College of Charleston Alum harnesses her personal story as an NICU mom into her new small business, Kangaroo Cozies
By Mark A. Leon
Life often presents us with daunting challenges that seem insurmountable. However, these obstacles can transform into miracles, awakening a sense of gratitude or purpose within us. For Julia, her son’s premature birth at 27 weeks, weighing just 2 pounds and spending three months in the NICU, revealed a purpose beyond motherhood: Kangaroo Cozies.
This Charleston-based business, founded by a proud 2013 College of Charleston alumna and mother, offers a carefully curated line of essential products for NICU babies, providing comfort and support during their critical early days.
A portion of every sale is donated to support NICU babies and their families
About Julia, Founder of Kangaroo Cozies
Hi! I’m Julia, the proud owner of this small business. As a mother of two, and a fellow NICU mom, my journey has deeply influenced my mission to create Kangaroo Cozies.
Our son was born at 27 weeks, weighing just 2 lbs, and spent three months in the NICU. During our NICU journey, finding the perfect clothing for our tiny miracle was a challenge.
Our store offers incredibly soft products, tailored to be gentle on your baby’s delicate skin. My hope is that Kangaroo Cozies provides comfort and support to babies who are currently navigating their own NICU stay.
