Revolutionary VIVA! Plant Net - Prevents Children, Pets from Digging in the Soil of Potted Plants
Summit Baby, Inc introduces a high stretch fishnet type tubular fabric that covers the pot and soil. The netting is durable enough to withstand stretching and twisting without unraveling, but still allows water to go through to penetrate the soil so the net never needs to be removed.
Summit, NJ (PRWEB) June 26, 2006 - Summit Baby, Inc., launches VIVA! Plant Net, a revolutionary way to prevent children and pets from digging in the soil of potted plants.
Parents, plant lovers and pet lovers alike have shared a common concern that has never been properly addressed. Both pets and small children love to get messy and dig in the soil of potted plants - spreading the soil or even eating it! VIVA! Plant Net provides the solution to this long unsolved problem.
Summit Baby, Inc introduces a high stretch fishnet type tubular fabric that covers the pot and soil to create a barrier which small paws and hands can't get through. The netting is durable enough to withstand stretching and twisting without unraveling, but still allows water to go through to penetrate the soil - so the net never needs to be removed.
Initially, Summit Baby focused its research on the toddler market, but then realized the potential market of pet owners as well. There was nothing suitable on the market for use with household pets that was durable or did not involve chemicals applied to the pot surface.
VIVA! Plant Net stretches several times it's original diameter to reach around the pot and still comes back to cover the top of the pot, therefore it can conform to any pot shape or variety. VIVA! Plant Net is long-lasting and non- toxic as well.
VIVA! Plant Net, or "Pet Net", as it is also called, comes in three sizes S, M and L to fit pots up to 16" in diameter. Depending on demand, larger sizes, fitting up to several feet diameter pots to cover architectural, sidewalk and wintergarden plaza tree pots will be available later, as well as different color options.
Summit Baby has filed worldwide patents for the VIVA! Plant Net and is currently seeking distribution channels and licensees for the product.
Currently VIVA! Plant Net is available to be purchased from www.summitbaby.com

The First product, VIVA! Breastfeeding Pillow will be introduced for European Distribution at the Kind & Jugend Show.
Happy mothers raise happy children! VIVA! Nursing Pillow is designed to maximize cleanliness, comfort and ease of use.
-All kinds of spills always happen, but no problem. The fabric cover can be removed and machine-washed, and the inner plastic, inflatable pillow can be wiped clean with a soapy cloth. Inflatable cell structure provides rigid and secure base for the baby.
-Mother's back often hurts when nursing due to improper positioning & stress. VIVA!'s unique back support prevents this from happening. The back support can be adjusted in firmness and placement to best suit each individual woman's needs.
Mothers' shoulders and neck usually get tired when holding the baby in her arms. With VIVA's design this problem is, if not avoided, but is eased by providing a big, supportive front pillow, where child can rest - relieving weight on mother's arms. Mother's arms are supported by wide elbow rests.
-Patented, over the armrests and around the waist strap keeps the pillow from sliding away and tilting down. The silent hook closure enables attaching and releasing of the strap by one-handed operation and flexible strap enables mother to remove the entire pillow while seated, without waking the baby.
VIVA! Nursing Pillow is manufactured following the highest environmental and consumer safety norms in the USA and EU. Pillow fabric is made of 100% cotton, which meets or exceeds the strictest Eco-Tex 100 standard. Viva! Breastfeeding pillow is essential for a new mom. It is a perfect baby shower gift.
"I designed VIVA! to give the best support and most personalized fit for every woman. Breastfeeding can be a difficult experience for so many women. I suffered from back and shoulder pains myself and wanted to develop a better product to help in this critical time," says Tuoriniemi.

