Like EcoBambino, most of her products are non-synthetic and designed for comfort, with Lynch having retained the majority of her suppliers. The store sells blankets, stuffed animals, educational games, toys and clothes.
“As a mom, I really encourage people to come in and allow this to be a safe space. Allow it to be a place where they can shop freely without judgment, like if their child is crying or they’re fussy, and I’m engaging with them, I’m playing with them, and not because it’s for business.”
In addition to gift-y items, Lynch also wants JuneBugs to be a place where moms can go in a pinch for things like bibs ($12) and belly oil ($22.99).
“What I wanted was a store that wasn’t just a gift boutique,” Lynch says. “I wanted it where, if a mama was at home, and she’s like, ‘Oh my goodness, I ran out of something, or I need a bottle ($10 for a 5-ounce) real quick.’ She can run down and grab it.”
