Tara Bloom, owner of this online boutique based in Portland, Oregon, wanted to create the leading, most trusted destination for women who are celebrating how gorgeous they are as moms-to-be and moms. I never felt more beautiful, healthy or feminine than when I was pregnant nearly 12 years ago with my daughter. To give her the best start in life, I wanted to make the best choices possible. But over a decade ago, that was easier said than done. It was hard to find products that I trusted to be safe for me and my baby. Even harder was trying to find products that were both trustworthy and appealing to me as a consumer. Most natural products at that time were unconcerned with aesthetics: they looked terrible, smelled worse, and I didn't feel very attractive when I used them.
Tara draws inspiration from herbal healing traditions, midwifery, the environmental movement, modern medicine, and classic style when looking for brands that fit with our "maternity evolved, naturally" criteria. Many of Maternitique's products are organic, most are all-natural, and those that aren't--and they have their reasons--are non-toxic. What they all have in common is that they're made to help you feel great--beautiful, sensual, healthy, confident--in your journey into motherhood. Because they've all been conscientiously created for this special time, women shopping at Maternitique can feel confident in making the choices that best fit their lifestyle. Most of all, I draw on the joy I've experienced in being a mother so I look for products that honor the beauty and sacredness of motherhood. Our products are respectful in that they work with your body's natural abilities to nurture new life, and they support your desire to look and feel beautiful at this time in your life, without putting your baby at risk.
The pregnancy, birth, and baby care products Tara finds for Maternitique are designed by smart, stylish, professional women who have found pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood to be among their most amazing and proudest life experiences. It's my hope that Maternitique not only helps women to enjoy *shopping* for pregnancy and birth, but to truly enjoy becoming mothers. It's hard to narrow down the best-sellers or favorites because we truly have a star-quality selection of brands. Probably our best-selling brand is Belli, a fast-growing company that many women have heard of because Brad Pitt bought those items for Angelina Jolie when she was pregnant with the twins, and the babies also received the Belli Baby skin care items, too. The Mambino Organics line is developed by a Hollywood aesthetician, and we're almost ready to announce our very own celebrity mama who's just in love with the vedaMAMA brand she buys from us.
