Hi everyone,

I know it has been a while since I have posted an update regarding my business. My sincere apologies if I have been slow to respond to messages and emails. The truth is that life has had many challenges over the past number of months for my family and I have been completely overwhelmed at times just trying to keep up with daily life. Having a child with high support needs in addition to hearing loss has meant I have had to shift my focus away from my business in order to better support my children.

We have recently taken an opportunity to move our family to Canada (where I’m originally from) in order to live near family who are able to provide us regular support and respite. It was a very difficult decision to make, but it is what we felt was the best thing for our kids' future and for our own mental health. I now fully believe in the saying “It takes a village to raise a child.” We arrived here in Canada last week and jet lag has been extra tough this time around for all of us.

I have big plans for the future of Happy Hearing! I’ve had these ideas for a long time but have not had the capacity to implement them. I will soon have the extra time and support to be able to put things in place. This will hopefully make the ordering process more streamlined and efficient for customers all over the world. I am also working on various ways to have my products more easily accessible to the Australian market. With the support of all of my wonderful Australian customers, Happy Hearing would not exist.

I have been consumed with packing up our lives for our big life change recently. It was a very sad day when I had to say goodbye to my beloved sewing machines.. My books will be closed until further notice as I am unable to make anything without them.

I am on the hunt for new machines to set up a new studio over here in our new house in Canada, however will be a while before I’ll be fully up and running again. I need to give my kids my full focus during this big transition period to help them settle in.

Thank you everyone for supporting my business over the years. I truly love making each and every piece and it warms my heart to receive messages from customers informing me of how they have helped support their children wearing their hearing devices more safely and securely.

During this transition period of my business, I will looking forward to sharing some customer appreciation posts with some of the gorgeous photos that have been sent to me over the years with permission to share on my page. 💛

Hi everyone! I just want to thank you for the overwhelming response to my recent post about reopening my books for custom orders☺️💛🙏

Unfortunately, I have reached a point where I need to close them again until further notice so I don’t stretch beyond my capacity at this busy time of year if I haven’t already.. 😓 We have recently received notice that we have to move house at the end of January and I do not know yet when I will be able to get back up and running after that.

I’m truly sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. If you sent me a message after my last post, thank you for your patience. It takes a bit of time to keep up with my responses but please bare with me, I will get back to you to confirm and discuss your order! I will be sewing them in the order I received the initial message.

My apologies to those people who didn’t see my previous post and whom I have not been able to follow up with yet regarding your enquires prior to my announcement, I was not anticipating to fill up so quickly.

If things change, I will make another announcement.

24/11/2022

✨ANNOUNCING✨

My books are OPEN again for custom orders!!!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
THANK YOU Everyone for your patience! 🙏

I will be accepting and completing orders in the order I receive them.

I know there are a lot of people who have been patiently waiting for this announcement, so I will be putting a maximum limit of 3️⃣ items per order this time around. That way I can get through the list as quickly and fairly as possible. Especially because there are a lot of kids who have recently acquired hearing aids or cochlear implants.

All of your little ones are SO important to me and I want to help them all as best and efficiently as I can. I know first hand how important it is to have safe and secure retention accessories for their hearing devices. 🦻💛

Send me a DM if you wish to arrange a custom order 😊

**please note, I often don’t get a chance to sit down and focus on responding to messages until night time after my two busy little kids are in bed 😅 but I will get back to you as soon as I am able to! **

It’s LOUD SHIRT DAY!!!

This little cutie was so excited to get to wear a headband just like her big brother today 💞

We recently arrived home from our holiday and it has taken a bit of time to recover from jet lag with two little kids…🛬

I have a few prior commitments that I need to complete before I can open my books again for custom orders so I do not take on more than I can manage at one time. ⚖️

I would like to thank everyone for their continued patience and understanding 🙏

Happy 4th Birthday (yesterday) to the inspiration for - my beautiful son Harper 🥰 Love you so much! X

📣 ANNOUNCEMENT 📣

I am going on Holiday with my family in just over 5 weeks time and so I will be cutting off custom orders at the end of this weekend (7th August) and I will not be starting again until mid October. Apologies in advance for any inconvenience.

My current turnaround time is 3+ weeks and I want to make sure that I have enough time to complete and ship everyone’s order before I go, including any new orders receive before the cut off date.

I have a small selection of pre-made options available for purchase if you miss the cut off date to place a custom order.

Thank you for your patience to everyone who is currently waiting for their custom orders 🙏 I am working as best as I can get them out to you asap!

