Safe Shades for Growing Kids

If you stopped by our showroom in our first two years, there’s a good chance you’ve met our original ‘Customer Engagement Officer’ Isabella. From the time she could crawl, Izzy was greeting guests with a grin, rearranging sample books, and occasionally helping with office work. She took her role very seriously… until toddlerhood and preschool called her away to bigger adventures.

These days, that title belongs to her little sister, Rosalyn. And while her skill set is still developing (mostly flashing drooly smiles at this point), she’s already a fixture in the showroom… and she’s officially on the move. That’s right: Rosalyn is rolling.

Which means walking, climbing, and general baby chaos isn’t far behind. And with a nearly-three-year-old already at full speed, safety has quickly climbed to the top of our household (and showroom) priority list.

Now that Rosalyn has started rolling, we are taking a fresh look around, especially at our window treatments. Since she was born, we’ve expanded the showroom, which means there’s new displays, new samples, and new things for little hands to explore (and, let’s be honest, try to taste). Those dangling cords that often go unnoticed? They can be surprisingly risky for kids and pets alike. As parents, we don’t just recommend cordless and automated window coverings, we rely on them ourselves.

From cordless honeycomb shades and motorized rollers to smart home-compatible systems, we’ve filled our own home and showroom with options that are as safe as they are stylish. No cords to pull. Nothing to get tangled. Just sleek, modern, worry-free solutions that keep our family (and yours) a little safer every day. Many of the products we carry are certified Best for Kids, a designation given only to cordless, motorized, and inaccessible cord systems that have been independently tested to ensure they’re safe around young children.

Window coverings might not be the first thing you think about when babyproofing or pet-proofing your space, but they should be. We’ve seen how quickly the “baby in the bouncer” stage turns into “toddler in the curtains.” And trust me, by the time you realize they can reach the shade cords, they’re already swinging from them like a jungle gym.

So, if you’re a parent, grandparent, dog parent, or anyone looking to upgrade your space with safety and convenience in mind, come visit us. Rosalyn will be happy to (literally) roll out the red carpet. And Izzy? She still pops in to supervise occasionally. Once a CEO, always a CEO.
