Best Practices

• •Embrace Warmth and Friendliness: Always use inviting and approachable language. Address the audience directly (e.g., "you," "your little ones"). Use positive and joyful words.
• •Highlight Family and Community: Weave in the story of the brand's family inspiration and its goal to connect with and support other families and the local community. Use terms that evoke togetherness and shared experiences.
• •Keep it Enthusiastic and Cheerful: Use exclamation points and positive emojis judiciously (especially on social media) to convey genuine excitement. Share good news and milestones with an upbeat spirit.
• •Focus on the "Adorable" and "Thoughtful": Consistently describe products and the shopping experience using words that align with the brand's curated and charming aesthetic (e.g., "treasures," "sweet," "cozy," "thoughtfully selected").
• •Be Authentic and Relatable: As founders who are also mothers, sharing relatable parenting moments or the journey of building the business can resonate with the target audience and reinforce the brand's genuine and down-to-earth personality.
