5 out of 5 starsMy 4 year old niece wanted a pink pillow with unicorns and rainbows, so this was perfect! My request for a pink back and other special requests were followed perfectly and the shop communication was great!

Headquarters for The Traveling Tot and Sleepy Dust Designs - my office/work space
Work at Home Mom
I opened The Traveling Tot (formerly named Two Little Monkies) in the spring of 2010 with the intention of making my shop a hobby, hoping to sell some of the items I made for my own children. Over the last 7 years my shop is grown more than I could have ever imagined and has become more of a full-time job than just a hobby.
I began with a just a few travel neck pillows and since then I have added over a dozen types of children and baby items to my stock. In 2017 I made the decision to branch off from The Traveling Tot to open Sleepy Dust Designs for my baby items and baby carrier accessories.
I love making my own patterns and finding a new way to make each item. I pride myself on quality and I believe that each item should be made with care and attention to detail as I would if making it for my own children.
I would not have this business if it wasn't something that I truly loved to do, and that is what motivates me every day. I strive to do my best, from making high quality and long lasting products to providing excellent customer service and fast shipping. I pride myself in having excellent feedback and I feel a good reputation is an important part of my business.
I love the flexibility of working from home while still being able to care for my children. Having a home based business has given me the opportunity to help contribute financially, while still being with my children all day. I typically sew once my children are in bed because caring for my children leaves me with very little time during the day! I wouldn't change a thing about it though, I enjoy having the opportunity to sneak away to the quiet of my office every night and focus on doing something that I enjoy!
