Exciting news, y’all! I’ve been secretly pregnant and I’m thrilled to introduce our newest baby. Meet Child Label, my first real business baby. It’s where you can get awesome labels for your child. Or yourself.
Starting a business is both scary and exciting. Scary because if it flops, it’s basically an epic disaster and I’ll have to feed my kids plain rice and water for several years. But also exciting at the same time because it’s always been my dream to be the boss of me and have a fancy title like Big Boss.
It’s also a lot like being pregnant. The past couple of months, we’ve been working real hard on this, coming up with the best designs, colors, copy and making sure the quality of the labels are the best we can find. And finally, it’s like we’re giving birth to a super cute, colorful and shiny new baby – which as far as babies go, are the best kind to have.
It all started way back when I wanted to get some customized name labels for Truett. Everything we found were too tacky, boring and of pretty bad quality. I wanted something that was simple, clean, yet gorgeous enough to turn heads. And of course, something that would last so I didn’t have to get all frustrated scraping out sticker remnants after every few washes.
During this hunt, the idea for Child Label was born. Soon after, I found some insanely talented slave bunnies who got sold on the idea and we’ve been hard at work ever since.
We’re starting small – with passionate worker bunnies, a bunch of incredible designs, and a whole lot of ideas to introduce in the months to come.
The journey up to this point has been incredible and we hope you’ll love these labels as much as we do. Seriously, labeling is addictive and extremely contagious. Not to mention, very useful too.
So stop by, shop a little and have fun browsing the designs.
As is customary, there’ll be a giveaway. Come visit us on Facebook to select your favorite designs and leave a comment here on which design and size you would like to get. Contest ends on Sunday 26 June midnight and 3 winners will be selected randomly.
PS. Not necessary for the contest but do like our page on Facebook ok? Invite all your friends too!
Update: We have 3 winners! Congrats to Qiu Xian (#5), Kelly (#18) and Gina (#7). You’ll be receiving an email shortly to confirm the designs and names to be printed. Thanks everyone for joining the contest.

Hi Daphne,
This is really too cool! Congrats on the opening of your online business. I’ll definitely login to your Facebook to check out the cute designs.
I’ve been thinking of opening my own blogshop too, but unfortunately, I don’t think I have time to manage it now. Hopefully, I can do it in future.
Once again, congrats and all the best to your new venture! I’m sure it will be lots of FUN too. :)
Thanks Emily! Appreciate the support
Congrats on your new business! It’s great to know that there are mompreneurs with kids specially in mind. My daughter has had her bottles and even uniform mixed up so this is definatly an awesome idea. Love it more that you’re introducing Chinese!
Will check out the Facebook page and spread the word! All the best!
Ya me too! One time Tru came home wearing a different sized uniform and i was fairly certain it wasn’t his but it wasn’t labeled so I wasn’t able to find back his set. Certainly hope the labels help! =)
And thanks for helping to spread the word too!
Wow! Liked ur page alr, am liking the designs. Although I know ur still in the works, thought it wld be great if you got real girly designs (u know like real PINK and all).. Was looking through and there were few girly girl if ya know what I mean :))
Congrats on the birth of ur ‘baby’!
Excellent suggestion Madeline! The slave bunnies will be working on a super girly princess collection…stay tuned!
OMG congrats on this! I was looking for cool labels like these for Nat when he started school! And couldn’t find ANY!
YAY to this!
Me too!! Which is why I started making them myself. Hope you have fun shopping.
Hi Daphne,
congrats on your new baby! Its really great to do your own thing and be in control of what you do. Haha, this is my third time entering your giveaway and I hope 3rd time’s the charm!
If I won, it’ll be Round Label Cutiee Crawlies for my boy!
Haha I hope you win too! Thanks for taking part in the contest. 3 times. =)
congrats on the new venture! I’ve been ordering labels from overseas and having Chinese characters is definitely something new. Will swing by for some sometime :)
Thanks Beanbean! Looking forward!
Hihi,
Congrats on your new venture.
Will love to have the round labels Alien Invasion labels.
