Bau Co. is a family clothing line created to give back. Your purchase will directly contribute to local causes. You make a difference!

If you’re like us, we have been living in comfy clothes all of Covid. We also are at home all day every day. Kaela and Chauntel are on maternity leave and Tenille was on sick leave because of her recent diagnosis of lupus. With that being said,  we are normally used to having very full schedules and doing important work that contributes to others and the community. Our careers are dedicated  to serving others. Tenille is a Social Worker who specializes in Mental Health.  She contributes to peoples’ wellbeing every single day in significant ways. Kaela and Chauntel are both teachers, coaches, and volunteers. We spend all day, everyday contributing to our students’ academic lives, extracurricular lives, and community. So, we decided to create our own platform. We have created Bau Co.

Bau for Baudu.
We are rural SK farm girls, raised to have a ferocity to make our way in the world, trusting ourselves and our capabilities. We grew up on the farm and having no brothers, our dad very soon realized that traditional gender roles would not apply to our family. It took us a while into our adult lives to recognize that these stereotypical gender roles were something we would continually face. There are examples like career scenarios, the wage gap, the opportunity gap, maternity leave inequities, and treatment that we and many woman face first hand. We proudly share our last name, here on this platform, to represent change, equality, empowerment, ability, and strength in hopes that one day women won’t need to develop resiliency to daily address the “gap”.

For us, it started with our mom.
We had a single mom, working 3+ jobs to support her 4 daughters. She raised us all while doing it with a smile on her face, a bounce in her step, and exuding positivity. From her, we learned to work hard, be independent, be out spoken, to give back, be involved, “do something”, and above all, be kind to others.  Thank you for all that you do Mama Bear, and for the love and kindness you put out into the world every day! We want to be part of the larger community of parents and individuals out there, living their best lives and encouraging others to do the same.

Without the platforms we were used to having that allowed us to give back, we decided to create our own platform. We have created Bau Co. This is a casual, family clothing line that serves multiple purposes:

1. It allows us to add a comfy sweater to our leggings and top “covid uniform” rotation
2. All our pieces are unisex and gender neutral, so they are an option for the entire family
3. Proceeds from each line will be donated to a local cause or charity! So, by purchasing something from Bau Co., you can give back and get a great sweater at the same time!

There are so many people struggling right now, and we are not people who can sit back and do nothing. With Bau Co., we are hoping to make a small difference in contributing to goodness during these hard times.

Being 2 new moms and a somewhat seasoned mom, our greatest hope for our children is that they be kind humans, with hearts full of passion and ferocity (yes, we know this will get them into trouble at times 😳). However, we want them to be unapologetically authentic, where they strive to be the best versions of themselves, and inspire others to want to do the same. Bau Co. exists to serve.  Bau Co. is here to support.  Bau Co. is founded on creating further goodness.
