The lovely Nichola of www.idesignbaby.com is our mumpreneur feature this beautiful sunny morning & she brings with her a FAB giveaway!
Who are you?
My name is Nichola & I run i Designbaby wear at http://www.idesignbaby.com/
What do you do?
I make baby wear that customers can personalise, design and customise specifically for their needs. My items are very affordable and great quality. I have just expanded into doing children’s & adults t-shirts and will also baby headbands & beautiful tutus over the next fortnight.
When did you establish your business?
I started in early 2010 when I was pregnant and off work with SPD
What made you start your own business?
I was off work with SPD and had to take early maternity leave. I realised that I didn’t miss my job one bit and didn’t want to go back. This coincided with me searching high and low for personalised baby suits & vests for my bump but everything seemed so expensive so I decided to make my own. I thought they came out great and showed them to friends and then orders started coming in.
What do you love about working for yourself?
I love being able to offer a great customer service that is very personal without of rigid rules and regulations that you have to abide by when working for somebody else. I always hated not being able to help people because of work rules! I enjoy planning my time and helping people get great items for their babies.
Is there anything you do not like about working for yourself?
NO!
What advice would you give to a Mum considering starting her own business?
