Meet Lynette Damir, Founder of SwaddleDesigns
Lynette was inspired to create stylish and functional products to help parents care for their new babies. As a registered nurse and mother of two, she understood the importance of swaddling newborns. Lynette visited families with new babies and observed they struggled with swaddling for two reasons: 1) the blanket they were using was too small and 2) they could not remember how to make a good secure swaddle. Lynette used her nursing background and her design education from the Art Institute of Seattle to develop the Ultimate Receiving Blanket with swaddling instructions sewn to the blanket (patent pending). Lynette designs SwaddleDesigns' product line, SwaddleDesigns' exclusive prints and she selects every component based on its color, texture, durability and quality. Today, Lynette offers new parents not only an award winning Swaddling Blanket but also fashion forward, eco-friendly baby accessories, such as Baby Lovie® ,Baby Burpies™, Bibs and Stroller Blankets. SwaddleDesigns products and collections are fun to mix and match with over 90 prints and colors.