2007 Best Product - VIVA! Breastfeeding Pillow - Summit Baby is proud to be an iParenting Media Award Winner
"After our first exciting year on the US market we are happy to be rewarded with such valuable recognition," tells Cornelia Tuoriniemi, president of Summit Baby, Inc. "This will be an exciting year: We will be expanding production capacity and will soon come out with novel products."
Summit, NJ (PRWEB) March 9, 2007 -- Summit Baby's Viva! Nursing pillow has been recognized by appreciated iParenting Media Award. iParenting Media's ISO 9001:2000 certified Award Program provides a credible and objective method of determining the best products in the children's and juvenile products industries. ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the world's largest developer of standardization regulations and ISO 9001:2000 is an internationally recognized standard for quality assurance.
In objective selection process reviewers said the following about VIVA! Breastfeeding Pillows:
"I loved the back pillow! Using this product made me realize how poorly supported my back is when I nurse. I also really like the fact that the pillow is inflatable. It makes it feasible for travel, and easy to store at grandparents, babysitters, etc. It's great that you can wash the cover too! Other nursing pillows are really difficult to keep clean, and I've found that after prolonged use, they become downright distasteful." Praised reviewer #1/ iParenting Media Awards
| The 'VIVA! Breastfeeding Pillow' helps to support nursing moms. The pillow supports both your arms as well as your back. The outer covering could be removed and machine washed which is wonderful. |
"The fact that it is easy to wipe-clean and washable are some of the most positive qualities of this item. Most importantly, it's the back support-- it's awesome! The fact that it can be deflated in order to pack for traveling is also a plus and the packaging/instructions were very good and easy to understand." Said reviewer #3/ iParenting Media Awards.

New "3C" Infant Carrier with Breastfeeding Privacy Cover and Changing Pad
Summit Baby Inc is launching a new baby carrier with breastfeeding Moms in mind. The carrier combines all the best features of carriers from around the world and throughout history. The open minded solution is carried out and made of modern materials and using the latest technology.
Summit, NJ (PRWEB) June 21, 2007 -- Summit Baby Inc. is launching a unique new baby carrier. "The '3C Carrier' combines the best features of carriers throughout history and adds new and novel features to make it unique," reveals Cornelia Tuoriniemi, President and CEO.
Mixing native and historical elements from South-American Indian Slings which offer comfortable over the shoulder straps and North-American Indian Papoose design having a straight back support and swaddled cocoon position with modern breastfeeding covers and the convenience of a changing pad creates the strikingly different profile of 3C from other slings or carriers.
These diverse features were all combined by Euro-American innovation and origami-related study on how to fold a square piece of foam to make a baby carrier. Eventually everything was made possible by modern materials and fastener technology. The final product is carefully manufactured in Europe. "We call it by the nickname 'Kukkaro' - 'purse' (Finnish) to keep something valuable & safe, or we call it by it's function, in short '3C'."
C is for Carry
"In a world full of all variation of slings and wraps with complicated tying/wearing instructions that require maneuvering your baby up, down and sideways to get her into (or out of) the carrier -- Now finally a carrier that you can just slip on and off without even waking up your little one!" continues an enthusiastic Tuoriniemi.
"Finally you can leave your infant swaddled and feel secure that you can put her down -- or pass her to Dad or Grandma and they can take over carrying her. No complicated instructions. No fear of waking baby. 3C fits all caregivers. And you can put 3C down like a portable bassinet. It even works as a receiving blanket when you want to show off your little one."
3C has a firm elongated 24-inch neck and back support to keep a newborn's spine and neck straight. Because of this fantastic support, this revolutionary carrier can be used even with most preemies.
C is for Cover
The 3C Carrier has a patent pending breastfeeding cover attached around the rim of the bassinet opening. When not used, the cover folds down. However, Mom can easily and discreetly breastfeed her baby in public by pulling the cover over her shoulder for privacy creating a private breastfeeding environment. The cover also protects a newborn against sun and weather.
C is for Change
The 3C Carrier opens flat to be a changing pad on the go. Mom does not need to carry a separate padded changing pad. The tail of the carrier easily houses one or two diapers and pack of wipers. Summit Baby "Parachute" -- the world's lightest, palm fitting, changing pad protector is recommended in order to prevent the carrier from soiling.
