Testimonials

    "The New York Baby Show was fantastic! My husband and I are expecting our first child in three weeks and have been searching for a changing pad tray to fit on top of a dresser we bought. While at the show we saw exactly what we needed at the Albee Baby booth. We spoke to the vendor and found out they have a store located in the city. After we left the show we went up to the store and ordered the piece. It was one of the last things on our list to get before our little girl arrives and we were so grateful to the show for helping us cross the item off our list."

Great job on the show!

    "Nannies of New York participated in the October New York Baby Show and we had a very positive overall experience. As a newer company in our space, we were looking to get our name and brand known in the new family circuit and our involvement in this show certainly afforded us the exposure we were looking for. We connected with a number of potential qualified new parent families as well as some of the other vendors involved that had synergy with our business and clientele. We look forward to participating in future events and shows!"

    "The show was an excellent opportunity for our brands and we will certainly be participating in your next event as we were very happy with the traffic and response the show brought to our booth and to our products! Your service, organization, and accommodations were instrumental in the success we had with consumers. The event brought about interest and awareness of our products and brands to the NYC Metropolitan Market and was instrumental in providing us with a strong launch for our Moodd stroller which will be available for purchase in January. The show was a great vehicle for introducing the new stroller to consumers."

    "Seeing Dr. Harvey Karp and being able to watch him demonstrate his techniques live in person was AMAZING. The man knows babies! After seeing him speak at the New York Baby Show and purchasing his book, we are now using his methods at home which has turned our fussy baby into a much more mellow little man who actually gets good chunks of sleep. "

Thank you Dr. Karp!
Deirdre Moore
