Host profile - Miriam Rutherford, Designer, Founder & Managing Director, Safe T Sleep International
Each of our Look After Me Hosts has their own story. This time we feature Miriam, one of our first hosts in Auckland. As well as hosting at the Conifer Grove Oasis she developed the world's safest, baby swaddling wrap.
When we caught up with Miriam she said as a mother herself, with a nursing background, she wanted safety, comfort and peace of mind for her own children.
She founded the company 26 years ago and the Safe T Sleep Sleepwrap is the only clinically proven baby wrap, as tested independently by hospitals.
Miriam says it has even wrapped America's Cup babies!
The Safe T Sleep Sleepwrap allows natural flexible limb and hip movement for a safer, more comfortable sleep for babies newborn - two years plus. Other products include the MULTIwedge and the little Safe T Sleep HEADwedge which ensures a safe baby with a lovely shaped head.
If you are a grandmother, aunty or new Mum - you'll find Miriam's Sate T Sleep products will give you peace of mind for the new 'love' of your life. They are available at Baby City, Baby Factory, Sleepstore or on-line at safetsleep.com.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Miriam!
