Don't Spit The Dummy: A Success Story ~ The Bub Cafe

Its amazing what great inventions and ideas are born out of sheer frustration. More and more Mums across the globe are coming up with some pretty darn clever ways to make life in the chaos and turbulence of motherhood a lot more simpler and easier on themselves---and bub.

This week's Success Story Mum found her inspiration trailing after her young children. Amid her frustration, a bright idea suddenly clicked and a new business venture blossomed.

Meet Danae Howard, busy Mum of four. This is her inspiring story:

How it all started...

As a busy mother of four children, I understand the stress and hassle of constantly picking up baby's dummys, teddies and blankets, as well as loosing their bottles and other every day items. Hi I am Danae, I created Dummy Tied, which I absolutely LOVE.

Dummy clips have been a life saver for me as a mother of young children, and so my business idea blossomed when I decided to share my personalised dummy clip idea with other Mums. I originally started making clips at home and for my friends but then before I knew it, it demand was huge.

I started a page on Facebook and it has really taken off from there, I do markets, shopping centres and have just opened up my own website. Everyone loves the different ribbons and individuality my hand-crafted clips offer each child, rather than having the same old boring plastic chain from a supermarket!

I usually try to do a lot of my creating at night when the kids are in bed or on the weekends when hubby is home and watching the kids. I’ll admit however, it’s not all bells and whistles though, its hard work juggling the family schedule plus my business, but I love it and I would not give it up.

I love talking to other mums and getting all the lovely feed back on how helpful my products have been. It makes it all worth it.
