Today, Mālama continues to grow gently, guided by the families it supports and the bonds it helps weave.

THE NATURE
Nature grounds me and lifts me up all at once.
It is breath, movement, silence, and truth.
It is within her that I find the impulse to create — freely, simply, intensely.
Each piece signed Mālama carries her imprint: an ode to the earth, to life, to the bond that unites us.
It was in a small 3½ apartment, back in 2018, that the Mālama journey quietly took root...
When my first daughter was born, I set out on a mission: to find the perfect baby carrier. I wanted a daily companion — simple, comfortable, and beautiful. But nothing on the market truly met my expectations. So one day, driven by instinct and love, I decided to create it myself.
Between diaper changes and exams, nursing sessions and university deadlines, I turned our living room into a sewing studio. The floor was scattered with fabric, sketches, pins, and schoolbooks. My sewing machine hummed during nap time. I stitched, unstitched, started over. Again and again.
Three years. Three years of research, trial and error, doubts — but above all, determination. Three years to bring to life the baby carrier that would embody the mission I had set for myself: to create a product that is functional, safe, and meaningful.
This carrier is so much more than an object — it’s an extension of the parent-child bond. It wraps babies in warmth and security, while giving parents a sense of freedom. In our home, it quickly became essential — a true everyday companion.
This belief, born from experience and heart, is what pushed me to share it with other families. After four pregnancies, several moves, and more obstacles than I can count, the very first Mālama baby carriers were launched in April 2021.
Since then, the journey has continued to grow — lifted by your trust, your stories, and your support. Thanks to you, Mālama keeps shining. Every order we prepare is filled with gratitude.
And if today our creations are with you in your moments of tenderness, closeness, and freedom, then every step of this path was more than worth it.
