Taking care of our children is a top priority for busy parents and grandparents. I'm here to help you do that with my ponchos that provide a convenient alternative to winter coats for kids in car seats and wheelchairs.

 In 2015, my business flourished locally and online when, after traveling with my own granddaughter riding in her car seat without a winter coat, I began selling children's car seat ponchos. 

As a grandparent myself, I appreciate the convenience of ponchos with two way zippers and hand slits. In addition to ponchos with hoods, I also offer ponchos without hoods and ponchos with detachable hoods. I have added a listing to my shop for big kids ponchos for older or taller kids who still want to be cozy and warm and wrapped in love!

 In 2018, I expanded my business with ponchos for children and adults in wheelchairs. My wheelchair ponchos (available in regular or luxury fleece) make travel easier for people who have trouble getting in and out of a winter coat. This style poncho will work well for older children and adults in general. 

I readily admit that it is God who blessed me with my talent for working with patterns and fabrics, and I thank Him daily for the opportunity that He's given me to use my gifts in building this business while helping people care for those they love.

All of my children's items comply with CPSC regulations. All of my items are made in my smoke free, pet free home studio.
Zip on a poncho instead of a coat!

After looking at several shops for car seat ponchos I found this one and I am so glad I did! Elaine is wonderful to work with and very quick at responding to messages/questions. I ordered these for my two kiddos and they were made and shipped out super fast and not only are they cute and warm, but extremely well made! All the features were well thought out and I am glad I got the detachable hood too! My kiddos love them and so do I, Thank you! ❤️
It's so much softer than I imagined! Normally that kind of fleece isn't as soft. The functionality of it is wonderful and fits my daughter so well. Took her a bit to get used to it cause she's never had one so nice before. My daughter is 2 1/2 and the size of a 5 year old. The size 6 fits and gives her room to grow!(P.S: Please ignore her wearing my boots in the picture!
This works so perfectly with my husband's wheelchair, there is no comparison to the struggle of an ordinary coat. I got the extra layer of thickness, and have NO WORRIES about taking him out on colder days. Beautifully made, perfectly engineered, a huge win in my book!
Elaine, it was an absolute pleasure working with you. You communicated with me right away and sewed my daughter’s custom poncho the very next day. The poncho arrived shortly thereafter via Priority Mail. It is thoughtfully designed and exquisitely constructed. I appreciated all the options you offered such as omitting the hood and added an extra warm layer. The arm slits and arm snaps are genius. Thank you so much for this treasure. I very much look forward to working together in the future!
Elaine was great! She had the poncho made early and picked a great internal color to match. It fits my daughter extremely well!
Very well made, so soft and warm. There was a mix-up with shipping and my poncho got swapped with another on. She immediately said she would refund me and asked if I would like her to make and send me a new one since the other one was lost in December 2020 shipping limbo. It turned out that she was out of the fabric my son wanted, and she ended up going to the store to get more and then making and shipping me a new one in time for Christmas--whew! Great communication, and went to every effort to correct her error. Thank you.
I am so thrilled with this purchase. It’s warm, SAFE, well made, and the shipping speed was well beyond expectations.
Beautifully made....exactly what I was looking for!!!
