The Name Bubbles Press Kit
What's In a Bubble? Much More Than a Name.
Name Bubbles began because of a problem many parents have, Michelle Brandriss was frustrated that her son Cooper’s belongings kept getting lost at daycare—her homemade permanent marker-and-masking-tape labeling system simply wasn’t cutting it. The handwritten labels were falling off and mix-ups were happening, Michelle knew she wasn't the only parent dealing with lost items—after all, other kids’ bottles were somehow ending up in her son's bag.
In search of a solution and sensing a business opportunity, Michelle began researching printing methods and product materials for labels to be dishwasher and laundry safe. In January of 2009, Name Bubbles came to life and began selling waterproof kids labels around the world.
Fast forward 17 years, and Name Bubbles is one of the largest companies of its kind. Michelle grew her business from a basement office startup to an industry leader reaching 90,000+ families a year in over 50 countries around the world. Her formula became the company mantra, produce an excellent product and deliver a happy customer experience.
A special sentiment Michelle has is that Name Bubbles are growing up with children around the world. From babies to big kids, their special name labels stick with them every step of the way and were customized with love.
