For new moms who are juggling feedings, naps, and life on the go, a bracelet or necklace that’s comfy and hypoallergenic becomes an everyday treasure.

  • Hypoallergenic metals (stainless steel or sterling) to prevent irritation
  • Stretch or easy closures so the piece is fuss-free

  • Small, sentimental charms or authentic glass beads that carry meaning
