extend our thanks to all of you for your support and inquiries about Comfy Kangaroo - it has been a wonderfully overwhelming time. We invite you to continue to share you own stories, experiences, comments and questions - we couldn't do this without you!
We appreciate you taking the time to learn more about us and hope to continue making your lives easier and enjoyable!
Sincerely,
Rachel & Karen Co-Founders
