About Us

Hi, I am Jessica. I  am a middle school teacher, wife, a mom to my son, Calum, and the owner of The Purple Koala. 

I started The Purple Koala out of our love for bamboo clothing, matching pjs, and customized items. I wanted to be able to share a wider variety of quality items especially being a boy mom!

Our name- The Purple Koala has such a special meaning! My son, Calum was born at 33 weeks. 



He was super long, and skinny! (Bamboo sleepers fit him best!) He was a healthy preemie and luckily was one who just had to stay and grow a little bit! 

Calum had a 20 day NICU stay. The NICU had a wonderful camera system so our family and I could watch him even if I was not there physically with him. His password was Purple Koala.
 Can y'all imagine how many times I typed in Purple Koala to see my baby? My family even sent him a stuffed Purple Koala. It is such a beautiful symbol and memory for me of strength! 

Our business too is small, but mighty! Every order is appreciated and is completed with full care and dedication! 

Thank you for trusting our small brand, The Purple Koala!
