Who Made My Clothes: Meet the Heart Behind Our Baby and Toddler Brand

Who Made My Clothes: Meet the Heart Behind Our Baby and Toddler Brand

When we first dreamed of launching a sustainable baby and toddler clothing brand, we knew we didn’t just want to make beautiful clothes — we wanted to make them the right way. From day one, we set out to create something thoughtful, ethical, and kind — for little ones, the planet, and the people behind the scenes.

That dream wouldn’t have become a reality without two very special people: Bindhu and Amar, the husband-and-wife team who lead the GOTS-certified, family-run manufacturing business in India that brings our Five O Six designs to life.

This is the story of how they became more than just our production partners — they became family, and a vital part of our mission for sustainable change in the fashion industry.

When we began searching for the right manufacturer, we weren’t just looking for quality — we were looking for values. We needed a partner who believed in slow fashion, ethical working conditions, and sustainability just as deeply as we did.

That’s when we found Bindhu and Amar — and from the very first conversation, something just felt right.

Their factory, is GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified, which means every step of the process — from fabric sourcing to final stitching — meets the highest global standards for organic and ethical production. But beyond the certifications, it was their warmth, integrity, and shared vision that won us over. The smiles on the faces of the workers as we were taken on tour around the factory via facetime.

Bindhu and Amar’s story is just as heartfelt as ours. Together, they’ve built a team that operates with compassion, fairness, and a deep respect for craft. Their factory feels more like a community — where every worker is treated with dignity, paid fairly, and works in safe, clean conditions.

What really moved us was how they extended that sense of family to us. They took the time to understand our brand, our mission, and even our fears as a small business trying to do things differently. They didn’t just produce our clothes — they helped shape our journey.

Through countless video calls, samples, late-night messages, and even photos of their team at work, Bindhu and Amar made us feel like we were right there with them — even from across the world.

Working with Bindhu and Amar has empowered us to stay true to our values — even when the easier (and cheaper) options tried to tempt us away.

  • Every fabric we use is GOTS-certified organic cotton, safe for delicate skin and better for the earth.

  • Our dyeing and printing processes avoid harmful chemicals and waste.

  • Our workers are paid fair wages, receive benefits, and work in environments that prioritise wellbeing.

By choosing to work with a transparent, ethical supply chain, we’re showing that it is possible to build a baby clothing brand that cares for people and planet — and still makes beautiful, durable clothing that parents love.

We often say that every piece in our collection has a story — and it’s true. Behind every romper, every tiny tee, and every stitched seam is a team of real people who care deeply about what they do.

Bindhu and Amar have become so much more than suppliers. They’ve become trusted advisors, friends, and the kind of partners every small business dreams of having. They’ve taught us patience, persistence, and the power of doing things with heart.

Together, we’re not just making clothes — we’re helping reshape what fashion can look like when ethics and empathy lead the way.

As a parent or gift-giver, you deserve to know exactly who made your baby’s clothes — and that they were made with care, love, and respect at every step.

We’re proud to say that the hands behind our garments are ones we trust deeply. And by supporting our brand, you’re also supporting Bindhu, Amar, and every member of their incredible team.

You’re choosing transparency over shortcuts. People over profit. And a better future for your children and the world they will inherit.

Our journey wouldn’t be possible without the people who believe in this mission — and that includes you.

Thank you for choosing to dress your little ones in clothes that are not only beautiful and soft, but also deeply meaningful.

With love,
Catherine
