We love Wales. We love babies. We love quality. We love gifts – well who doesn’t?

We have been blessed with two special, healthy and unique babies of our own and have lived through that fuzzy, wonderful time – a new-born baby asleep, wrapped peacefully in a blanket, giving us time (albeit limited) to enjoy reading and opening gifts and messages of congratulations and well wishes. During the new-born haze with our youngest and having just opened a gift of some receiving blankets from relatives in Canada, we started to talk about baby blankets – how different and varied they all are and how special it would be to receive something ultra-soft and Welsh. I am currently learning Welsh and have been alongside Graeme at every step of our journey to get Babi Bw up and running.

Graeme

Having spent much of my childhood in North Wales I am now living in South Wales with my wife Katherine and our two gorgeous children Lauren and Kobi. I feel a strong connection to Wales and what it represents. I am fortunate to have worked as a business advisor helping young businesses to start-up, develop and grow their own unique identities. I have always been passionate about quality products and believe that the organic cotton & bamboo that we use for our baby blankets can rival the softest.

As a proud, new daddy, even though I wanted to show off my new baby, I was conscious that I didn’t really want to carry around blankets covered in fluffy animals. Here in Wales, the idea for Babi Bw was born. Ensuring the highest quality and maintaining the integrity of a Welsh brand have been our priorities, throughout the design and manufacturing process. Giving something back to Welsh Children’s charities is a concept particularly close to our hearts as our son suffered a near fatal accident at the age of 18 months and the help and care that we as a family received was tremendous.

From the minute I came home to see my new baby brother Kobi I wanted to help mummy to look after him. I wrapped him in blankets to keep him warm and fetched whatever he needed. I also looked after my baby doll whilst mummy and daddy looked after him. My favourite blanket is “The light pink and dark pink one.” (Our Snowdonia design).

Even though I am now nearly four, I love snuggling in my blanket at home on the sofa, surrounded by mummy, daddy and Lauren. I love kisses, cuddles and squeezes and have always given them freely. My favourite blanket is “the bumpy, bumps one.” (Our Brecon design).
