Today we're talking with April from Jamberry! What is Jamberry? Jamberry nail wraps are a Non toxic vinyl wrap that will not chip or smudge. They require no dry time, which is vital to busy mommies. We carry over 300 designs, including a line for little ladies. How did you get into it? For me, Jamberry started out as an easy way to earn some cash to pay for my Jamberry addiction. It quickly turned into much more! What has Jamberry done for your life? I made so many new friends whom I adore. It was very easy to fall in love with this company. After 8 months, I achieved the rank of Team Manager. This enabled me to quit my "real job" and become a full time Stay at Home Mommy! At the same time, I was able to pay for my youngest to attend an amazing private school and purchase the new family sized car we really needed! I am so thankful for all the love and support that Jamberry and my coworkers give me! It's been such a blessing to our family.

"Say Yes to healthy organic beauty, say No to toxic chemicals!" NYR Organic - pioneers of ethical organic health & beauty https://us.nyrorganic.com/shop/alisag/area/products/ How did you get into NYR? "Last year I was seeking a company that whose ethics matched the ones that I hold dear. In one of those synchronistic moments I learned of NYR Organic. The ethical roots of this company go deep - they are and were leaders before GMO. Fair trade, Fair Wild, Carbon Neutral and Organic were catch words. Today, NYR Organic are active supporters of Moms Across America among other organization stranding firm for the health of the planet and all life that shares it.

Or learning how to connect the causation of recurring illness and health issues like ear infections, thrush, or allergies? I am a mother,too, and I am passionate about educating others on the ease and importance of building safe alternative arsenals to have at your fingertips. Who wants to venture out to an Urgent care at 2:00 a.m. for an ear infection, tummy trouble or fever? Save the trip because now you have options! My own healing journey landed me at the mercy of a friend who answered my call and it changed my life. Her gift also changed how I take care of my family. My personal experiences with Certified Pure Therapeutic Essential Oils eventually led me to an opportunity to earn my Certification of Holistic Health Coach (Levels 1,2,3) and Biblical Health Coach. I am the owner of Radiant Living Solutions, a natural health and wellness coaching practice serving those who wish to create empowering change in their lives. Honoring the whole body is imperative to living a life of radiant joy! Receiving nutrients from whole, living foods is the primary foundation for whole health. Sometimes a little additional help and guidance is needed to round it all out and together we can help find your state of optimal health. I also offer Chakra Healing, Iridology consultation, MRT, AromaTouch Technique and Zyto scan technology to help us zero in on root causation for areas of concern. It is a privilege to be your wellness partner and share these simple daily actions to Radiant Living Solutions. Heather McGuirk Radiantlivingsolutions.eoinfo.com Sante Mama began its journey in 2010. Sante Mama has grown from a two doula operation to a multi-faceted boutique and durable medical equipment supplier. The many sides of Sante Mama offer our community the resources for medically necessary equipment like breastpumps, compression hosiery, and maternity support belts, with the compassion, understanding and experience of a local boutique. The Sante Mama staff works hard at maintaining their working knowledge of the insurance system to ensure that your experience is as easy as possible. On our boutique side, Sante Mama is excited to announce the addition of many great new products. We have brought in some amazingly functional, yet very fashionable nursing wear and kangaroo care lines, some adorable breast pump bags for all those pumps out there with no bag, as well as, many other wonderful, useful tools for enhancing and continuing the breastfeeding relationship. At Sante Mama the heartbeat of our business is to be a trusted source for not only products, services, and education but most of all, loving the families and giving them what they need….. in whatever way we can.This is what we call “doing retail the doula way.” Milagros Boutique joined the Sante Mama family in 2014 and both stores could not be happier to have acquired such a wonderful sister. Like sisters both stores share many similarities in that both love to help families whether new or expanding, both offer a wide array of amazing products geared toward making the transition of bringing home a new baby easier, and both strive to be a well known, well loved community resource to all. The differences between these two sisters come in many forms, Milagros caters to baby and beyond; carrying toys good for teeny tinys all the way through hands on toddlers. Milagros has an extensive library of baby carriers ranging from easy newborn on and go to the ever amazing woven wraps and everything imaginable in between. While Milagros works hard to carry the name brands families know and trust, they have also become home to many local Portland and Vancouver artists.
Both sisters love each other for what they have to offer, enjoy sharing products, customers, and staff and as always look forward to being that soft landing all parents look for. Look for Sante Mama near the stage as they are one of our Event Sponsors! Their commitment to WellMama is the most generous this year! Hooray to Sante Mama and Milagros for investing in our community! Whoa! I cannot believe WellMama is a month away!! We have some incredible vendors for you this year- and we are partnering with Squires PDX for a more inclusive family experience. Partners and support people of all identifications are welcomed with open arms at WellMama- because families don't need to look like one another to have strong love and healthy bonds! We wanted to include the partners that identify as Papas this year in WellMama because darn it, Dads are important! This year we'll have a "Man Cave" where the WellPapas can go to chat about specific things that come up in everyday Dad life. I'm so excited to offer this opportunity!!
We're trying to nail down a food vendor- so if you know anyone... we're all ears! And tummies! I'm so excited as we move closer to this event. We're going to have a Bingo activity- our great raffle and fundraiser for Squires PDX and the Clark County Breastfeeding Coalition, activities for kiddos, vendors with lots of fab stuff to share, our famous WellMama Swag bags for the earlybirds, and educational speakers & community tables! Whew, are you dizzy yet? It's going to be a fan-frickin-tastic day!! Stay tuned for a Vendor Roll Call! |
