After dropping my children at school today I was just giving some thought to what some of our clever MOM's do and so I thought I would just name a few here today.

1. Caitlin Truman-Baker (Mom to pre-schooler Connor & baby Jasper) is a graphic designer based in Plettenberg Bay. Caitlin has also designed the new African Serenity baby sling called Coo&Co. This design has been refined from an age old concept. Designed to keep you baby close and comfortable, while keeping you hands free and chic.

2. Janet Forest (Mom to Pre-schooler Julia) also a graphic designer. Janet and her husband, Dennis, own and manage the wonderful Eagle Encounters Centre. This is a bird of prey rehabilitation, educational and Eco-Tourism Centre. This is well worth a visit and our children have been here often on school outings! How lucky we are to have all this on our doorstep!

3. Willemijn Murray (Mom to pre-schooler Femke) owns a delicious shop in town called Willemijn Murray. Willemijn is Dutch and has great fun sourcing and making objects for her shop - she makes the most beautiful jewellery!

4. Kim van Rensberg (Mom to pre-schooler Zoe and Ruby in grade 6) is also a design mom. Kim runs her own business called Clean Living Interior Design but has also just launched her new yummy product called "Oh my goodness". These are delicous non dairy, non wheat and raw food products that are excellent for lunch boxes for the kids!

5. Laura Jamieson Chatz (Mom to Ayla in grade 1 and Noah in grade 2) is another design mom who has a background in ceramic design, decor styling and glass blowing. Laura's Luma Glass Studio is in Plettenberg Bay where she produces amazing jewellery and even chandeliers.

These a just five of our wonderful Mom's! We are so lucky to have such talented people around us. I will post some more of our other parents on the blog soon. Enjoy your day!
