buybuy BABY Unveils Renewed Purpose to Support Parents Throughout Every Step of Their Journey
buybuy BABY says "welcome to parenthood" with expanded resources to help parents navigate through every moment - from prenatal to the first 1,000 days of their child's life
UNION, N.J., Sept. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebrating 25 years as the leading specialty baby retailer in North America, buybuy BABY® is saying 'welcome to parenthood™' by expanding resources that help parents navigate and develop their own parenting approach for what's best for their baby. From practical advice by parents and pros to on-demand digital content and educational opportunities, 'welcome to parenthood' is rooted in the belief that every parent deserves to feel supported as they navigate their unique parenting journey through each milestone, big and small.
buybuy BABY's 'welcome to parenthood' supports the retailer's mission to help parents cut through the clutter of information that abounds while raising children, allowing them to focus on solutions that meet their needs and develop unique parenting styles. The expanded platform is a key component of parent company Bed Bath & Beyond's strategy to transform the business by fostering long-lasting relationships with customers throughout their life.
"At the heart of our business, buybuy BABY is all about helping parents every step of the way. For the past 25 years, buybuy BABY has been committed to equipping parents with everything they need to navigate the parenthood journey," says John Hartmann, Chief Operating Officer of Bed Bath & Beyond and President of buybuy Baby. "As Bed Bath & Beyond continues its broader transformation, we are eager to invest, build and innovate to further grow the business. 'welcome to parenthood' is not just a promise of support to our customers as they join the community of parenthood, but the foundation of how we are transforming our business."
This fall, 'welcome to parenthood' will take shape in-store and online through educational resources, reimagined shopping experiences, a revised registry, new digital offerings and a new marketing campaign that will inspire customers to embrace every aspect of parenthood, from celebrating the small wins to cherishing the messy yet magical moments.
Through this expanded platform, parents will have access to a wealth of resources, including:
- Parenting Pros – A curated team of seasoned parents who are also professional pediatricians and therapists, who will provide guidance and advice on parenting, baby's health & wellness, and parents' self-care for every step of the way – from pregnancy to the first 1,000 days. These experts will provide industry advice and authentic content that truly welcomes buybuy BABY customers to every stage and phase of parenthood with confidence. The search for reliable information as a new parent can be overwhelming, and the Parenting Pros make it easy to find the answers on everything from pre-natal and registry planning and day one with your newborn, to potty training and safety tips.
- The Village: Working alongside The Pros is The Village, a carefully curated group of buybuy BABY parents who represent a range of different parenting stages. The Village will provide personal stories, real advice, and relatable content to share support for those going through their similar parenthood journeys.
- Digital Concierge Services: To be launched on both the buybuy BABY website and mobile app, this virtual concierge service will enable customers to chat directly with registry and product experts to get questions answered on demand. These live experts, available seven days a week, will help guide new parents through the process of choosing those lesser-known "need-to-have" items and building a registry that works perfectly for them.
- Live streaming / On Demand Content: Livestream shopping was launched recently on buybuy BABY's Facebook and Instagram channels to help parents celebrate, support and connect with one another in an authentic and highly engaging conversation, encouraging them to share real-time feedback, questions, and experiences. buybuy BABY will further build these digital channels to help demystify parenting by tackling key issues such as childbirth, infant safe sleep and bedtime routines, designing a safe and soothing nursery, car seat safety, toddler nutrition, among other important topics.
- Virtual Education: In partnership with the Mommy Mingle online educational community, buybuy BABY will host a range of online classes and free webinars covering topics like infant and child CPR, baby proofing, breastfeeding, activity ideas, behavioral challenges and pregnancy loss, ensuring the brand is there for customers no matter how difficult their journey.
- New and Exclusive Owned Brands: buybuy BABY also wants to support parent entrepreneurs and will be introducing customers to new parent-founded, buzzworthy brands. Keep an eye out on our social channels and news sites for exciting new brands coming to market.
'welcome to parenthood' is buybuy BABY's renewed promise to help make the transition to parenthood as seamless as possible and invites all customers into this new community—which is designed to support parents with the guidance and advice that's best for both them and baby.
buybuy BABY's renewed purpose is part of its parent, Bed Bath & Beyond Inc., to transform the business around the customer as a digital-first, omni-always retailer. The Company last year introduced digital services such as Buy Online Pickup in Store and Curbside Pickup, along with Same Day Delivery, and continues to innovate to put digital purchases into the hands of buybuy BABY customers even sooner.