I have been looking for name labels for my son – Mainly because he can’t really talk yet and sometimes I have this real fear that he may run off and get lost in crowded places so I thought a name label (maybe a pinned badge or something) with his name and our phone numbers on it would be really useful if someone found him. I have been thinking of making one myself because I can’t find anything in the market. Just an idea for you :)
Thanks for the suggestion. We’ll work on this too, stay tuned! My kids will need lots of this.
Been following your blog for awhile.. and I love your writings.. =)
Congrats on your new baby.. Love the Cute crawlies and would love to hv them.. =)
Thanks Darienna! =)
Ah hah! Chinese labels! What an ace idea! I know where to go for them when I need Them! Congrats Daphne! How exciting!!
Hi! Congrats on your new baby and good luck with the new venture! Lovin Under The Sea!
Congratulation!! I’m really very curious how u manage 2 kids, household chores, and plus now another new baby. Please share it on your blog: I love reading your blog very much.
I want to take part in the contest, though my son is only 5 mths plus hee…
Don’t worry! I won’t let him put those cutie stickers into his mouth :)
I want the car version, any size will do.
Maybe u can get your partners to design cute chinese zodiac for the stickers.
Btw, why u called your partners tiny slave bunnies?
Thanks Euniece! Haha, actually I watch the 2 kids, do (some) household chores, write the blog, write another blog for outlet.com, write a ton of other stuff, and still have time to start a business.
But on the flip side, I sleep very little, my house looks like a warzone, my kids occasionally eat cornflakes for lunch and I sometimes forget to bathe them.
Oh, and my partners are called slave bunnies because I keep them in my basement and feed them carrots in exchange for work. They’re very cute and fluffy though!
Congrats, this is just what I need for my pre-school going bub!
I would like the small rectangle alien designs please!
Quick update: you guys were supposed to select which designs you wanted in order to take part in the contest but as long as you left a comment and a valid email address, I’ll include you in the contest ok!
I love the idea!!! Oh my gosh… It would be purrfect for preschoolers. Haha! (P.S. I love the split name packs – how totally thoughtful to mothers of more than 1)
I’d love those small rectangular ones (but you know, I’d probably still be ordering nonetheless. Hahaha)
hihi
love reading your blog, very inspiring:)
love the dinos!
Really awesome labels! I’ve been hunting around but nothing in the market caught my eye! These are perfect – size, cutie prints, cheery colors and in both English/Chinese name! Will be hopping by to order some! :)
Lurrrrve those alien invasion/rocket science designs!
Wow! Awesome child labels. You are indeed a supermom!
Wish you every success in this new venture!
Congrats on your new venture! May your business grow and prosper!
Will love to have the mushroom series!
Ah hah! Chinese labels! What an ace idea! I know where to go for them when I need Them! Congrats Daphne! How exciting!!
>>> that doofus who forgot to fill in the blanks was me – the Mom who never lost her pregnant brain
I like the mushroom kingdom (followed very closely by cutie crawlies)!
I ordered from an overseas online website before, and the quality was good as well, but I agree with the rest that being able to mix in Chinese characters is an awesome idea! And your stickers also also multi-coloured which makes them even prettier! :)
Congrats Daphne! This is such an awesome and fun baby to have! =) I will definitely swing by to get some when the Bub starts school!
Love love love the sugar & spice round label.
Congrats on your new baby! This is a really helpful and also cool idea, especially for school-going kiddos! All the best for your venture!
CONGRATS babe! :) I think its an awesome venture, and the labels look great! Liked the FB page already! :) And those dino stickers… I even want them for myself! ;)

Hi Daphne
Congrats on ur biz and love reading ur blog!
Just a qn: will the Chinese name labels be available for the words to be horizontal instead of vertical?
thanks :)
Xiaowei, from AHS ;)
Xiaowei! Yes, for old times sake, we’ll start doing horizontal labels just for you :)
Hey Daphne, I really like these labels and will like to order them. The thing is, I am in China and facebook is still banned. Is there any other way I could order these for my kids? Thanks!
Hi Chee, I’ve sent you an email! In short, yes, you can send me your order via email and I’ll process them for you. :)
Hey, I ordered some labels from you previously for #1 and loved it! Now #2 is heading off to school and I wanted to order from you again but couldn’t find this anymore! :((
