A New Store Needs Social Proof

“The Baby's Brew was created from an idea from very frustrated parents. My husband and I are active and travel often. Once our daughter was born, I quickly came to the realization that traveling with an infant was extremely difficult.”

“One of the biggest struggles we had was our daughter refused to drink anything that was not warm. Trying to find warm water when out and about didn’t seem like that difficult of a task, until we tried to. If we did find someone who could warm water up for us, it would always take forever or be scalding hot from the coffee machine. When you have a crying baby, time is of the essence.”

“We were always concerned when going out and honestly missed out on a lot of things just because we were scared we wouldn’t be able to find warm water near us.”

The couple went out searching for a small and portable battery operated warmer, but they could not find one. All that was left to do was to make one.

The Baby's Brew can heat up any liquid to the desired temperature in 10-15 mins and most of the time, less than that if you have a room temp water/breastmilk. The slow heat mechanism is essential for breastmilk to ensure that nutrition is not compromised.

“Fast forward to today, we have poured our heart and soul into The Baby’s Brew. Not only does it heat water, but it also doubles as formula storage as well. No more measuring out formula before leaving the house and no more wasting formula! The Baby's Brew is the first ever battery-powered bottle warmer.”

Tell us about your brand! When did you launch, where are you headquartered, what moved you to start your business?
“The Baby's Brew when I saw a need that wasn’t being met for parents. Our baby had extreme reflux and could not keep any liquid down that wasn’t warm. So going out was nearly impossible.”

“We are currently stationed in San Diego but are forever moving because my husband is in the military. Fun fact: everyone who works for The Baby's Brew is a military spouse!”

The Baby’s Brew is running their store on Shopify and has a sizable Instagram following.
