Hello, I'm Gemma.
I'm a mum to my wonderful daughter, Matilda, and the heart behind with you.
Like so many mums, I started thinking about my daughter's first period long before it arrives. I wondered how she would feel, if she would be at school, if she would know what to do and, most importantly, if she would feel scared or alone.
I wanted her to feel prepared, reassured and confident for the moment that comes in its own time.
As I looked for something to help her feel ready, I couldn't quite find what I was looking for. I wanted something calm and thoughtful. Something practical, but also comforting. A pouch that she could keep in her school bag, knowing it was there whenever she needed it.
That's how with you was born.
Each pouch has been carefully put together with the things I would want for my own daughter - beautiful, practical essentials and gentle reassurance for a moment that can feel big and unknown.
But with you is about more than what's inside the pouch.
It's about opening up conversations. It's about helping parents know where to start. It's about giving girls confidence and reminding them that periods are a normal part of growing up and nothing to be frightened of.
Most of all, it's about letting every girl know:
You're okay.
You've got this.
And we're with you.
with love,
Gemma x
