do – and find a way to continue working whilst staying creative and passionate at the same time.” With a combined history in both retail and floral design, their store was born out of a desire to create a space that was beautiful and that could allow incredible local talent an opportunity to showcase and sell their wonderful products. “We couldn’t think of a better place to create this than at The Mushroom Farm – a true hidden gem in the Upper Highway area,” says Lisa. “Fast forward two months, and we have been blown away by what we, with the support of our incredible brands, have been able to achieve. We love this hub that we have so very carefully curated, and we believe in each and every brand that we represent.” Heading into the festive season, Jane and Lisa have many exciting projects in the pipeline. “We cannot wait to share them with you,” says Lisa.

A safe haven FOR PREGNANT AND NEW MAMAS

As doulas, childbirth educators, teachers and infant massage instructors, Samantha Salter and Natascha Elsmore-Cary have created and launched a long-loved dream. “This is a holistic accumulation of professionals and happiness where our sleepdeprived, hard-working, baby-home-husbandwork-juggling women can come to be loved, boosted, cared for and emotionally rejuvenated. We have created a space that not only nurtures the child, but also the mother,” says Natascha. At Bub & Co. Mum and Baby Lifestyle in Kloof you can expect a charming coffee shop with an enchanting garden, a baby boutique with all the latest styles and trends, antenatal classes, yoga and more. “You can bring your baby here for vaccinations and weekly weigh-ins, and get advice on breastfeeding, weaning, women’s health and your baby’s sleeping patterns,” says Samantha. “We even have a therapy garden suite with an OT, Speech Therapist and Play Therapist all on hand for your developing child.” When you’re having a bad day, sitting down with someone who truly knows and understands the challenges you’re facing can be a life-saver. And why not have your nails and lashes done, while a qualified childminder cares for your little one safely nearby? Lastly, there’s also supportive Bub Club mum and baby stimulation classes all in full swing. FOR MORE INFO: 076 329 0217; info@bubclubsa. com; www.bubclubsa.com
