Gugu Guru and Juvenile Products Manufacturing Association Partner to Provide One-of-a-kind Purchasing Power and Knowledge for Parents
(PRWEB) October 07, 2015 -- The Juvenile Products Manufacturing Association (JPMA), an association dedicated to promoting the industry and safe use of juvenile products, announces its partnership with Gugu Guru, the first baby registry to offer curated “perfect match” product recommendations for new and expecting parents based on lifestyle, personal style and product preferences.
In a market with thousands of baby products, choosing the best fitting and, most importantly, safest products for a new baby can quickly become overwhelming. An official partnership with the JPMA has upgraded the personalized service even further, by offering objective baby product safety information, guidelines and best practices.
"While Gugu Guru provides a fun and personalized experience for parents, access to product safety information is still a critical consideration when building a baby registry,” said Monica Banks, founder of Gugu Guru. "I am thrilled to be partnering with the JPMA – an organization that with its members, is dedicated to meeting and exceeding industry standards on product safety. “
Through education, certification and consumer-facing initiatives like Baby Safety Zone, JPMA and its members have made the safety of families a top priority. JPMA is a non-profit association representing over 200 manufacturers who make 95 percent of the prenatal to preschool products in the US market.
JPMA safety information will be integrated into the Gugu Guru registry experience to further inform the purchasing decisions of new parents in the market. In addition, products that are JPMA Certified will be specifically noted. Safety information will be updated regularly within the Gugu Guru site and the partnership will continue to evolve into the future.
“We are very happy to be partnering with Gugu Guru,” said Kelly Mariotti, Executive Director of JPMA. “By working together, we can reach a wider audience, ensuring that our safety messages, guidelines and best practices are being received by those who need them the most.”
