Contestant's Case to Win

This is based on the number of votes received.
My story starts the same as many work at home moms, I suppose. I was a corporate woman having my first baby and discovered that my life was about to take a new direction. I tried going back to the office after my daughter was born, I did, but my heart was home with my baby. I knew there had to be a way that I could contribute to the family and be home with my baby. Since my hobby for the past few months was researching the best baby items, I was sort of a pro – in my own mind at least. So, armed with my new knowledge, in 2003, Bargains4Babies was born! I love that my daughter and business were born the same year! Kind of exciting to watch them both grow together! In 2005, my son came along and by then, the business was going strong.

I feel so incredibly lucky to be living my dream. I love talking to first time mommies and grandmas and hearing the excitement in their voices. And helping someone find just the right item for their little bundle is so satisfying.

Of course there are days (well, everyday) when they kids are screaming when I’m ordering products and banging on the office doors when I’m taking an order or complaining about driving to the post office, but really, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
