 Hello, friends! I’m Nell, the voice behind Whole Parenting Family and artisan of Whole Parenting Goods. My natural parenting blog began just after I had my first of our now family of three little ones. After blah-blahing to my dearly sainted mother (herself a mother of five) all about what I was learning on my journey as a mother, she suggested “why don’t you start one of those blog things?”

And years later, I’m still at it: sharing parenting experiences, spotlighting our local natural birthing and parenting community in the Twin Cities in Minnesota, and hearing back from our community of mamas and papas about their journeys too.

My husband and I are both attorneys but I’m on hiatus indefinitely. Our eldest son, 4 years old, has inherited a tendency for negotiation that’s tricky. Our two year old daughter certainly understands how to press the question But why? And our four month old son can cleverly smile and be evasive, all at once. We love our garden, compost heap, cloth diapers, and living in my ancestral family home.

My artisan textile and fiber work is a joyful sidecar to mothering at home. I retail and sell on etsy Bandit Bibs for dribblers // teethers // eaters, Contour Cloths for burping // spitting // catchingtiall, Plush Blankets with a thick layer of cotton batting between designer modern cottons and plush minky, as well as pure organic blankets and throws, with a handful of growing knits in the thick of it as well.  Having a little girl inspires me to have a line of Twirly Girl Skirts too!  My favorite delight for mamas and papas is my Organic Flaxseed Heat // Cool Packs. Because when your neck is aching or your low back is fatigued, a little flaxseed will soothe you every time.

  11. These are so adorable! They would be great as my little one is just reaching the age of endless drool.

  12. I love these baby things and would love to win for our newest granddaughter’s spitting up on this Nana every chance she has!

  19. How adorable. where was those contour burp rags when I had my babies? I use those skinny ones that barely catch anything. Yours looks nice and big. not sure if I will have anymore babies in this house. my youngest is 2 and I am 42. I leave it in God’s hands to heal my body and my worries from my last delivery of an emergency C section turned into a nasty hematoma. I have apprehensions of delivery another. but I will definitely keep these things in mind

  22. A baby is on the way for a good friend of mine… She would greatly appreciate these items… Thanks for the chance

  23. LOVE!! Have a new niece or nephew coming in March would be perfect to add to the shower gift 🙂

  24. My babes are all beyond the burping stage, but my sister-in-law has a little one and one on the way…how fun it would be to share it with her. Thanks for the chance.
