We had the good fortune of connecting with Madelyn and Rebecca Love and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Madelyn and Rebecca, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
We are a Mother/Daughter shop, working towards making mom life a tad easier. Not only did we want to provide for other moms, but we wanted a way to provide for our own families while still being present in our kids’ life.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
We knew that there had to be a better way to keep up with the never ending problem of finding a burp cloth. Together we came up with a unique design that allows moms to always be within arms reach to a burp cloth. The Piper Cloth is an attachable organic burp cloth/nursing cover. We wanted to ensure that our Piper Cloth could be used in every stage of parenthood. Some ways our customers & supporters have used our Piper Cloth include: sweat cloth for yoga or working out, cart cover, toddler messes (boogers & dirty hands), some even use it to dry their hair or use it as a make-up cloth. We’ve even had a Physical Therapist/Massage Therapist who uses it on a daily basis to keep their hands dry & clean for clients. The uses are endless and we enjoy seeing it used in new ways.

Our shop has been open for a year and we have learned that keeping positive is key. Seeing parents use our product and truly love it, is what keeps us going. We value our customers and love the community they bring. This is more than just a small shop for us. It’s a way for us to connect with other parents, so we can all experience the beautiful messes of parenthood.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
We love to start our day with Richard Walkers, a breakfast place in La Jolla. Afterwards we take a stroll to the beach and visit the seals. We also love to hike up in Torrey Pines, and eat lunch a Carolines Sea Side cafe. Little Italy is one of our favorite places to visit which also has Samburgers & Graze by Sam, great places to eat dinner and catch some live music! Dessert would have to be more inland, Hans & Harry’s has the best pastries and desserts. San Diego has the best outdoor activities, like Coronado island and so many good places to eat. If you’re a foodie, this is the place for you!
