This year's International Women's Day is appropriately themed: Inspire Inclusion. "When women themselves are inspired to be included, there's a sense of belonging, relevance, and empowerment. Worldwide, women must be included in all fields of endeavour." - International Women's Day
Such an action is a proven catalyst for driving societal development, improving school attendance and quality nutrition for children, and making strides in poverty and inequality reduction. A simple step for parents looking to encourage the inclusivity of women in business, is to be mindful of what you're buying for your growing bub.
To celebrate International Women’s Day this year, the Redsbaby team has handpicked a selection of our favourite baby brands led, designed, or run to support women. Consider these fantastic companies as you gear up for the arrival and growth of your child - we hope you love them as much as we do!
