I just wanted to introduce myself as I don't think I've ever properly done so and for those who don't know me and have no idea who I am or why I love doing what I do.
I'm Helen, owner of Baby Casts & Prints.
These 2 beauties are the reason behind how I started my business.
In 2010 after I married the love of my life Chris, we got pregnant but unfortunately suffered an ectopic pregnancy resulting in emergency surgery and removal of my right fallopian tube. For the next 3 years we struggled, saw the doctor a few times, had numerous tests all showing ok and the doc said to just relax and have some faith. Soon after we started IVF, failed first cycle with no frozen embryos. Second cycle resulted in our beautiful Sofia in April 2015.
I found some gorgeous castings online and the creative side inside of me said to buy a kit and try it. I did. It didn't go well at all. I continued to try and we finally had some successful casts π. It then became a hobby doing casts for my friends baby's and it went on from there word of mouth really. Fast forward to very early 2020 pre covid we had our 6th and final IVF round resulting in out little Anya who has turned our World completely upside down. Sofia was an angel π, Anya is a cheeky monkey π. Wouldn't have it any other way. Now 8 years on I've learnt so much and love creating such precious timeless memories of baby's hands and feet, adult hand castings, family castings, adult life castings including pregnany/belly bump castings and a few bottoms for some fun.
I absolutely love what I do and know how precious life is, no matter what age.
