Bonsie Babywear
Bonsie Skin to Skin Babywear was born from a mother’s love for her children. Launched by mother and clinical social worker Anna Turcotte, the Maine-based family business sells footies, baby bag sets and cuddle sacks, all designed to make skin-to-skin contact easy.

Since 2020, Bonsie has tripled its sales with Amazon and is on track to generate $350,000 in sales this year. In 2024, Turcotte is aiming to transition to Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) as part of the company’s growth strategy and she has her sights set on bringing Bonsie Skin to Skin Babywear to customers in Canada.
