ToddlerTrunk.com, an Online Marketplace for Parents, is Named One of momstown Top 13 Businesses

TORONTO - March 21, 2013 - PRLog -- Toronto, ON --  ToddlerTrunk.com, an online marketplace and community for parents, has been named one of the momstown Top 13 online businesses for moms and families.

To coincide with the unveiling of the momstown Top 13, ToddlerTrunk launched in every Canadian community that has a momstown chapter. This was ToddlerTrunk’s largest launch to date. ToddlerTrunk welcomed seventeen new communities to the site: Victoria, Winnipeg, Central Alberta, Barrie, Burlington, Brampton, Georgina- East Gwillimbury, Guelph, Hamilton, Kitchener-Waterloo, London, Milton, Mississauga, Newmarket-Aurora, Niagara, Oakville, and Ottawa.

ToddlerTrunk.com provides a way to buy and sell children’s stuff. Items on ToddlerTrunk include new and gently used clothes, toys, furniture, and strollers. Items are organized by type, gender, and age, making it easy for parents to find the stuff they need.

In addition to buying and selling items, users give items away in exchange for Rubies. A Ruby has a value of $10.00. When users join the site, they receive five Rubies that they can trade for children’s items. To celebrate the momstown Top 13 launch, momstown members will receive 10 free Rubies when they join ToddlerTrunk.com. Users also receive Rubies for posting items and logging into the site.

Unlike other resale sites, ToddlerTrunk.com tries to put a face on everyone’s profile to create a community of parents in local neighbourhoods. Users have the option of signing into the site with their Facebook or Twitter accounts, so users have a better chance of knowing if the seller or the buyer is a friend, a neighbour, or an acquaintance. ToddlerTrunk.com also provides online community space for parents.

"Meeting other moms and dads can be challenging when you’re a busy parent," said Jennifer Scace, CEO. “We make it easy for moms and dads to connect with other local parents, while decluttering their homes of unneeded children’s items. We also help parents save money on great stuff for their little ones.”
