The Babesta Beat
Join Amy as she talks with Jennifer Cattaui, the Founder and CEO of Babesta, a very hip children’s store located online and in lower Manhattan. With the baby and child market radiating traditional pinks and blues, Babesta was born in 2004 to rebel against genderized styles that seemed to stray from Jenn’s aesthetic. As a new mom herself, she sought to give babies (and their families) some cooler options where they could show some attitude and have some fun. They introduced black onesies, band tees, slogan tees, and a range of fashion, with nods to art, design, and culture. Today Babesta is thriving and a valuable resource whether you have a little human or just want to purchase for one… Babesta will make you the cool parent, aunt or uncle, or friend.   RESOURCES   Guest Websites:https://www.babesta.com/| NY NOW:https://nynow.com      | NY NOW Podcast Page:https://nynow.com/podcast      Thank you for podcasting with NY NOW!
