Our Story

Welcome to Nummy life! I’d like to introduce you to my company and mission.

When our first daughter was born in 2015, I of course wanted her to have healthy and nutritious food to eat. I knew how to find healthy food, but I soon realized the products I was using to prepare, store, and serve that food *also* had a big impact on our food’s health—and our daughter’s. Many of the products I was using every single day—most made of plastic—were releasing chemicals into our food, making it less healthy and having a long-term impact on our daughter’s health. Worse, better products were really hard to find.

I was mindful about *what* I was feeding our daughter, and I wanted to be just as mindful about what I was using to prepare, serve, and store her food. I learned that products made with non-plastic materials like medical grade silicone, glass, stainless steel and bamboo were both healthier for our family and better for our planet. They don’t release toxins into our food, and they create less waste. They last longer, have a smaller environmental footprint, and are all either recyclable or compostable.

That’s our mission: to create products we love that are better for our health and our planet.

Nummy products will never use plastic and will only use the most sustainable materials available, so we can feel confident using them with our families.
