Our Story


Hey there! I'm Michelle, and Alva was born from my own pumping struggles.

Like you, I was navigating the beautiful chaos of new motherhood when I bought my first wearable breast pump. While I loved the freedom it promised, I quickly realised it wasn't quite hitting the mark. It felt like it was designed by someone who'd never actually used one.

That's when the idea for Alva sparked.

Why Alva Exists

As a mama who's been deep in the trenches of pumping life, I've spent years researching, testing, and understanding what really matters to women on their feeding journey. I've talked to hundreds of mums, studied the science behind milk expression, and worked tirelessly to create pumps that actually work with your real life, not against it.

Our Promise to You

We're not just another pump company. We're your loyal companions on this journey, created by someone who truly gets what you're going through. When you choose Alva, you're getting products designed with deep understanding of the realities of motherhood — the 3am sessions, the juggling act of work and pumping, the need for something that just works without adding stress to your day.

Every pump we create is tested by real mamas in real situations, because we believe you deserve products that understand your world.
