Barefoot Baby Boutique…Princess Anne, Maryland…Delaware Beaches…Ocean City, Maryland…
This little piggy went to market; this little piggy stayed home; this little piggy had a bit of meat; and, this little piggy had none.
I can almost hear my children’s laughter so many years ago when this nursery rhyme was repeated time and time again.
This is the feeling I got when I stepped into Barefot Baby Boutique, 11779 Somerset Ave., Princess Anne, MD 21853. This is one of the shops inside the newly restored historic Independence Hall Building, in the center of this charming town. I wrote a post about it last Sunday so you can check that out. No sense in repeating myself. The telepone is 410-621-5398. The website is www.barefootbabyboutique.com. The e-mail address is info@barefootbabyboutique.com. You can also find them in Facebook. Hours are: Mondays and Tuesdays, by appt. only. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, 10-6 and Saturdays 10-3.
The store is owned by Martha Ogburn, RN, MS. For many years she was a neonatal nurse. She is an educator, an author and a family child specialist. In making her decision to take this new venture, she took into consideration that she was aware, more than the average person, of the concerns that new mothers may have. She is more than happy to share her resources, so please visit the website for this information.
Barefoot Baby Boutique celebrates, as everyone should, the birth of a new child. It is a commemoration of pregnancy, birth and beyond.
For that young person in your life, Martha, has been able to bring into her store a wonderland of toys, unique hangers, and books.
The gifts are special; one and only. The picture books are so beautiful and she carries affordable designer cribs.
In looking through her shop I could not help to stare at the delivery dress; never seen one. It is a dress that is more stylish and it is worn during the delivery. It is low in the back, in order to easily reach in case you need an epidural. I mentioned that to a friend and she said she could have cared less what she was wearing with all the pain she was going through. We all have had different experiences, don’t you think?
Did you know that you can recycle your wedding dress and make it nto a Christening gown? Well, Barefoot Baby Boutique can help you do that. Just like they can help you with baby classes for new and expectant mothers, as well as seminars and events. Again, all that is in their website. They have so much information including on-line shopping and baby registry awards. If you spend $150 on your registry items then you will receive 20 Baby Bucks, redeemable for store merchandise. They even have a Barefoot Baby Blog.
This store is so much fun. It is a happy store. Martha was great and so friendly. I felt like I had known her for a long time.
Have a good one…..
