Contestant's Case to Win

Ah Goo Baby set out in 2007 to define its global brand image as a premier baby products manufacturer for the modern parent who has an active and dynamic way of living. Our customers are searching for innovations that would make their lives more comfortable and would improve their freedom of movement.

Karin Halstead Telegadis has had a successful career in the television industry working as a Business Development and Programming executive at NBC and Showtime Networks. Her responsibilities at NBC required her to travel extensively both in Europe and Asia. During her time in the industry, Karin built significant personal and business relationships with various Hollywood elite and celebrities.

In 2003, Karin gave birth to their first daughter, Grace, followed by Sophia in 2004. Once Karin realized her joy of being a mother, she put her career on hold to take on the mommy role full-time. In 2005, Karin decided to blend her love of motherhood with her background in business by founding Ah Goo Baby® and is currently the company’s President.

Karin has taken Ah Goo Baby from an idea into a global business, currently having her company's products sold in more than 400 boutiques worldwide, along with larger retailers such as Buy Buy Baby (by Bed Bath & Beyond) and Nordstrom.
