Our Story

Hi, I’m Izzy!

Founder, owner and mama behind The Milk Collective. 

I started this little business in lockdown 2020, with a newborn of my own. 

How beautiful is it that Mothers are the very source of life? Having grown and birthed babies, our bodies then go on to produce a complete food source for our baby’s first 6 months of life. How amazing is that?!

But breastfeeding isn’t always easy for everyone, and before starting this business, i could definitely relate to many of the struggles.

I was once fortunate enough to be in a position to donate some of my own breastmilk to a mama in need. The feeling of being able to help, filled me with so much joy. Especially because i know how much anxiety low milk supply can cause. That, along with being motivated by my own breastfeeding journey is what encouraged me to start The Milk Collective.

We are proud to be a 100% NZ owned and operated family business. Our mission is to support lactation and postpartum with natural, wholesome food blends. All of our products have been carefully formulated with the help of industry experts and will always contain only the best ingredients that are safe for mama and baby.
