New Products!

I have lots of products I want to eventually sell but I can't introduce them all at once, unfortunately. I'm releasing them slowly to gauge interest and decide on styles, best materials, pricing, etc.  All of them benefit special needs kids and parents in some way. I've made lots of things for my children over the years but stuff for SN kids is a market that isn't well covered yet, at least not by work at home moms who can provide the products at a reasonable price!

So I'll be listing each new product here. Just message me on Facebook to order!

Bandana style bib for big kids!

My bibs are one size fits all from approximately ages 5+. They are made with 4 layers of thick flannel and have multiple snap settings to fit a range of neck sizes from ~16"-23". They are not waterproof, but they are super absorbent and even my super soaker only manages to go through several a day. And at these prices, you can afford to get a few extra! They are $5 each with a flat rate shipping of $5. Fabric choices are on my Facebook Page.



If you need sized or waterproof bandana style bibs, please check out Neato Bandito on Facebook.

Next I have Suction Cozies to hide all the icky secretions from view. These fit standard 800 ml suction canisters that fit the Devilbiss portable and Invacare bedside units (6" tall, 16" circumference). These will be reversible and $12, shipping included (within the continental U.S.) Again, see the Facebook page for fabric selections.


Very soon I will have measurements and pricing up for reusable youth and small adult Swim Diapers. These will be available by summer and for a reasonable price.

Check out the new hybrid poncho!

Need a rain poncho AND a winter poncho? Is it just too expensive to buy one of each? My new hybrid poncho may be the answer!


This just looks like a regular rain poncho, right?

You can remove the waterproof liner and use it as a regular winter poncho!

And then you can use the waterproof liner by itself for those warm and rainy days when you don't want all the stuffy fleece.

These are the same size as the other ponchos (don't pay attention to how short it looks on my daughter's wheelchair.....this is a small and she wears a medium). They come with TWO hoods...one rain hood, and one regular fleece hood! This one has a solid color winter poncho but you will be able to choose printed fleece for the winter portion as well as a printed rain portion if you'd like. And they don't even have to match since the inner one won't be visible once it is snapped together.


***Please don't mind all of the boxes....our monthly supply order hasn't been put away yet!***

"How do I put this thing on!?"

Don't worry, I get this question a lot! The snaps can be a bit confusing and it can be hard to explain in words, so here is a quick video and also a picture with an explanation. Sorry for the awful camera work. Charlie's nurse and I weren't exactly in sync. LOL





In the larger sizes there are generally 3 snaps on each end, but you can get the idea here. The red circles contain the snaps that snap around the child's neck, behind their head. The snaps in the black circles are for the hood. The hood has snaps facing out, away from the child, so they can snap to the inside of the poncho. See, easy peasy!


Please note that the rain poncho hoods snap on a little differently. Because I designed them so rain will not run down and inside the poncho, the hood has to be outside of the poncho. Therefore the snaps attach on the outside of the neck area.

I hope this helps!
