GAIA Natural Baby was launched in 2002.

 

My little boy Joshua was born with very sensitive skin and developed eczema when he was just 8 weeks old.

 

I tried numerous skin care products and most of them just made his eczema worse and I couldn't use them at all.

 

At the time my family lived on a certified organic produce farm (which was sold in 2006) and we lead a natural lifestyle so when I was told that cortisone was my only option I set about sourcing a safer and natural way to care for his skin so I consulted my herbal books and started to research which herbs and oils would benefit Josh's skin.

 

I also was also advised by many health care professionals of what ingredients to avoid as they are well known to irritate sensitive and irritated skin.  I was astounded to find these ingredients in majority of the baby skin care products on the market.

 

I did some skin care blending courses and studied aromatherapy and I began boiling my own herbal infusions on the stove and added them to Josh's bath and made up my own potions for his skin.

 

My husband thought I had gone completely mad! But with some persistence finally we found a way to cleanse, soften and care for his skin without causing further irritation to his eczema.

It amazes me that someone always knows someone who has a child with eczema or has one themselves and after hearing the same story over and over again "I can't find products that don't irritate, itch or dry my baby's skin" so this lead me to developed a commercial range of products, specifically targeted to be moisturising and free from those ingredients that are known to irritate sensitive skin, making them eczema friendly.

The feedback we receive is just sensational, not only from parents thankful to have found GAIA but from the many midwives and health care professionals who also recommend our products.

It is our mission is to provide everyone with natural and organic products at an affordable price. We want to make purchasing our products easy for you  and they are available through a wide variety of channels.  GAIA Natural Baby is the most widely distributed natural and organic baby skin care ranges in Australia and the trend is continuing in other parts of the world. 

 

Following the success of GAIA Natural Baby and the demand for other products, GAIA Made for Men is the first extension to our brand with other products in development.
