About_Us

I quit teaching after a few years to be with my infant son and to complete our family with one more beautiful baby boy. After 4 years at home, I felt a calling to do something I had never even considered, start a maternity clothing business. I had volunteered with a local Christian school where my son attended, and had so many doors opened for me that all I needed to do was walk through. What began as a brick and mortar establishment has now evolved to a website as well. It has been one of the most amazing jobs to be able to see women ecstatic about becoming mothers and to be able to see their miracles after birth as well. This store has been a blessing to me and so many others who do not have to drive 90 miles to get to a maternity store. I hope this site can be a blessing to many more!
