My New Favorite!


Ta-Da!!! Happy Heiny's One-Size Snaps! And my first impression is how trim these are. They did a great job with the Aplix/Velcro version, but snaps make laundry duty so much better.
Don't get me wrong velcro definitly has it's place(when toddlers are running mid diaper change)
But I am a snap lover. The new colors and prints are so cute too. It still comes with 2 great microfiber inserts! All bundled up for only $24!

Exciting News!

We have been on the hunt for an insurance company that would allow us to sell
carseats and at last we have found one! So we officially can sell used carseats.
Bring them on in we just ask that the expiration date is still valid, the seat is in perfect
working condition, no twisted straps and all pieces and the manual is included.
The carseat must not have been recalled nor ever been in an accident, and is also very clean.
We will be checking for recalls and all the specs.
If we get overwhelmed with the amount we are getting in we may take names down for a waitlist as most of you know our storage space is limited.
Remember items priced at higher than $40.00 you get 60% of the sale.


Right now all Blue Tags in store are 25% off and the Pink Tags are 50% off.

If you are needing a swing or excersaucer we have many in to choose from.

To Trick or Treat?

If your a parent and not looking forward to the children bouncing off the walls for the
next week, here's a great idea some family friends shared with us.
They allow their kids to Trick and Treat as much as they want and when the candy arrives home
they buy the candy from the kids and the money goes towards a new toy instead.
Pretty great idea!

So have a ultra spooky and safe Halloween!

The store will be closed at 4:00 pm so we can have fun too!

Imaginative Natural Play

Play is an important factor in all areas of child development – physical, social, emotional and cognitive. It is increasingly noted that children today seem to be losing their ability to play. Children want to be entertained and can’t seem to play on their own. And children who do play are acting out scenes they’ve seen on television and in movies, not playing out of their own imaginations.

What can parents do? By selecting suitable toys that can cultivate creative thinking and respects children’s need for actively involved creative play. Simple, open-ended, multi-purpose toys are the key. Toys that are not completely detailed allow children to use their imaginations. Those that allow children to decide how to play with it encourage creativity.
Toys that can be turned into many things facilitate abstract thinking. For example, Cloths and silks can be turned into capes, aprons and rivers. Dolls with simple features allow the child to decide if the baby is laughing, crying or sleeping.

Giving Thanks

Thanksgiving is the appointed time
for focusing on the good in our lives.
In each of our days,
we can find small blessings,
but too often we overlook them,
choosing instead to spend our time
paying attention to problems.
We give our energy
to those who cause us trouble
instead of those who bring peace.
Starting now,
let’s be on the lookout
for the bits of pleasure in each hour,
and appreciate the people
who bring love and light to everyone
who is blessed to know them.
You are one of those people.
On Thanksgiving, I’m thankful for you.
Happy Thanksgiving!

BC Wildlife almost forgotten

A few weeks ago we realized my daughter didn't know what a Marmot was. Hmmm and the marmot is a very important animal to our province. We then realized she didn't know much about the wildlife in BC. She know's all about Zebra's and Hippo's, Panda's and Parrots, but you ask her what a Wolverine is and, no clue, to be honest neither did I!
So when we were contacted by Kermode kids it made sence to carry the first of their great products to come.
The Go Fish, British Columbia Wildlife addition, is beautiful, descriptive and real.
My little one is right into games right now so we are playing this a few times a day.

Best part of it all...this Mom run company is from Kamloops BC!

There is a snap in soaker that is bamboo topped with a layer of white Minkee. Extra Bamboo inserts are sold separately so you can change for a new one when soiled and continue using the cover. Truly the best of both worlds.

Minkee fabric is SO soft that you will find it hard to resist touching it! It is definitely addictive!!

There may be alot of babies this fall not wearing pants! As these diapers are way to nice!

To top it all off, they are made by our friends at Jamtots in Victoria, BC

Come feel them for yourself!

Comox Valley Echo Today!



Green moms find their niche as diapering entrepreneurs


Comox Valley EchoPublished: Friday, September 05, 2008


Two local moms long passionate about making healthy choices for their families have opened up shop in Courtenay with a mind to make going green affordable and accessible for area families.
Offering FREE comprehensive cloth diapering seminars to local parents with new babies has made their new venture retooling Little Me Consignment into an eco-friendly one-stop baby shop an instant success
Sherry Turnbull, 29, and Kristina Jespersen, 33, took over Little Me at #105-2270 Cliffe Ave in June after long-time owner Dana Watson sold the business to spend more time with her family.
While the consignment portion of the business hasn't changed, Turnbull and Jespersen have empowered parents to think both green and local through the diapers and other new products offered.
They are busy building community and supporting family businesses by carrying a wide range of toys and baby gear in their Made by Mommas section (all Canadian) as well as bringing in the hottest green baby and toddler products including Haba Toys, Barefoot Books, WestCoastBaby and Veggie Shoes, keep things affordable with minimal markups.
Little Me's next diaper workshop is sure to draw a crowd.
Come check out why everyone is buzzing about this diminutive mom-owned consignment store and how easy they've made cloth diapering at 6 p.m. Monday, Sept. 15 or in on Oct. 20.
Updates and more details are available http://www.littlemeconsignment.blogspot.com/

