The Countdown is ON!
Nurtured has been honoured with the nomination of the SAVVYMOM MOMPRENEUR OF THE YEAR AWARD.
This award provides a top prize of $18,000 in cash and business consultation services. Winning the Mompreneur of the Year Award would mean greater efficiency, wider product selection, and the assurance that Nurtured will be here for your family in the future. We are proud to be your local resource for cloth diapers, baby carriers, plastic-free toys and products to help provide a healthier, better world and future for our children. It is BECAUSE I'm a mom that I feel compelled to educate and advocate against our "disposable" lifestyle, and it is BECAUSE I'm a mom I feel a strong need to do whatever I can to make sure BananaMuffin and Spunky (along with your children) have a chance at a better future - and isn't that what we all want for our children? Help us spread the word to more families who can benefit from not only economically by switching from disposable diapers, but also benefit by not exposing developing children to unnecessary toxins and chemicals.
This is a reader’s choice award, and we would greatly appreciate if you could take the time to vote for us! The contest closes Sunday, September 16th. Thank you so much for your support! We appreciate everyone who has taken the time to vote (sometimes with multiple email addresses - thank you!) and send us wishes of good luck and support. The unending kindness shown to me by you, the Nurtured community, reminds me every single day why I love what I do and why I am compelled to keep going!
Being a mompreneur is rewarding, but it is not easy. Owning your own business consumes many more hours than a typical 9-5 job, especially when you're a one-woman show - the shipper, receiver, accounts payable manager, accounts receivable manager, customer service, book keeper, inventory manager, custodial staff and child care provider all rolled into one. I often joke that I have three full-time jobs - my daughter, my son, and my business. But, I love it. I feel fulfilled, I feel rewarded, I feel lucky to have met and continue to meet wonderful and interesting families. I feel as though I am making a difference, and that feels good.
Thank you for your votes! April
