When companies ask me to review or
represent their products,
I always research their brand thoroughly and look over reviews from previous customers to make sure their products meet my personal standards and they must fit in well with my family’s day to day routines.
These are a few of them.

Quite Often I am asked to either review brands or work with companies. More times than not, I feel like that most companies don’t align with my particular brand, so I pass.
HOWEVER, every now and then a business comes along that stands out from the rest.
It is always great when I am surprised by either:
the functionality, the simplicity
or the clever ingenuity.
When Nest diapers reached out to me, all I had to read was “BIODEGRADABLE DIAPERS”
and I was sold!

When my husband and I were expecting our first baby we originally wanted cloth diapers because of the waste each diaper produces. We didn’t want to add to our own carbine footprint.
The more I read about cloth diapers, the more I started to really second guess the idea.
5 years ago, there weren’t diapers that were biodegradable. At least, not that I knew of.
Well, friends, the future is here.

Recently, we went out of town and my parents watched our 10 month old little man. I had a few packages of Nest diapers so I sent her one to use. I was happy to hear how much she liked them after a few days of using them. Not only are they perfectly functional, but the peace of mind in knowing that they are biodegradable is awesome!
After over a month of wearing them I have only found two minor issues.
1.) Make sure when putting on your baby’s final diaper before bed that the Velcro tabs are securely fastened. I am thinking that since the diaper is made from natural products, the Velcro is easier to come undone in the night when baby rolls around.
Just to clarify, this only happened twice in the whole duration of us using these awesome diapers!
2.) If your baby has a very wet diaper in the morning from the night before, expect the swollen materials inside the diaper to rupture. This happened pretty often. It wasn’t a terrible mess, but it was definitely something that happened regularly.
But again, to clarify, other diapers do the same thing! It just may happen a bit more frequently.
However, the feeling of decreasing your family’s pollution by using these diapers makes it quite easy to overlook these two minor issues.

As time goes by, I am amazed at the sheer ingenuity companies like Nest have to make a product that is so environmentally friendly. At around $65 dollars a case it won’t break the bank either!
“OllieJay launched in 2019, founded by Michelle Orrantia (that's me!).
I'm a wife, mom of 2 and small business owner, and that's what I love. Many pregnant women have this "nesting phase" where they clean their houses, set up a crib, buy onesies, all to prepare for the big day. My "nesting phase" has always included starting a business, which is why I opened a Dollhouse Themed Tearoom seven months pregnant with my first, and launched OllieJay with my second!
Olivia Jolie is the name sake of the brand and my oldest baby. She is the girly-est type of girl, always wanting to dress up, put on makeup, jewelry, and tiaras. She's basically Fancy Nancy. Her passion for all the pretty things helped lead me to this journey, as I designed and created the perfect twirl dress. The fabric had to be soft, the length just right and the cut to flow beautifully. After months of research and developing and working with manufacturers, we created the perfect dress!
Now we're so thrilled and excited to share our designs with you, and hope they will become your favorite dresses too!”

Modern-Boho Amber Jewelry For A Bright Life!
“I am a mom, creator, entrepreneur, boho lover, curator of natural beauty, and health seeker. I first dipped my toe into amber teething necklaces when my son was waking every two hours. He never suffered from teething symptoms during the day, so I shrugged it off and told myself he was just a light sleeper. I eventually started to lose my mind (I know you’ve been there, friends). I had been making teething necklaces for others, so I decided to make one for him. Like magic, he slept through the night. It was incredibly fulfilling to give myself and my child this gift of sleep with something both beautiful and natural.
I have since welcomed into my life Baltic Amber’s broad spectrum of holistic benefits, and I’m filled with gratitude that this helps provide for my family. My passion is to help other families reduce the chemicals they’re exposed to, which is why I have been inspired to create amber necklaces and amber bracelets for everyone, including older children, adults, and breastfeeding pairs.
I love the function of genuine Baltic Amber, but I also love its beauty and variety. I want each piece I make to speak to someone’s personality and unique life beat. Life is too short to be boring! Why not adorn ourselves with beautiful, holistic, modern-boho amber jewelry for a bright life!“

I am usually very hesitant when approached to review products. I feel like in order for me to be honest and helpful, the product needs to meet my expectations while also appealing to my girls and becoming a product that they genuinely like. With that said, KidloLand met all the guidelines that I look for!
KidloLand is a learning app filled with nursery rhymes, songs, games and activities for your phone, or tablet that will keep your little one engaged and learning while having fun at the same time!
I have created my Top 5 reasons why I love it and I am sure you will too!

Everything with KidloLand is so simple! From downloading the app to setting it up- it’s user friendly and doesn’t take much time at all!
Once you have set it up and are ready to begin, all you have to do is find the activity you want and click it! It’s that easy!

It is amazing to see just how fast it took our daughter to start swiping and tapping the different games! She slides the fruit into the barrels just as fast as I can! I love being impressed more and more each time she figures out a new game- And she loves to see my expressions when she knows she has figured it out. It is absolutely adorable!
Flying is usally a real pain- especially if you have to travel with a baby and a toddler. KidloLand really helps ease the tension and the boredom of commuting for a toddler. I was able to have peace of mind knowing that our daughter could pass the time playing these games while learning and having fun at the same time. Before we knew it, we were at our destination!
It didn’t take long at all for Alli Mae to become excited when it was time to play KidloLand! All I needed to do was pick up our iPad and she knew exactly what time it was! Not only did she become excited at the thought of playing the games, but also when she would complete the tasks. It would make me excited just to see her excitement!
With everything I have listed above about KidloLand- I must say “Achievement” is the most important. Sure- it is simple to set up, teaches coordination, convenient when we travel, exciting to play, but the biggest reward by far is to watch our little girl’s face when she senses what achievement feels like after she has accomplished each task. Her face lights up and starts clapping and waving at the different characters that tell her “Good Job”.
There is no other feeling comparable to this when a parent can witness that!
Watching our daughters progression in the few weeks we have experienced KidloLand, excites me beyond measure for her future because I know now how excited she gets when when she has the feeling of achievement!
