I had a love for babywearing and breastfeeding and found products that catered for plus size bodies where lacking. I opened The Fluffy Mama to create a safe space for people of all shapes and sizes to shop without judgement. The product lines have been complied to best cater for plus size customers and I feel there is always massive room for growth in this area.
The reason of selling this business
My babies are growing and evolving and so am I. Our collective interests are moving away from babywearing and I would like to devote my time and effortss to a new venture. I think there is so much that can be done with The Fluffy Mama, new products to be added, new avenues to explore, I hope that someone can tackle all of these things with fresh eyes and passion.
What's involved in running this business
The stock is all kept on hand, I have devoted a bedroom in our home to use as a display room. It would be entirely up to the new owner if they wanted to continue in home consults. A knowledge of babywearing and breastfeeding is essential. I trained with The Babywearing School of Australia, although not necessary you will need to be able to offer advice on how to safely use the carriers you retail.

Seller‘s Advice
How to grow this business
I would add more plus size fashion items. Larger range of nursing bras. Breast pumps and milk catching devices. I am not great on Instagram so there is certainly room for growth there. I would also consider a new logo, perhaps something a bit more simple.
Skills to have
Yes a passion and well rounded knowledge of baby carriers and their safe use. Breastfeeding knowledge/passion is also a must if you wish to carry on that branch of the business.
