meet emma.

Emma here! Founder mom in charge at Ava & Oliver. Our small business was built by me alongside my husband Holden and our two little ones, Isla and Liam. We launched the brand as we were dreaming of starting our own family, inspired by the idea that baby products could be modern, stylish, and beautifully made without compromising on quality and safety. 

Ava & Oliver started with one simple idea: non-toxic, catch-all bibs that made messy meals a little less stressful. What began at the kitchen table has grown into a full line of thoughtfully designed kids’ essentials - from mealtime to playtime and all the little moments in between.

Every product we create is designed with aloha right here in beautiful Honolulu, Hawaii, with real families in mind - and often in collaboration with local artists we love. We’re all about elevated basics, pieces that blend form and function, and that look just as good on your Instagram feed as they do in your home. 

Thank you for being here, being a part of our story, and for shopping small. We hope our products bring a smile to your face and ease to your everyday.
