| Aromababy baby WORKSHOP was created by Melbourne's Catherine Cervasio-Arfi
in 1994. A complete concept. The first of its kind and centred around the pure and gentle AROMABABY® skincare products… Born of a desire to provide natural and organic baby skin care as well as environmentally-friendly baby clothing, lush towelling and accessories for her own firstborn more than a decade ago, Catherine developed the 'baby WORKSHOP' concept which would set the standard for many baby goods world-wide and most importantly, natural, organic-rich baby skin care. The Australian Breastfeeding Association is pleased to have a long-standing partnership with Catherine and the baby WORKSHOP team who regularly support the Association's health professional seminars and
production of the ABA Calendar. |
