ABOUT SHOP
Welcome! Waku Waku Baby is a one-stop shop where you can find boutique baby gifts and kids accessories for your little ones.

Each item is thoughtfully handmade from imaginative and colorful fabrics in the North Hills of Pittsburgh, PA.
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Oh hello there! I'm Seiko - the maker and owner of Waku Waku Baby.
I discovered my love for sewing colorful and functional baby accessories in 2018 when my son was 8 months old. At first I started sewing out of necessity since he was quite a drooler and needed absorbent and stylish bibs as a part of his daily outfit. Then my little one started walking and needed soft sole shoes that he wouldn't be able to take off himself. It was also difficult to find shoes that had an opening wide enough for his chunky ankles. So this is how I started making shoes that were adjustable around the ankle and fully lined for comfort.
As months went by, I continued to embark on new projects and started gifting my handmade items to my friends. I felt so much joy in doing so and sewing soon became a meaningful creative outlet for me.
​
In 2019, I was inspired to open my shop, Waku Waku Baby, so that I can continue to share my passion of making colorful and functional baby gifts and kids accessories with families in Pittsburgh and beyond.
SURFACE PATTERN DESIGN
Ever since I launched Waku Waku Baby my dream has been to design my own fabric patterns one day. I am so excited to share with you that this dream is finally becoming reality! The first exclusive Waku Waku Baby x Seiko Sisco collection is set to launch in November 2022!
