My name is Sam and I am mum to Isabella aged 21 months and co owner of http://www.indybel.com/ with my business partner Lesley. The site is named after both our daughters, India and Isabella.
We launched indybel in August 2008. The site is an online store for pregnancy and baby in Spain and we specialise in British, International, innovative and organic pregnancy and baby products. We stock lots of products which can't be found elsewhere in Spain such as Seraphine Maternity Wear, Natalia, Bambino Merino, Cuddledry, Inch Blue and Bio D, as well as more elusive items such as raspberry leaf tea, birthing balls, natural nappies and playpens.
Other brands include Bumpband, pregnancy and baby books, Hippychick, Shade-a-babe, Dream Genii, BabyDan and Baby Bjorn.
Lesley and I met in 2007 via a great site called http://www.mumsinspain.com/ It's a fab resource and forum for all mums in Spain and is a great way to find out info when you are pregnant and for help and reasurance once you've given birth. Having a baby in Spain can be a scary experience for those of us who are not native and so sites such as mumsinspain are a lifesaver.
Lesley and I live near Fuengirola in Malaga which is where Indybel is based, but we deliver throughout mainland Spain and the Islands. Please check out our site at http://www.indybel.com/ and let us know what you think and if you have any ideas for other products we could be stocking. Our aim is not compete with the Spanish baby shops ( which are great ) but to offer different and new products and particularly those currently not in Spain or which are difficult to find here in Spain.
I'm sure we'll have lots of up's and down's as we set out on our new business venture and we'll post them all here as hopefully our stories will help other mums thinking of or setting up a business in Spain!
