Our Story

“We hope to encourage indigenous communities throughout Aotearoa and abroad to be proud of their whakapapa and cultural identity. Believing that this begins in the home and better yet, from birth, we have curated quality Māori and Pacific Island taonga to embrace your baby in the earliest stages of life”

Ko Ngātokimatawhaorua te waka, ko Hokianga whakapou karakia te moana,
ko Te Ramaroa te maunga, ko Whiria te pa, ko Pakanae te marae,
ko Maraeroa te wharenui, ko Ngāpuhi nui tonu iwi,
ko Ngāti Korokoro, ko Ngāti Wharera, me te pouka ngā hapu,
kei Kirikiriroa ahau e noho ana,
ko Beau rāua ko Arley aku tamariki,
ko Amy toku ingoa.

ko Weraiti te maunga, ko Mangapiko te awa, ko Tainui te waka,
ko Ngāti Hinerangi, Ngāti Haua rātou Ngāti Raukawa oku iwi,
ko Ngāti Tokotoko te hapu,
ko Te Ohaki te marae, kei Kirikiriroa ahau e noho ana,
ko Koree rāua ko Kiani aku tamariki,
ko Dayna toku ingoa.

Ko wai tātou? Ko "BO & KO Baby" mātou. "BO" represents Amy's tama 'Beau', and “KO” represents Dayna's tama 'Koree', our pēpi/pepe are of Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Hinerangi, and Samoan descent. We thought it extremely fitting to name our pakihi after our two beautiful boys that made us māmā and gave us the drive and motivation to bring our brand to life. 
...
Born from our desire and inspiration to reflect the strength of whānau and immerse our pēpi in their culture from birth, we identified a gap in the market for cultural baby goods. This began our journey to design and offer products that celebrate our heritage, right here in Aotearoa and beyond. 
...
At the heart of our pakihi is the love for our whānau, a commitment to revitalising
Te Ao Māori and Pacific culture, and a focus on high-quality products.
