We are so glad your are here! We are a very outdoor oriented family and we were not going to let having a new baby and the sun stop us. But we knew we needed to protect his skin. Our family tries our best to live non-toxic so putting sunscreen all over our kid’s bodies was not the answer and also what a hassle! This swimwear line has been a dream of ours for over 3 years now. When our first boy was born we were searching for swimwear that would cover his fragile newborn skin from the sun when we would be on the beach, boat, or just simply hanging outside.
We had found some we liked but they didn’t have everything. We still needed to shade his body and that meant someone (my husband or I) staying back where it was shaded while everyone else was out in the water. His hands and feet would have been exposed to the direct sun if we hadn’t. That’s when we had the idea to add hand and foot flaps so that when you want to be social with everyone else, while still caring for you sweet baby you can cover them head to toe without worrying about them having skin exposed to the sun. Yes, I know sun is so great for us being that we try to live a more natural lifestyle but we need to protect those little babies skin.
The material we chose is lightweight and breathable, all while naturally blocking the sun with a tightly woven material. There are no dyes or chemicals in our suits. They are OEKO-TEX® certified.
