OUR MISSION

At Hip Dysplasia Clothing Australia @hipclothingau we believe all children should feel comfortable and included. We believe in creating on-trend, quality clothing options that parents enjoy dressing their children in, while they undergo brace or cast treatments. We aim to raise awareness & provide education around hip dysplasia diagnosis & treatment . We keep our mission in mind in everything that we do.

.

To understand why we pursue this mission, here is a little part of our journey. We once were a mainstream brand called Keiki Folk. As a new mum I struggled to find quality breathable clothing in generous sizing for my children, so I made it! Turns out, I wasn’t the only one wanting specialised inclusive clothing.

 

In May 2020 I began to explore this passion on a deeper level, after the diagnosis of a friends child with hip dysplasia. They were desperate for brace friendly inclusive clothing that made them excited to dress their baby. There was little to no choice for beautiful neutral & minimalist clothing like in the mainstream market.

 In March 2022 we rebranded to Hip Dysplasia Clothing Australia @hipclothingau, providing specialised clothing for hip dysplasia children. I look forward to connecting with strong, inspiring mums and supporting families through their hip dysplasia journey. 

 

RAISING AWARENESS & EDUCATION 

We believe while parenting, community is everything. The support of fellow parent to bounce questions, problems and celebrate with is vital to family happiness.  Let's face it, parenting is HARD! Adding a diagnosis greatly increases stress, anxiety and loneliness.

@hipclothingau we provide a place for community! A shared space for families going through a DDH. You can find support in our private Facebook group, our Facebook & Instagram pages. 

We are also hugely passionate about giving back. Throughout the year we host events & collect funds through online sales. We aim to raise funds contributing to families struggling with medical bills as well as the research around DDH. 

Your donations support the work of The Little Roo Foundation. Helping families with the costs of DDH treatment. We also contribute regularly to Healthy Hips Australia. Their work includes Peer Support, Awareness campaigns, Education resources, advocacy & research support. Click here to find out more.
