When blessed nest founder Heather Anderson injured her right hand in 2002, she was told that her
career as an Interior Designer and Seamstress was over. She had to take all of the things she
knew how to do, and figure out what to do next.

She wanted a way to combine all of her experience,
from sewing to being a Nanny. Around the same time a friend had just given birth to her first
daughter. She was having trouble breastfeeding, and the nursing pillows available to her at
that time only added to her frustration. She was certain that Heather could come up with
something better. And she did.
"Truly a pillow that
is as natural &
beautiful as breastfeeding itself."
The Nesting Pillow that was inspired in response to a friend’s practical need has evolved into a truly exceptional pillow used by families all over the world. The unique shape and organic buckwheat hull filling allows it to contour to any body, providing the most support and comfort possible for both mom and baby. Highly recommended by health care providers and used in birthing classes and by Lactation Consultants, women will benefit from the Nesting Pillow throughout their pregnancy and at every stage of parenting.
All Nesting Pillows are lovingly handmade in Blessed Nest’s Brooklyn green powered
studio under strict supervision and fair labor practices. The inside pillow is covered
in 100% organic cotton canvas, filled with 100% organic buckwheat and covered with an
easily removable slipcover made of 100% organic velour on the top and 100% organic cotton
on the sides.
Comfort...
The Eco Nesting Pillow, designed exclusively for Hazelwood Children, is made of 100% organic fabrics that come in gorgeous nature-inspired prints. Truly a pillow that is as natural and beautiful as breastfeeding itself.
