Bond & Love is dedicated to developing innovative products that help breastfeeding moms nourish strong families.
We are Annette Aranda and Kristin Dann, and Bond & Love is our labor of love. We met in the fall of 2004 as co-workers in San Diego, CA. We hit it off right away… and so began our story of friendship and collaboration. In 2007, Annette relocated to Portland, OR. Kristin moved there a few years later. During all this, we each got married and started our own families. In 2011, Kristin became a Certified Lactation Educator through Gini Baker’s CLE program. We both found common challenges in breastfeeding. It was these challenges and our shared desire to help other breastfeeding moms that eventually led us to form Bond & Love and develop our first product, My Droplette. We started looking at current gaps in the products and services available to breastfeeding families and imagining innovative ways to close those gaps. This process led us to focus on small quantity milk collection for our first product. While we were still working on prototypes for My Droplette, Kristin’s sister had a late pre-term birth. Kristin spent the night helping her sister pump and collect colostrum and was reaffirmed of the need for this product. Since then, we’ve completed prototyping and testing My Droplette and we’re confident that it’s a unique product that solves a real need. Contact Us:[email protected] WHAT IS MY DROPLETTE? My Droplette is a soft, form-fitting device placed between the nipple and the breast pump that captures 100% of your milk. With My Droplette, there’s absolutely no milk lost in hoses, fittings or other pump parts. My Droplette collects up to 8 ml of milk at a time, making it ideal for new moms, antenatal pumping and women experiencing low milk supply. Save every last drop for your baby’s best nourishment with My Droplette from Bond & Love. WHO’S IT FOR?My Droplette is designed specifically for women expressing small quantities of milk or colostrum. Most breast pumps lose around 5 ml per session inside hoses, fittings and other hard to reach places. This is especially frustrating when you’re dealing with small quantities. My Droplette creates a closed system that captures 100% of the milk you express. With My Droplette, new moms, women pumping before giving birth, and women with low milk supply can rest assured that they’re collecting every precious drop. Krissie Lenahan is a local wife and mother. She is a part-time high school health teacher and Career Specialist, a National Board Certified teacher, and the North County Chapter Leader for the MOB (a networking group for women who own their own businesses). She’s also the owner of Live Pure Mama as an Ambassador for Pure Haven. In the Fall of 2015, Krissie attended a teaching conference where she learned about toxins in our daily personal care products. She was shocked that Europe bans 1371 harmful chemicals from these products and the US only bans 11 and that no agency is testing or regulating personal care products in our country! She knew I had to make some major changes and she did – personally and professionally. Now, she teaches public and private workshops for families looking to be empowered with the skills to actually read product labels and make safer choices for themselves, their children and pets. She is passionate about no longer smearing her sweet son with toxic lotion, body wash or products with fragrance. Through Pure Haven, she offers 100% pure body and home cleaning products that are completely natural, non-GMO, cruelty free, gluten free, Made in America and based with organic essential oils and absolutely no synthetic dyes or fragrances. She’s moving toward all products in her home being ones that do NOT cause disease, reproductive issues, and allergies while helping other families do the same. |
