How did you get started with Makemake Organics?
Makemake Organics was born out of our own need for organic products, when our baby girl was born. Most brands were self proclaimed organic and everything else was loaded with synthetics, heavily processed and just not what we wanted for our baby. With our heritage is rooted in textiles, we started on a quest to craft products with the softest, most trustworthy fabrics available for our home.
We found that like us, many other parents wanted their children to grow up in a carefree, non toxic, safer world and thus we began crafting products from sustainable sources to ensure that only natural materials touch your baby’s delicate skin and stays safe forever.
