Preserving precious memories with handcrafted keepsake memory bears, memorial pillows and more. Since 2015.
Established in 2015 as a small home-based business, Nestling Keepsakes quickly grew into a full time pursuit. At this point I have lovingly crafted thousands of keepsake memory bears, birth weight memory bears and other keepsake animals. I have made keepsake and memory animals from baby clothes and sleepers, baby blankets, pet blankets, school uniforms, and adult clothing - from Harley Davidson t-shirts to ladies blouses and nightgowns.
Quality is the number one goal in everything I do. By drawing on years of experience in graphic arts and customer service, I am able to make the best choices to create the most beautiful keepsake with your treasured fabric, while guiding you through the process with compassion.
Thank you for choosing Nestling Kids Keepsakes for your memory bears and other keepsakes!

Let customers speak for us
My mom loves to look back on photos and special moments. I knew I wanted to preserve some baby clothes that my mom had stored in boxes. I stumbled upon nestling keepsakes and will be purchasing more bears in the future. The detail and care given to both bears…so perfect. Can’t wait to see my mom’s reaction. Make sure to order months before you need the item, Cara has detailed description of the process of ordering, producing and mailing!
Super well made - thoughtful and perfect memorial. Very happy with it and will treasure it always!
Overfilled with joy how well these are made! Quality and care is 2nd to none even with shipping. Not a single loose thread anywhere, family members cannot get over the details!! 10/10 would recommend and do business again. Package made it safe all the way to Jacksonville, FL. Start to finish took about 4-5 months for this order: 4 large kitty cats, 1 large dragon, 1 pillow, 11 regular animals. Thanks so much for bringing joy to the family!!!!
My friend lost her dad not long ago and she got pregnant afterwards, I wanted to give the baby something that was part of her grandpa and that she could cuddle and have around, I found Nestling Keepsakes and I loved the shape of the bear and how well made all of Cara's creations look. My friend moved out from our state so I asked Cara for help and she was kind enough to change the address and name so it could be shipped to my friend directly. Cara was very accommodating and I'm grateful for that.
My friend opened the gift today and loved it. It was beautiful, thank you Cara 😊
I love Christmas and these stockings made of my grandmothers sweater. I just love it.
I ordered the pillows for my cousins who are both really missing our grandmother and it brought them so much comfort. I can’t say enough good things about this company.
I cried when I first saw my memorial dragon. It is absolute perfection. My step kid died unexpectedly, so I sent in various articles of clothing to Nesting Keepsake for a memorial dragon. The artist, Cara, captured my step kid’s spirit amazingly. I am forver grateful.
These animals are just so cute and provide just a lasting memory for those that receive them. I got this made from my grandmothers pajamas for her great grandson she wasn’t able to meet while she was alive. Such a special gift for the kids

We had this mouse made for grandma’s great granddaughter that she didn’t get to meet. This will be one of the most special things in her life.
I bought 2 patterns that came with easy to follow directions, interfacing, stuffing, eyes, and adorable felt nose. I took my time and the bears turned out great. A wonderful way to create a keepsake out of my dad’s clothing.
This bear was such a special gift to remember my grandmother by. The quality that goes into making these items is amazing. I was so happy to get so many things from one vendor and absolutely loved every single thing that was received. So thankful for Cara and this company for what they do.
Our bear was a beautiful memento of our infant son who passed away. It’s something my husband and I will treasure forever. It has helped in the healing process.
I have gotten 3 keepsakes, 2 bears for the boys and now the sloth for my granddaughter all have been perfect!
