Hi, My name is Lynn Saponaro and I proudly opened Mommy-n-Me in the fall of 2005 in the downtown Harleysville area and have quickly moved to a bigger location in the heart of Souderton in 2008. With a backround in retail sales, marketing and visual merchandising, I dove in full speed ahead and learned a few things along the way.
My business grew within a year. We needed more space, so we moved down the street never compromising our prices despite the fact that we were in a larger store. This year we added a second store in the Pocono tourist area, which my mother and father enjoy running. I am happy to serve both communities with our great stores as well as being adamant about giving back to various children's charities throughout the year. We raise money for many children's charities, breast cancer, cystic fibrosis just to name a few. Every profit dollar by the sale of our Webkinz products is donated to a different children's charity every month. I love to be in a position to help fund these charities to aid in finding a cure.
A little about me...I am a happy mom of 3 stinkin' cute young men, Michael 14, Matt 12 and Tyler, 3. They are the reason I started my store. They are the driving force behind my ambition to keep the store's flawless reputation & popularity going strong. Anything is possible with the unconditional love of your children. They inspire me every day of my life.
My store's mission is simple. Great clothing, baby gear, toys, etc at reasonable prices. I am meticulous when it comes to selecting items for the store. The selection process includes extensive research for recalls. I am proud to be picky. That's why the store is a great success. I am happy to say that I've found the perfect balance for pricing for my customers and my vendors. Customers come to my store because they know they will find nice clothes and other items that look new and they know our prices are always awesome. Vendors flock to the store because they know what I will select and they will be paid well for their items.
Thank You
I'd like to say thank you to all my faithful customers and vendors. If it weren't for you, Mommy-n-Me wouldn't be half the success it is today.
Thank you to my parents, Bob and Nancy. You've raised me to be strong, go for what I want while always keeping my integrity. You've been awesome parents in every way. I could never thank you enough for what you've done and still do to this day for me and the boys. I love you bunches!
Thank you to my boys. You've sacrificed some of our time in the beginning of all of this. The entire time, taking it in stride and understanding why. Know that everyday I step in the store, its for you. You guys rock and I love you bunches!
Thank you to my grandmother. I feel your presence in my life everyday and I miss you terribly. You are an inspiration to me for the sacrifices you made in your life and for raising 4 kids on your own. I get my strength from knowing you.
Jamie, Stacey, Linda, Sheri, Shelley. You are the meaning of true friendship and family. I can always trust you when others in my life, in the past, have been untrustworthy. Thank you for always being there listening to my crazy ideas, never taking advantage of our friendship and just letting me be me and loving me anyway!!! Muah...love ya!
