Exciting Product of the Week

Name of product(s): Tuscany and Corsica Gliders

Department: Furnishings

Company(ies): Dutailier

Price(s): $1,463 for fabric
              $1,688 for leather match


Function(s): A nursery glider to give mom a comfortable place to nurse and get baby to sleep.

Why is it exciting/interesting: These new additions to the Dutailier family are a stray from anything Dutailier has previously done. Their two new gilders have a sleeker, more modern look. They definitely kept their customers in mind while designing these chairs. Not only did they make them cleaner looking they also made them smaller and narrower than their gliders from their Prestige Collection. They also simplified choosing the gliders by choosing to make them with all the extra features possible. The chairs come with glide, swivel, recline and a pop up footrest but also kept their famous customization by providing an abundant amount of fabric choices. Also Moms to be and More is excited to be able to offer customers a whole swatch book of fabrics from Dutailier’s adult collection. Customers can now choose more adult looking fabrics for their nursery gliders for only a slight added cost. We have both gliders on our sales floor so feel free to pop in and give them a test run.

 College Crib/Bed SALE !!



















 From April 16th - May 3rd you will receive 10% off 
 all College Beds and Cribs


About College:
College Woodwork began in the early 1900's as a woodworking class for students attending Lornedale Academy. For both philosophical and economic reasons, work was viewed as an essential component of education. By 1920, the woodworking class had grown into a business producing small household items, playpens, potty chairs, ladders and ironing boards. Furniture was a natural extension of the product line, and by the early 1960's, production focused on simple furniture, designed for timeless style and robust quality. 

Much has changed in the past century. Equipment and processes have been updated, markets are international, and competition is global. Despite the changes, College Woodwork adheres to the core values established a century ago. It remains committed to producing quality products at a reasonable price. Still affiliated with the school, College employs some students who earn an income while they learn values and skills that will remain with them throughout their lives. The lessons they learn reflect knowledge born of nearly a century.

MADE IN: 

- Cribs are cut in Slovenia. Constructed and finished in Canada
- Case Goods (ie dressers) are made in Canada
 
MADE OF: 

-Cribs: sustainable European beechwood
-Case Goods (ie dressers): Canadian birch

Why is this your favourite product in the store?

“It is money well spent on a bike that is well designed. This New Zealand bike evolves with the child’s different stages of development. Starting at age 1 as a tike, it converts to a running bike as the child grows and by age 4 to 5 years old the frame is flipped, making it even more useful for older children.”

Who are you? : All Moms to be and More Staff

What do you like? Cloud B Giant Stuffed Animals

Why is this your favourite product in the store?

The staff members of Moms to Be and More got a great surprise this week. The Giant Cloud B animals finally arrived! We first received a Giant Gentle Giraffe a few weeks back. He quickly became a loved member of the furnishings department. As parents and children walked up the stairs and saw the giant giraffe faces lit up and people always wanted to touch or hold him. We also loved moving him around the department sitting him in corners, on gliders and on beds. We soon looked into what other giant animals Cloud B had to offer. We were ecstatic to find out that there was also a giant Sleep Sheep and a giant Twilight Turtle. We ordered both right away and received them this week. As staff members of Moms to Be and More made their way up to the furnishings department each person wanted to pick up, hug or cuddle one of these giant animals. Everyone became like a kid again at the sight of these characters. We also began to notice that everyone seemed to have a favourite. These stuffed animals are cute and incredibly cuddly. They’re a great gift and will be a great addition to any nursery. Come up to the furnishings department and see why everyone can agree that this is our favourite product in the store !

Exciting Product of the Week


Department: Maternity

Company(ies): C-panty





Price(s):
C-panty 2pk Classic Incision Care panties $80
C-panty 2pk Classic Incision Care Panties (progression) $64
C-panty Tummy Cut Incision Care $55

Function(s):
An undergarment that assists moms with the healing after a Cesarean; it aids in scarring, swelling and tenderness.

Why is it exciting/interesting: 









C-panty Classic- This undergarment mildly compresses incision area which helps to control swelling. It also has a silicone panel which soothes and hydrates the area. Both features help moms to recover comfortably. This undergarment in particular is best for early post-op recovery.









C-panty Progression- This undergarment is best used for continuing recovery after a c-section for when you still have days of discomfort. It is also designed to help with C-shelf (c-section scarring). The added feature of this undergarment is the shaper. It uses moderate compression for shaping and support.  












C-panty Tummy Cut Care- This undergarment is designed to use gentle compression to aid incision area, midsection symptoms and post baby belly. It does all of this without the bulk that a binder usually has but still has the signature silicone panel. This panty is seamless and cut to just below the ribs with a full rear and gentle waistband.

Based on post-pregnancy pant size
Small: fits sizes 0 - 4
