Claire Van Der Merwe | Almost-Wifey | Mother

I started FinndieLoo in 2010 as a hobby to keep me occupied while we had two babies pretty much back to back! I feel so grateful to now have a little business that grows bigger each year, and to be able to work with these amazing people.
Heidi Tapper | Wife | Mother

My numbers guru! Heidi is my dear friend and the Accountant for FinndieLoo. She has helped me grow my business and offers much support and encouragement along the way.
Sandy Chisnall | Wife | Mother

Sandy customises our orders with names. She also packs all the completed orders and arranges the courier collection. She owns every single product that FinndieLoo has ever made, and gives me a huge support in running my business. It is fantastic having an extra set of hands up in our work studio.
Jaz McLean | Wife | Mother

Jaz is mum to 3 boys and enjoys sewing when they are in school/daycare. She is extremely neat and has a great eye for detail. Jaz is in charge of creating all of our patterns and conducts the training on how to sew them.
Wendy Thomas | Wife | Mother | Grandmother

Our longest member of the sewing department. Wendy loves to fill her days with sewing and paper crafts. Her attention to detail is impeccable which will show in your FinndieLoo products.
Betty Gilbert | Wife | Mother | Grandmother

Betty is also a member of our sewing department. She adores quilt making and also helps out in the community when she can each week. Her sewing is always perfect and attention to detail is on point too.
Karyn Brooker | Wife | Mother

Karyn is mum to 5 kids and enjoys to sew in spare time, which is why she loves being part of our sewing team. She also loves to keep fit and healthy. Karyn is a dedicated lady who is always eager to sew FinndieLoo products.
Jessica Quinney | Wife | Mother

Jess is mum to three kids and our newest member of FinndieLoo. She is going to be ensuring our website is up to date with new products as well as quality checks on all products arriving from production. Jess is a trained graphic Designer so you are sure to see her creativity popping up too.
