2024 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Baby Gear Rentals

Baby Gear Group

Location

“We have been using Baby Gear Group since my little one was an infant, and he is now 2.5 years old! We love that we can keep trying new toys, strollers, etc, and keep renting the ones he loves, without the hassle of returns and exchanges and frankly wasting a lot of money. It’s a great deal, and I love being able to support a woman-of-color owned business. Bo is wonderful to work with and always has helpful recommendations!”

– Emily H.

2024 FAMILY FAVORITE HONOREE:

BabyQuip: Emily Marks

Paoli

“Emily works hard to make things easy for those who require her services. She is very professional and honest, and has the best selection of equipment. Emily goes out of her way to make sure her clients have a smooth transaction..”

– Bonnie M.

2024 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Baby Proofer

Safer Babies

Oaks

“We are so happy with the work that Joe did. We weren’t sure if our house was going to be too complicated to baby proof fully. Joe was able to assess our house via a video call which was really convenient. He even pointed out some baby proofing areas that we wouldn’t have thought of before. Joe listened to our concerns and was able to come up with the best plan for our needs. The estimate provided was very reasonable. We highly recommend Joe for any baby proofing needs you may have! I feel confident in the safety of our home!.”

– Step O.

2024 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Childbirth Class

Philly HypnoBirthing

Location

“Philly Hypnobirthing was an amazing five week birthing class! Estee is so informative and intelligent, her soothing voice and warm presence helped calm our nerves as we prepared for birth! We have recommended her to our best friends and would continue to keep recommending her work to all pregnant women and their partners!”

– Kellie R.

2024 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Childcare Agency

The Nanny Share Network

Paoli

“The nanny share network was a lifesaver when it came to finding our nanny! They did all the leg work for me and truly cared about finding us the perfect match. We couldn’t be happier with the nanny they found for us.”

– Katie K.

2024 FAMILY FAVORITE HONOREE:
Childcare Agency

MBR Nanny Network

Oaks

“MBR is the agency to use if you are looking for help finding care for your child(ren) in the Philadelphia area. I am so grateful to Marissa and her team for helping me and my family transition to a schedule that allows us to maximize our work/home time. The best aspect of MBR is the accessibility and responsiveness of Marissa. Being away from your baby is so tough, and trusting someone to care for your baby is tougher still. I appreciated being a part of the process in finding someone I could trust. Marissa’s experience and candidness are what make her so special. I am so thankful!.”

– Kate B.

2024 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Childcare Center

Avenue of the Arts KinderCare

Location

“They are more than just a daycare. They are a family support system. Our 2-year-old daughter was having speech issues. KinderCare worked closely with us, guided us and led us through the challenge. They identified that she had a hearing problem and guided us on what to do next. After the right treatment and additional tutoring through the center, she’s now fully verbal and won’t stop talking! Incredible success story. They also fully potty trained her, which is incredible (we just followed their lead). Also, because they have a chef onsite, our daughter is now a more eclectic eater and less picky. They’ve transformed our family and we are forever grateful. They are the best daycare center in Philly – hands down. No one compares to their skill, knowledge, compassion and dedication.”

– Lauren G.

2024 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Doula

Northern Star Doula LLC

Paoli

“Northern Star Doula cared for our preemie NICU twins from two months old to seven months old overnight. Nicole Todd was knowledgeable, calming, and wonderful with our sons. By the time Nicole was done, the boys were sleep trained and at age 5, they still sleep through the night religiously. I would recommend Northern Star Doula and Nicole Todd for anyone looking for a doula.”

– Rachel K.

2024 FAMILY FAVORITE HONOREE:
Doula

Day and Night Doula

Oaks

“Kate is a dedicated doula. We loved her support for our family and couldn’t have gotten through the first few months without her guidance.”

– Aliyah T.

2024 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Exercise Program for New & Expecting Moms

Active Mom Fitness

Oaks

“This organization is run by Ashley Reid, who is an absolutely magnificent trainer with a specialization in women’s health and especially postpartum health. She does an amazing job of helping women exercise while they are pregnant, helping them, put their bodies back together after they have given birth, and continuing with an exercise regime afterwards. She not only provides an extremely welcoming community, but also very useful advice, and a place that women feel welcome and can talk. There’s nothing else like this, and she deserves recognition..”

– Ada K.
