ABCMommy Inc. makes and sells unique handmade accessories for babies, mommies and the household. The company owner, Dipti Clark, personally makes the unique handmade items for sale on the website, www.ABCMommy.com.

The concept for the company was conceived in 2004 while Dipti was on a lengthy bed rest prior to having her first child. The company was officially launched in 2005 after Dipti made the decision not to return to her corporate Information Technology job.

Founder Background

Dipti has over nine years of experience in the area of Information Technology, with strong emphasis on client relations, sales & marketing, project management, and consulting. Her business focus was consumer business, and she was heavily involved in new business development for credit card services. This business focus, and her technology background, makes her an ideal owner to build a successful business.

Prior to starting ABCMommy Inc. Dipti was a Client Relations Manager for a large International bank in Illinois; prior to that she was an Assistant Vice President with another large International bank in Chicago. She began her Information Technology career with an IT consulting company, first in Pune, India, then moving to Chicago in 1997. Dipti has a Masters Degree in Computer Management and a Bachelors Degree in Commerce from the University of Pune, India.

Company Concept

While on maternity leave, friends urged Dipti to bring some of her unique handmade designs to the market. She began with one sewing machine experimenting with various patterns for bibs. She finally came up with the design for a bib that allowed the arms to be snapped off and replaced. This bib covered the babies' entire arms allowing for a "cleaner" eating experience. The bibs were a hit and the company was launched.

The name ABCMommy was used to convey a conscience message about the infusion of baby and mommy fashions to keep both sides looking hip and cool. Dipti didn't want the company name to be only baby oriented because her looks are just as much about the mothers. In fact, the fashions are trendy enough to be for anyone of any age. Dipti searches all over the World for fabrics, and leverages her family in India to supplement her product line with truly unique materials.
