I live almost an hour from my nearest Trader Joe’s. That means when I plan a Trader Joe’s visit, it’s a real event. I go with a long list of favorites and some leeway to add new finds to my cart. All that to say, my latest TJ’s haul proved to be very successful in …

I want you to picture a few relatable scenarios with me: Do any of these scenarios sound familiar? If so, I have the solution to all of them: rent what you need from responsible baby equipment owners  (called Quality Providers) through BabyQuip!

My daughter has had a balance bike for a couple of years, but she never really showed that much interest in it. As much as she loves running around outside and dancing ballet, the general area of “athletics” hasn’t interested her much at all. But suddenly this summer, the bike caught her interest and she …

As you probably already know, Halloween is right around the corner. If you’re like me, at least one of your kids still does not yet have a costume. (I’ll be totally honest – I have big plans to DIY my daughter’s costume myself. But there’s part of me that is taking note of this post …
