The Traveling Tot

I opened The Traveling Tot in the spring of 2010 with the intention of making and selling children's items as a hobby. Over the last 14 years my shop is grown more than I could have ever imagined and has become more of a full-time job than just a hobby. I began with a just a few travel neck pillows and since then I have added over a dozen different types of children and baby items to my stock. In 2017 I made the decision to branch off from The Traveling Tot to open another Etsy shop, Sleepy Dust Designs, for my baby items and baby carrier accessories. I love making my own patterns and finding a new way to make each item. I pride myself on quality and I believe that each item should be made with care and attention to detail, as I would if making it for my own children. I would not have this business if it wasn't something that I truly loved to do, and that is what motivates me every day. I strive to do my best, from making high quality and long-lasting products to providing excellent customer service and fast shipping.
