Hi, I’m Annelise—Mum, Maker, and Chief “We’ll Figure It Out” Officer

If you’ve ever reheated the same cup of coffee three times before noon, welcome—you’re my people.

I’m Annelise, the mum behind Little T’s Boutique and the not-so-stay-at-home mum of Taya—energetic, a runner, snack-obsessed, and proudly the biggest, goofiest personality in our house. I started this shop because, from our small town, baby essentials felt like a road trip away. Two hours there, two hours back… one nap missed, and a snack emergency later—there has to be a better way.

So I built a cozy corner of the internet where parents can find gently loved staples and sweet personalized pieces without the chaos. What started as a local solution has grown with this community—I’ve since expanded to offer products to mums internationally too, spreading the cause of sustainability and affordability one tiny outfit at a time.

What my days look like (on a good day)..

Morning: Negotiating with a tiny track star who believes pants are optional and snacks are a food group.

Midday: Photoshoots squeezed into nap windows while I say things only mums understand. (If anyone overheard me, they’d say, “come again?”)

Afternoon: Trying to clean up the same mess I’ve cleaned five times since 7 a.m.—and I’ll probably clean it five more times before bedtime.

Evening: Trying to convince Taya to eat the food on her own plate, even though she’s sure ours is better. It’s the same food. I promise.

The heart behind Little T’s..

Sustainability: Gently loved pieces deserve a second life. Tiny clothes shouldn’t be single-use.

Affordability: Parent-approved brands like Gap, Zara, Carter’s, and H&M—without the full-price sting.

Community: This shop exists because mums showed up. To the mums who’ve supported me from day one—thank you. Your love helped us grow beyond borders.

Now shipping internationally: So more families can join our gently loved movement—near or far.

The not-so-Instagram truth..

I spend a lot of time marketing, showing up online, and doing the behind-the-scenes grind—often waiting for that one sale of the week that keeps me moving into the next. Some weeks, it’s quiet. Some weeks, it’s a happy dance in the kitchen over one little order. Both are part of the story, and I’m here for the slow, steady build.

What you’ll find here..

Curated drops of gently loved baby and toddler clothes in the sizes you’re actually hunting for.

Personalized knit sweaters and blankets—keepsakes made to be loved and tucked away for years.

Regular, relatable blog posts about mum life, my swear by baby products (plus some of my must haves!), small business beginnings, and the messy middle .

Welcome to my chaos!

I’m learning as I go, juggling snacks, stitching, and social posts, and trying to make it easier for other mums to find what they need without the long drive. If you’re new here, I’m so glad you found us. If you’ve been here from the start, you have my whole heart.

Follow along for regular, relatable blog posts, new shop drops, and the real-life bits in between. Welcome to the chaos—there’s a seat for you here.

With gratitude (and a pocket full of snacks),

Annelise
