Engaging with our community
Rhoost and Influential Summit
Earlier this month we were in sunny southern California for a unique gathering bringing together mom bloggers and brands. And while the weather outside wasn’t so sunny, the atmosphere inside was just dandy!
We connected with some of our favorite brands and met some new ones – Jujube (diaper bags), Crane (humidifiers), Uppababy (strollers), Ergobaby (baby carriers), Mabel’s Labels (durable kids’ labels), Ecopiggy (natural pacifier, nasal aspirator) and b.box (sippy cups and more) among many others!
Talented entrepreneurs and mom bloggers Xza Higgins from Mommycon and Parent & Co, and Saarah Samadani from New Bloom Media organized the event and also shared some expert social media and marketing advice.
As a brand, it’s so important to stay connected to moms (and dads) and we met some inspiring parents that are sharing their stories and building parenting communities on social media. Katie Vigos from the empoweredbirthproject, Angela Kim from Mommy Diary®, and Danielle Lucia Schaffer of citygirlgonemom just to name a few.
Valentine’s Day was also right around the corner so we had the perfect opportunity to make use of some custom color Nail Clippers!
As much as we love work, we also love to play – and we definitely found time for that!
Toddlers love to explore, and the stairs are the perfect place to practice climbing, making them one of the most common destinations for babies on the go. But they can also be extremely dangerous if toddlers try to climb them on their own, making it essential for parents to buy baby gates. You may also want to invest in finger pinch guards, wall outlet covers, and other protective equipment to keep your baby safe.
If you have a toddler, or even a baby who’s not quite yet walking, but has learned to crawl and to pull herself up on furniture and “cruise” around the room, it’s likely that you spend a fair amount of time each day removing items from her reach, her grasp, or even her mouth. Young children are naturally curious, and they test the world around them by touching and tasting everything they can. This means that parents of little explorers need to babyproof their home, Grandma’s house and anyplace else the child might spend time.
