Dress Your Kids like Jessica Alba’s or Kourtney Kardashian’s at Waukee Mom’s Web Store

Malisa MacNab wanted to create an online destination for parents looking for an alternative to the on-the-rack same old, same old.

From a news release:

A fashion loving, full-time Waukee mom, Malisa MacNab, has launched an online retail store that offers consumers the chance to buy cutting edge children’s apparel from leading designers from one central hub.

MiniJoops’ featured designers  include Beau Loves, Little Boogaweezin, Mini Rodini, Petitbo, Prefresh, RAYGUN, Thief&Bandit, Tiny Whales, Tutu Du Monde, and Wovenplay.

"I was constantly falling in love with unique children's apparel pieces via numerous online avenues,” MacNab said in a news release. “None of these designs were locally accessible and I was continuously recommending these finds to my international friends. I wanted to create a destination for unique fashion brands to streamline the online shopping experience."

And so the idea behind MiniJoops, which means "Small Kisses" in Laotian, was born.

"If you're looking for the latest children's fashion trends, want to try something unique for your child that every other kid doesn't have, or maybe you'd like to start a fashion trend of your own for your little ones, then you're going to love MiniJoops new, fun children's clothing brands," MacNab said.
