latchOn® was designed by two stay-at-home moms who wanted a way to discreetly nurse their babies in public without having to haul around a separate nursing cover. They created latchOn® in order to make life a little easier for stylish moms, nursing on the go. They founded their company, The Button BarnTM in the fall of 2008.
Introduced in February of 2009, latchOn® quickly became a nursing mother’s essential because of it’s convenience, utility, and stylish appeal. In less than a year, latchOn® is selling in stores, boutiques and gift shops throughout the west.
latchOn® has received high praise from moms and media alike, and has been featured in articles, blogs and on television (see our press page.) The Button BarnTM looks forward to continued growth in 2011 and is committed to excellence in quality and service.
What is the latchOn® nursing blanket strap?
latchOn® nursing blanket strap is designed for busy moms, nursing on-the-go, who want to discreetly feed their babies in public without having to haul around a separate nursing blanket.
latchOn® eliminates the need to carry a bulky nursing cover. Whichever blanket you have with you quickly and easily converts to a nursing blanket.
Measuring just 2 ½” wide x 19 ½” long, latchOn® folds up so small, it fits easily in any diaper bag, purse, or even in your pocket. Babies need lots of “stuff” when they travel, and latchOn® frees up precious diaper bag space. And weighing less than 2 oz, it’s a breeze to carry and to wear.
latchOn® is made from stylish, high quality fabrics, and our unique, sterling silver plated flower clips that grip tightly without damaging the blanket. Functional and fashionable, latchOn® is the essential accessory for any nursing mom.
Using the latchOn
Drape the blanket across your chest, then simply place the strap around the back of your neck, and attach the clips to the blanket edge, approximately 10” to 12” apart. To create a viewing pocket to see your baby, adjust the clips further apart, and then pull the blanket away from you between the two clips.
The blanket may be worn straight across your chest, or over one shoulder. When switching feeding sides, simple grab the blanket and trade shoulders – the latchOn® will follow without needing to unclip it.
