washPOD



Newborn babies have a hard time getting used to the new world they have been thrown into. Experts say the best thing we can do for our fussy newborns is to try to mimic the womb. With the Prince Lionheart washpod you can provide that cozy womb atmosphere while giving your baby a bath.



The washpod offers warmth, comfort and safety for infants. It is designed to hold your baby snugly, like when they were in the womb. Your baby will be well supported and comfortable, and because your baby is upright, it's easier to wash them.

Because the washpod is upright it is easy to store and it uses less water than a flat baby bath tub. Which makes this product not only baby friendly, but earth friendly too!

Here is a review of the washpod (click on the review to make it larger).



The washpod is for infants 0-6 months. It is available at our store for $24.99.

Speed Sitter Event-RECAP

We have had a whirlwind week here at Nurture. As you know, we let Premier Sitter Services host a speed sitter event at our store on Wednesday night. On Monday we received a call from NBC saying they wanted to do a news story on the event. We were thrilled, but there was one problem, we were not expecting a huge turnout so we needed to work quickly on getting more people to the event. After some emails, phone calls, and reducing the price to FREE, we ended up with 6 parents and 8 babysitters, not a bad turnout, we breathed a small sigh of relief.

On Wednesday we received another call from NBC, they wanted to send a crew out that afternoon to interview a mom attending the event. Since the event did not start until 7 we had to scramble to find a mom who was attending the event and available to come to the store at 3:30 for an interview. We made a few calls and finally found a Mom who could do it. At 3:00pm we had everything ready for our big TV debut and our Mom was on her way. Then we got another call from NBC, a tragic shooting had happened at the Holocaust Museum and they would not be able to make it to our store for the interview, however they still planned on showing up for the event. We called our Mom who was on her way and told her to turn around.

At 7pm our parents and babysitters were in their seats ready to meet each other. The event went well. The parents each got a folder with 14 sitter resumes, complete with their references and availability, and got to meet with 8 of the 14 sitters on the spot. After the speed interviews were over everyone was able to do a little discounted shopping and mingle. At around 8:30pm we still had no sign of a camera crew. We soon found out that the crew was almost at the store, when they were told to turn around and get to the scene of a horrible car crash in Philadelphia,

So our little speed sitter event turned out to be not so newsworthy when compared to the tragic breaking news that was happening on Wednesday. We were very saddened to hear of these two events, and our hearts go out to the victims in these stories. We of course understand that these stories needed to have news coverage over our own. We just think it’s funny that we spent three days going bonkers over a camera crew that never made it! Oh well, it was entertaining to say the least, and we ended up having a fabulous event, so it was worth it.

Speed Sitter Event


Can you remember the last time you and your husband had a romantic evening together? What about the last time you went out to a restaurant with out an artillery of sippy cups and plastic placemats? Wouldn't it be nice to go shopping for a few hours with only your wallet in tow as opposed to a massive diaper bag? Whatever the reason, every parent needs a good babysitter, and every parent can attest to how hard it is to find one. If your looking for a sitter, we have the perfect event for you.

On Wednesday June 10, from 7pm-9pm Premier Sitter Services will be hosting a Speed Sitter Interview event at our store. Each parent will have four minutes to speak with up to 20 babysitters to learn more about their availability, experience and personality. Once the speed interviews are complete, 30 minutes remain to mingle and learn more about the candidates. Parents will also receive the coveted Sitter Directory, with a resume, photo and contact info for each sitter present at the event.

Of course no event held at our store would be complete with out light refreshments and discounted shopping.

So grab your girlfriends and come down to the store for what could be the first of many well deserved girls nights out.
