Petit Hippo: Accessories for babies and young children in Châtellerault

Do you like little hippos, because it's so cute in children's stories? Well Carine Héligoin too! That's why his brand of accessories for babies and children is called "Petit Hippo"!

Carine is a seamstress based in Châtellerault. This mother of 3 children studied literature, specializing in plastic arts. Her mother and grandmother love knitting and crocheting, but Carine's passion is sewing because the result is faster and she likes to work with fabrics.

Self-taught, she started her own business in February 2012 after the birth of her first daughter. She absolutely does not regret this adventure! At the beginning, she installs her sewing machine (the one she had had when she was 18) in the living room. Now she has a dedicated room in her house where she can better store the original, colorful and good quality fabrics she uses.

Carine chooses the "child" universe because it is very colorful and she can express her inventiveness. Her creations are intended for babies and young children (end of kindergarten). They are made of cotton and sponge.

At Petit Hippo you can find: bibs with or without sleeves, sleeping bags, pacifier clips, blankets, tooth mice, small satchels, gripping balls, birth caps, notebook covers de santé...
