💡 Parenting Hacks
✨ Top 3 Laundry Care Tips from Elysse, an UpChoose mom of two from California:
We almost always have some sort of bib on Cora.
If she does get a stain we soak it in warm water right away.
Try to move slowly even when the baby gets impatient haha. We usually give her a pacifier or a toy so that she’s not too antsy and has avoided tears so far.
📣 UpChoose Community Shoutouts
🎶 Maria releases a new lullaby album!
Hi UpChoose fam! My name is Mariya Kaganskaya and I’m a first time mom to six-month-old David, who lives almost entirely in his UpChoose sets! I’m also a professional opera singer, and have just released an album of classical and folk lullabies called To My Little Dreamer. I hope that many little dreamers out there will be relaxed, enriched, and inspired by these pieces in the years to come, and I’d be honored if you played it for yours! Stream it on Spotify
👏 Amanda receives her 8th UpChoose set for Sloan
Through her 8 sets, Amanda received 162 clothing pieces for Sloan, and has returned 100% of the items! 94% of the items returned were in good condition, allowing dozens of families to receive gently-used organic cotton clothes for a fraction of the price. Amanda, thank you for your amazing impact and commitment to making smarter and more sustainable choices! 💚 🌍
