Name Bubbles Partners with Start Early to Support Families From Pregnancy Through Early Childhood

At Name Bubbles, we proudly support causes that uplift families and help build stronger, more connected communities. That is why we are proud to announce a new national partnership with Start Early, a leading nonprofit dedicated to giving every child the best possible start in life, from before birth through age five.

Together, we are joining forces to support families, teachers, doulas, home visitors, and early childhood programs during the most important developmental years. As part of this partnership, Name Bubbles is contributing a $20,000 grant along with $5,000 in product donations to help strengthen Start Early’s programming and family support services across the country.

Why Start Early

For more than 40 years, Start Early has worked to ensure that families with young children have access to high-quality early learning and care. Their impact is national, reaching all 50 states and supporting more than 4 million children through innovative programs, policy wins, and research-driven solutions.

Their directly operated doula, home visiting, and Early/Head Start programs help families nurture healthy development from pregnancy through preschool. Their policy and advocacy work help shape a stronger early learning system nationwide. It is a mission that aligns deeply with what we believe in at Name Bubbles.

A Partnership Built on Support

Anyone who has spent time caring for babies, toddlers, or preschoolers knows that the early years are beautiful, but they are also busy. Founder Michelle Brandriss shares:

“As a mom, I know how beautiful and overwhelming those early years can be and how one small thing, like a label, can help bring calm to a busy day. Partnering with Start Early allows us to extend that support to families and teachers who are caring for young children every single day.”

Through this partnership, Name Bubbles labels will be incorporated directly into Start Early’s programs. Teachers, doulas, home visitors, and families will receive durable, personalized name labels to help keep bottles, clothing, learning materials, and essential gear organized. The goal is to reduce stress and help create nurturing, joyful environments where children can learn and grow.

Supporting Families Nationwide

This collaboration is part of Name Bubbles’ Labeled for Good initiative, which partners with child-focused nonprofits across the United States. Our goal is simple. We want to make life a little easier for families and the people who care for children every day.

We are honored to stand alongside Start Early in championing the power of early learning and helping more families feel supported from the very beginning.
