Mum starts a business out of frustration
Written by Nikki Holley   
Thursday, 09 August 2007
Nikki Holley of Ashurst Wood, mother of three year old twins Xavier and Zach has started a
business out of the frustration of not being able to find the right products for Xavier, who
has Cerebral Palsy.
The business was started in July 2007 after many failed attempts at sourcing suitable heavy-
duty dribble bandanas and feeding bibs for Xavier.  Most of the bandanas on the market are
for children who are teething and will soak through very quickly, Xavier needed something
more substantial to protect both his chest and his clothes from the constant damp.
 
“I got fed up changing the bandanas up to 6 times a day and being charged a fortune for a
 
feeding bib for his age group.... so I started to make them.  Other parents of special needs
children asked where I got them, wanted them, and here I am, making bandanas and
feeding bibs for children and adults. My fabric designs do change frequently on purpose
to allow limited numbers: this makes the dribble bandana or feeding bib as original as I
can make it.  My son likes the fact that other children don't have the same bandanas
at school.”
