With Thanksgiving around the corner, we’d like to take this opportunity to thank all of the wonderful people that have made Perfecting Expecting possible…our families, vendor partners and of course YOU- our clients! 

What a perfect year…we’re so grateful!

Happy Thanksgiving!

-Sandee and Kristen

Perfecting Expecting is often asked:

How do you decide who to partner with or what products and services to recommend?

Recently, we have been spending a lot of our time developing partnerships with some of the very best vendors in the baby biz. So, what does this mean exactly?

Well, we hear from MANY vendors each day who want Perfecting Expecting to feature their work on our site or share their product with our clients. How do we begin to approach this? First, we ask them for a sample. Second, we put the products or services through rigorous tests including pushing/pulling/poking/admiring/eating/drinking/reading/touching… etc., and we’ll meet with the business owners in person or over the phone to talk details. Third, we read reviews, raves and/or rants and extensively research the products and services online. THEN, we make our decision. If we LOVE them (and only if we love them), we agree to put them into our portfolio of ‘Perfecting Expecting Picks.’  Our promise is to offer the very best products and services to our expecting families.

When we meet with our clients, we show them our Perfecting Expecting Picks. Our specialty is that we really hone in on which PE Picks we think are suited to their unique needs, desires, and budget. In most cases, we can also offer our clients an exclusive discount from these companies based on our partnership with them – and who doesn’t love a discount!?

We want you to know that Perfecting Expecting will not partner with just anyone. Nor will we recommend products or services to you because we are getting a kick-back. Nope, we are in this for you, dear families…!

And we’re picky.

We love moms and we love shopping…so nothing is more fun than a night full of BOTH!

Perfecting Expecting is proud to be a sponsor of Mommies Who Shop and their upcoming holiday event. For $15 you can enjoy admittance to the event, complimentary wine and nibbles, and fabulous event specials. Not to mention there are some SUPER fun swag bags…take our word for it.

We hope you can join us for a night out of mingling and shopping. You might just get a few of those holiday gifts purchased early this year!

Imagine this…a lovely baby shower, shades of light pink, yellow, green, or blue abundant. Teeny cupcakes as a treat, cups of tea, chatting women. Everything is SO beautiful and sweet. The gifts are given, and the guests “ooooh” and “aaah” in delight. And then, one of the gifts is opened…and laughter ensues for the gift of PUKIES has just been opened!

We met the creative minds behind this fabulous product and just loved what they had to say right away. They claim that “Pukies is what you want AND what you need.” We agree. They have designed enviroment-friendly and soy-based organic clothing, bibs, burp cloths, etc., in wonderful colors to match the colors of your baby’s food. You can disguise stains without using harsh chemicals or washing and scrubbing things 20 times over.

Aside from the environmental, fiscal, and humor-driven reasons to buy this product, we have even one more. They are super soft and the colors are actually quite lovely themselves! And, lastly, they have fantastic bright orange packaging to capture the mood of the product.

If you are looking for a memorable and special gift, this is one that that will surely be talked about (and spit up on) for months and years to come.
