This week on the Tuesday Tip,
we are talking with Jennifer Stevens,
CuddleTug creator!
These little guys are adorable and such a great idea!
Your business in a few words:
Here is a little bit about CuddleTug..... I created CuddleTug
which is a stretchy, soft necklace that mom (or dad) can wear while
holding or nursing/feeding a baby to keep baby's busy hands occupied.
Instead of pinching mommy's skin, pulling on her hair, and tugging on
jewelry, the baby has something entertaining and safe with which to
play!
CuddleTug can also be strapped to a stroller, high chair, or baby
carrier for a toy that won't fall! You can attach a light weight toy
onto the CuddleTug for even more fun. Babies who are 0 -3/4 months will
love to look at the CuddleTug and when they start reaching and grabbing,
it becomes incredibly useful! My little guy, Benjamin is 2.5 and I
still use CT's with him--strapped on his car seat, shopping cart and I
even wore it in church the other day. Lastly, CuddleTugs can help
decorate diaper cakes! Needless to say, CuddleTug is a very useful and
unique product. It makes a super baby shower gift and mommies love to
buy CT's for themselves.
How long have you been in business?
For just about two years
Best reason to shop with you?
CuddleTug is baby-inspired & mom-made in the USA! CuddleTug is
truly a quality product that comes from the heart as I made it for my
son, Benjamin. I trust and love it for my child, so other moms can
expect the same!
Best thing about having your own business?
CuddleTug has been a great outlet for my creative edge. I really
enjoy creating new designs and helping customers with special
orders. There has also been quite a learning curve for marketing &
social media which has been both challenging and interesting! But,
the absolute best part is seeing the CuddleTugs being used and loved by
mamas and babies!
Favorite local business/places to shop etc:
Poppies Gifts in Birkdale
The best thing about buying local?
When you buy local you are supporting your own community and something that is hopefully made in the USA!
