Who We Are:

I started Gypsy Mama in May of 2004 after I received a gift of gauze wraps.  I liked them so much that with the help The Mamatoto Project (who had gifted me the wraps), I began selling them.  What began as a tiny company is now a small company, continuing to grow with the support of people like you.  We not only added several products since opening our store, but added several retailers as well. 

I'm Kristi, a single mother to Morgaine, Orion, and Isaac. This business was born out of a desire to promote attachment parenting in all its aspects. Babywearing is the keystone of my own parenting; it has helped me evolve into the mother I've become, and I want to help other families find the joy babywearing can bring to their lives! In fact, I so enjoy carrying my children that I have never owned a stroller. 

Gypsy Mama was made possible partly through a small business loan from The Mamatoto Project, an organization that helps families by giving away free carriers to the needy as well as through small-business loans to help fund businesses like this one. Please consider making a donation to The Mamatoto Project so they can help even more families!

Working at home gives me the flexibility to practice full-time attachment parenting while supporting my children financially. In this way, I am able to homeschool my children, practice extended breastfeeding and gentle discipline, and be present in their daily lives. I feel fortunate to have the support of my family and also my customers - without that support I couldn't do what I'm doing.  So, thank you!
