Our story
Little Lammies was born out of a passion for creativity, community, and sustainable craftsmanship.
Founded by Carrie, a Wellington-based mother of two, and Alex, her sister living in Nepal for the past decade, our business thrives on the fusion of New Zealand wool and the skillful hands of Nepali artisan felters
Our Mission
-
At Little Lammies, we believe in more than just creating toys. Our mission is to:
-
Empower Women
We collaborate with Kanchima Sherpa’s small business in Nepal, providing employment and training opportunities for a talented group of women. Together, we felt our products, with each piece designed by Alex herself.
-
Champion Natural Fibers
We exclusively work with New Zealand wool, celebrating its warmth, softness, and eco-friendliness. Our commitment to natural materials ensures that every Little Lammies creation is safe for both children and the environment.
-
Promote Fair Trade
Our small, close-knit environment fosters a fear-free, safe, and happy workspace. We prioritize ethical practices, ensuring fair wages and respectful treatment for our team.
-
Connecting Cultures
By combining New Zealand’s farming heritage with the craftsmanship of Nepali women, we create unique, handcrafted toys that tell a global story.
-
Care for Our Planet
Sustainability is at our core. We strive to minimize our environmental impact, from sourcing materials to packaging, so that future generations can enjoy the beauty of Little Lammies.