I will announce upon my return when I am accepting custom orders again. My goal is to keep a shorter turnaround time with a fresh start!

While on holiday, I plan to pay some much needed attention to posting on my social media accounts to share all of the beautiful photos I receive and also provide some inspiration for future orders 😉

Thank you again for all of your support! X

✨Pm for custom orders before Sunday night, August 7th ✨

The cutest little Koala 🐨

I made this custom koala bear cap a few months ago by request. Always happy to help bring your ideas to life ☺️

Contrast fabric panels 😍

I love the look of these, they are so unique!

The beauty of custom made accessories is that you can choose any combination you want to create something special for your child 🥰

03/07/2022

I’ve had a lot of people asking about items for bone conduction hearing aids recently, so I thought I would share this gorgeous pic 😉

I can make openings on pilot caps for bone conduction hearing aids wherever is best suited for your child. In front of the ear, behind the ear or even on the forehead for the car seat for younger babies. Multiple openings are fine. It’s helpful to have a photo of your child wearing the device(s) so I can get the placement right.

2 in 1 Sun Cap! 🐋

These hats are a great option for daycare for helping to secure your child’s hearing devices while offering sun protection…..if we ever see the sun again 💦

Hope everyone is staying safe 💙

26/02/2022

I hope everyone is making the most of the last few days of summer! Rain or shine! ☔️☀️

I wish I could say that I was good at everything, but social media is just one of those things that always seems to fall through the cracks when I’m so busy!

I have so many photos of your gorgeous bubbas that have been sent to me over the 2+ years since I started this business (which I have been given permission to post) and I plan to make a better effort going forward to stay on top of it and share more because they always make my day to see kids wearing the items I’ve made for them 🥰

Thank you all for your continued support of my little business I really do love making each and every piece 🪡🧵💛

Introducing the 2 in 1 sun cap! ☀️

I stayed up extra late over the weekend designing this pilot cap that has not only a brim at the front, but a removable flap at the back for extra sun protection! It also has a partial cotton mesh side panel to help keep it cool underneath the flap, but still helps secure the hearing devices. Once the back flap is removed, it still offers some sun protection at the front and looks pretty darn cute! The brim can also be worn flipped up when indoors.

As always, you can completely customize your cap! I have tons of fabrics and mesh options to choose from. You can choose contrast colours and prints for various sections to make it even more unique!

**full disclosure this is my daughter testing out my sample, she does not have hearing loss but it is now going to be her new summer hat because she can’t rip it off like she does other hats! 😁

Also a reminder, I am donating 20% of sales from all orders placed from now until Loud Shirt Day to the fundraiser for 2021!

22/09/2021

💥It’s that time of year again!!!💥
I’m proud to announce that Happy Hearing Australia will be fundraising for Loud Shirt Day] 22 Oct 2021! ☀️

I will be donating 20% of sales for all orders placed from today until Loud Shirt Day on 22nd October!!

I have tons of “LOUD” prints to choose from if you want a loud pilot cap or headband for your child to wear this month and especially on Loud Shirt Day! I can also make matching headbands for family members and friends participating!

**All orders** are included in the fundraiser, so if you are after something more subtle that’s ok too! There’s a huge range of fabrics to choose from!

Help raise funds for Loud Shirt Day] to help give deaf and hard of hearing children access to support and the gift of sound and speech! Funds go to non profit organizations across Australia who rely on donations to ensure no child goes without the support they need to reach their goals.

This fundraiser holds a special place in my heart as my son was born profoundly deaf and now wears cochlear implants. Our family would not be where we are on this journey without the wonderful support from .

This May Gibbs print is just so sweet! 💛

Tie up pilot caps are always an option if you don’t want the snap closure, that’s the beauty of custom made!

Full disclosure - this is a photo of my daughter, she does not have hearing loss. I just love bonnets on babies so I made it a couple months ago for her to wear on cooler days 😍

This Avengers print is so cool!
You can choose which super hero is featured on the front! 🤩
PM for custom order requests!

These two crack me up! We tried to get a nice Mother’s Day photo but we were unsuccessful haha! 😂 Never a dull moment with them and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

I hope all of you amazing strong mumma’s out there had a wonderful Mother’s Day! 💖

I’m a little late posting this because let’s be honest...sometimes we get so busy as mum’s we don’t always get to do all that we want to do! (At least it’s still Mother’s Day in Canada where I’m from)
