There’s only one week until Christmas, and if you’re anything like me, you’re still running around doing last-minute Christmas shopping, and have yet to wrap them all.
Our belief at Mama Qucha is that every step you take towards a sustainable future, no matter how small, adds up and counts towards the bigger picture. Here are some quick last-minute Christmas gift-wrapping ideas that are eco-friendly and won’t cost the earth.
What is it about the beach that leaves you feeling so amazing at the end of a lovely sunny beach day? That feeling of relaxation and achievement, of happiness at the memories you’ve just made, as you drift off to sleep? Mama Qucha shares the magic behind that amazing feeling.
We're happy to announce that from the end of October, we will be posting out all Australian orders in HEROPACKS, a biodegradeable home-compostable mailer bag, that when composted turns into some pretty yummy food for worms in the ground.
Hurrah!! We are super happy to announce that the Mama Qucha Nappy Backpack in turquoise has been shortlisted in the UK Mother&Baby Awards 2020 for the Best Changing Bag! This is a huge achievement and we couldn’t be more excited! There are so many amazing changing bags and other baby products that go into this competition and get independently tried and tested by real mums, that we’re over the moon that the Mama Qucha Nappy Backpack made it amongst the best!
So, what's with the fancy pants name?
Mama Qucha (pronounced Mama Kohcha) means ‘Mother Ocean’ in Quechuan, the native language of the Andes. Mama Qucha was known by the Incans as the goddess of the ocean and all water bodies, such as lakes and rivers. In coming up with a name, I was looking for something that was ocean inspired, with a beachy Spanish flair.