New Choices for Night-Time Diapering

Sugar Peas Organic Hemp and Fleece 2 Size Fitted Diapers. Great for night times without the bulk. Not only for nightimes however, they are a great all round diaper, they are just very absorbant which is great for long nights. They have a fold out built in soaker for faster drying time.

The Bamboozle:

A fitted diaper consisting of 4 layers of bamboo fabric that is fantastically soft and beautiful! You will fall in love with this gorgeous, silky fabric - it's truly is irresistible!
Bamboo is a miraculous and eco-friendly fibre. It is a renewable resource with a very short growth cycle and it is grown without fertilizers or pesticides. In short it is the perfect environmental choice for diapers! Bamboo fibre also absorbs 60% more than cotton and is naturally antibacterial, breathable and cool. This is why the Bamboozle is such a slim fitting and ultra absorbent diaper. It requires less diaper changes, is comfortable for baby and not bulky under clothes! Again a great option for nights paired with a Bummis PUL, Fleece or Wool cover.

So no more disposibles at night!

Happy 1 Month Birthday!




1 month today! We can say we are very happy with the way things are going. We
have a pretty full store, everyday we are getting lots of great consignment items in.
And we are getting lots of great new items in as well.
Here are some of the great things on the way;http://www.barefoot-books.com/ This is what Barefoot Books cares about: first, they are convinced that it's never too early to introduce children to other cultures.They believe too that children can appreciate high-quality art, and enjoy the music as well as the meaning of from a very early age. They deserve the very best, and they are dependent on their elders to help them make connections between themselves and others, between nature and culture, between learning and living. They need their parents' and teachers' interest, involvement and time.

We are very excited about this line of books, we are bringing in baby board books, hardcovers and paperbacks. Hopefully they will arrive in the next week!



http://www.fuzzibunz.com/ One of the most loved and easiest to use diaper systems. An in house favourite as well. We are expecting to have everthing in order to have these this summer.




Swaddlebees diapers, another mom made diaper. This one is a fitted diaper 100% Organic cotton velour. Great for the newborn stage when you only want soft and organic on their fresh new skin. These diapers will require a cover but it still makes for an economical diaper method as you can Consign them back to us!!! No really they are great diapers, we expect this shipment to arrive just in time for our first diaper workshop at the end of July.

Well thanks again everyone for your support and giving us a first month to be proud of!

Consignment and Made By Mommas

So we have a pretty full store right now, so things are going well! We are accepting
Summer Consignment clothing right now. No appointment necessary, come down
anytime we are open. We have a long list of desired larger items;
Change Tables, Cribs, Bassinets, Bike Trailers, Double Stollers, Toddler Beds,
Children's Furniture, Excersaucers and Outdoor toys etc. If you have any of these
items bring them in or give us a call and make some money!



~Now I would also like to introduce our newest Made By Mom's Item;


The KASA BAG

Made in Royston, here in the Valley, by talented mom of 2, Sarah Stromquist.
These beautiful children's bags are made from recycled fabrics, some vintage, and some new organic fabrics. Sarah also accepts fabrics to custom made these handbags to match children's outfits or to honour a favourite clothing item. I think every toddler can appriciate carrying around a funky bag filled with all their "precious" take-a-longs.

Well have a great weekend everyone, we are open Saturdays 10-5....

Thank-You!


A Big hug and thanks to all our friends and family. We had a wonderful
first day! We have sales receipts to prove it ;)
This is really satisfying, researching the product feeling the excitment and
then when it flies off the shelves and our customers are happy, it really
hits it big for us. Thanks so much! And one more product to add to our
happiness is our beautiful Sugar Belly, the order came in today!
Come down and check them out. By far the hipest Maternity support belts out there...


See you all soon,

The 7 Day Count Down

7 More days. This little shop is pretty much turnkey, meaning we can step in
and start working, however, on our mission to change the Valley-Babystyle, we have
been working on changes and putting our heart and soul into this.
We are so excited! Some of the changes will be over time, but we will
have lots of new products instore for our first day June 10th.
Again if you are a crafter and you make quality baby related items, we
welcome you to bring them down to the store. See you all soon!
