About Nummies

When you have a baby you get a lot of advice. Nummies was created because of two pieces of advice I was given after my first son was born.  

Nummies is his word for breastfeeding.  It was recommended to me early on that I teach my children a word that I didn’t mind being shouted in the grocery store.

Am I ever glad I listened to that advice. 

When I became a mom, I searched for nursing bras that had function and beauty, that made me feel and look my best, but I just couldn’t find them.  Did I have to leave my love of beautiful bras behind me?

I believe that women who breastfeed their children are beautiful.  Nummies bras and panties are made to accentuate your body and lighten your spirit.  Now you don’t have to give up your sense of style simply because you are nursing. 

Each Nummies bra is named after a woman who has been instrumental in my mothering journey so far.  I want to thank these women for being such wonderful examples, teachers and friends.

When my son was six weeks old I met a friend who gave me my other piece of advice on breastfeeding.

She said, “smile at your children when you hold them, and wear a great bra…because trust me, they’re looking.”
